Hi,
I have successfully managed to add a custom category attribute with the following code:
<?php
// initialize magento environment for 'default' store
require_once 'app/Mage.php';
Mage::app('default');
echo "initialising";
echo runAdd();
echo "finishing";
function runAdd()
{
$setup = new Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Setup('core_setup');
// below code will add text attribute
$setup->addAttribute('catalog_category', 'test_field', array(
'group' => 'General',
'input' => 'text',
'type' => 'varchar',
'label' => 'a new text field',
'backend' => '',
'visible' => 1,
'required' => 0,
'user_defined' => 1,
'global' => Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Attribute::SCOPE_GLOBAL,
));
}
found here
Can anyone tell me if this is the correct, future proof way of adding a category attribute?
Also if anyone knows, how to delete this attribute too?
Many thanks
