    Hi,

    I’m having trouble to get the value of a selectbox displayed in frontend.

    I have hooked an extra custom (product) field to the single product page.

    I create a custom field in backend:

    function extra_product_field() {
woocommerce_wp_select(
	array(
		'id' => 'myfieldname',
		'label' => __( 'My Select Field', 'woocommerce' ),
		'options' => array(
			'one' => __( 'Option 1', 'woocommerce' ),
			'two' => __( 'Option 2', 'woocommerce' ),
			'three' => __( 'Option 3', 'woocommerce' )
) ) );

}
add_action( 'woocommerce_product_options_pricing', 'extra_product_field' );

    Save it:

    update_post_meta( $post_id, 'myfieldname', esc_attr( $_POST['myfieldname'] ) );

    Display value in frontend:

    function show_extra_product_field() {
	echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'myfieldname', true);
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'show_extra_product_field' );

    Step 3 is causing this, in frontend this is displayed when I choose Option 2 in backend: ‘two’

    How can I display the value in stead of the option, it should be: ‘Option 2’

    Found it after 2 days of searching and testing, a simple if statement does the job!

    function show_extra_product_field() {

$value = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'myfieldname', true);
if($value == 'one') {
    echo __('<li>Option 1</li>');
}
else if($value == 'two') {
    echo __('<li>Option 2</li>');
}
else if($value == 'three') {
    echo __('<li>Option 3</li>');
} 

}
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'show_extra_product_field' );

    Hi,

    On my ipad your post is empty.. Moderator removed it perhaps. If you’re adding pieces of code please add the code tag above and underneath your code.

    Btw, step one and two are in file functions of your theme and step three is your template file.

    Hi Guido – I actually figured out the problem and it wouldn’t let me delete my question so I deleted the content. Sorry about that!

    Thank you for getting back!

    Aha, I understand now.
    And I have made a mistake in my previous response: all three steps are in file fuctions.
