I am trying to create some additional functionality on my Woocommerce backend where I add a custom field to the variations section of backend of Woocommerce. However I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the current variation id so I can get the post meta.
here is what I have been working with:
<?php
// Get variations
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'product_variation',
'post_status' => array( 'private', 'publish' ),
'numberposts' => -1,
'orderby' => 'menu_order',
'order' => 'asc',
'post_parent' => $post->ID
);
$variations = get_posts( $args );
foreach ( $variations as $variation ) {
$variation_id = absint( $variation->ID );$variable_id = $this['variation_id'];
$variation_post_status = esc_attr( $variation->post_status );
$variation_data = get_post_meta( $variation_id );
$variation_data['variation_post_id'] = $variation_id;
echo get_post_meta( $variation_data['variation_post_id'], '_my_custom_field', true) . ' - TEST';
}
?>
When I check the backend it looks like it is pulling all the post meta into each variation like this:
However if I use the actual variation id like the below then it works for that variation:
echo get_post_meta( 134, '_my_custom_field', true) . ' - Test Variation #134';
UPDATE:
Here is everything in its entirety in case this helps.
// Display Fields
add_action( 'woocommerce_product_after_variable_attributes', 'variable_fields' );
//JS to add fields for new variations
add_action( 'woocommerce_product_after_variable_attributes_js', 'variable_fields_js' );
// Save Fields
add_action( 'woocommerce_process_product_meta_variable', 'variable_fields_process', 10, 1 );
function variable_fields( $loop, $variation_data, $variation ) {
?>
<tr>
<td>
<div>
<label><?php _e( 'My Custom Field', 'woocommerce' ); ?></label>
<input type="text" size="5" name="my_custom_field[<?php echo $loop; ?>]" value="<?php echo $variation_data['_my_custom_field'][0]; ?>"/>
<?php
if (isset( $_POST['variable_sku'] ) ) :
$variable_sku = $_POST['variable_sku'];
$variable_post_id = $_POST['variable_post_id'];
$variable_custom_field = $_POST['my_custom_field'];
for ( $i = 0; $i < sizeof( $variable_sku ); $i++ ) :
$variation_id = (int) $variable_post_id[$i];
if ( isset( $variable_custom_field[$i] ) ) {
update_post_meta( $variation_id, '_my_custom_field', stripslashes( $variable_custom_field[$i] ) );
}
echo get_post_meta( $variation_id, '_my_custom_field', true) . ' - Test';
endfor;
endif;
//works echo get_post_meta( 134, '_my_custom_field', true) . ' - Test 134';
