PHP Fatal Error When Using Shortcodes

FYI Here is Line 50 from the price.phtml file:

$_specialPriceStoreLabel = $this->getProductAttribute(‘special_price’)->getStoreLabel();

I wasn’t sure if that was a standard or a custom file, so I wanted to provide the relevant line of code.

Hi neoloki,

This is a default Magento file, so probably best not to edit! Could you show me a screenshot of your mwi settings?

Also, could you test the shortcode with the price hidden?

Thanks,
James

Using the shortcode with the price hidden (as follows) seems to work just fine!

[mwi_product sku=”style-9144″ title=”true” title_tag=”h2″ desc=”true” img=”true” img_width=”200″ price=”false” type=”add” btn_color=”blue” btn_link=”button” cols=”3″/]

Originally I was using the shortcode like this:

[mwi_product sku=”style-9144″/]

And was getting the error I described above. Using the shortcode in this manner still does not work.

What happens if you change the website code setting to base? Just for testing purposes, you can change it back afterwards.

If I change the code setting to “base” and leave the price disabled then everything works fine. However, if I enable the price, I get the same PHP Fatal error PLUS another error that may be unrelated. Here they are:

Very strange. Could you send WP, Mage and FTP logins to [email protected] and I’ll take a look.

Thanks.

I sent the credentials on 9/6 and have not had any contact since. Can you please provide me with an update here?

Another question has also come up:

This is a multi-store install of Magento, and when I place a product on a WordPress page it automatically links to the primary store version of the product. Is there any way to have it link to the other store?

[Moderator Note: No bumping, thank you.]

Hi Neoloki,

As I’m sure you’ll understand, I have a large number of support requests, and only I handle them whilst working full time.

Did you make sure to mention your username/link to the page in your email, as I can’t find any emails mentioning it.

I will re-send them.

I re-sent the credentials a week ago. Has there been any progress on this issue?

Hi Neoloki,

I have replied already to any emails in my support account. Have you checked junk?

Are you using Magento 1.8? In 1.8 the default price.html file got that extra code added at line 50.

Anyway, you can make your own price.html file and edit the code in it. The solution used is to create this file in your theme path to override the base file, so you would create a new file:

/app/design/frontend/yourTheme/default/template/catalog/product/price.phtml

and copy all the code from

/app/design/frontend/base/default/template/catalog/product/price.phtml
into it.

Then change line 50 from

$_specialPriceStoreLabel = $this->getProductAttribute('special_price')->getStoreLabel();
to

if ($myTheme_dummy = $this->getProductAttribute('special_price')){
 $_specialPriceStoreLabel = $myTheme_dummy->getStoreLabel();
 }

Then upload this file to your server. (if you are using the default Magento theme because you bring everything into WordPress then use design/frontend/default/default/template/catalog/product/price.html to override the file – or even just change the base/default/... file; it’s discouraged but for your set up and this fairly benign edit it you should be fine).

Hi Malachy,

Thanks for the fix – frustrating that the error is occurring! Here is the file under version control for future reference, with instructions:
