Product attributes

Enable meta fields in product attributes

To enable meta fields for a specific WooCommerce product attribute, add a Taxonomy rule in the group’s field location settings.

Retrieve meta field values

Because WooCommerce doesn't use a dedicated MySQL table for product attribute metadata, the values are stored in the standard wc_options table.

Each meta field follows this key format:

wc_attribute_{boxname}_{fieldname}_{product-attribute_id}

Example: wc_attribute_metabox_textfield_3.

There are several ways to retrieve these values using ACPT:

Shortcode

Use the following shortcode:

[acpt_wc_pa pa="1" box="boxname" field="fieldname"]

ACPT functions

You can use all standard ACPT functions.

Simply replace post_id with wc_product_attribute.

Example:

get_acpt_field([
    'wc_product_attribute' => 3,
    'box_name' => 'boxname',
    'field_name' => 'fieldname'
]);

Legacy WordPress functions

If you prefer, you can access the raw value using the standard get_option() function:

get_option("wc_attribute_{boxname}_{fieldname}_{product-attribute_id}")
