Cron Job - translated products displaying as not having attributes

Started by: dimitrisD-7 in: English Support
Quick solution available

Problem:
You are encountering an issue where, after running a job every hour to update products and attributes in the primary language, the translated products appear without attributes despite having translated attributes created.
Solution:
We recommend using WPML API hooks to update the attributes of translated products programmatically after updating the attributes of default language products. Here is an example code designed for a cron job context:

add_action('wssupp_custom_cron_job', 'wssupp_custom_task_function');<br />function wssupp_custom_task_function() {<br /><br />    // update the product attributes of a specific product as a demo<br />    $product_id = 21;<br />    $attribute = 'pa_color';<br />    $term_slug = 'yellow';<br /><br />    $original_term = get_term_by( 'slug', $term_slug, $attribute );<br />    $default_language = apply_filters( 'wpml_default_language', NULL );<br /><br />    // Step 1. Programmatically set product attribute for sample default-language post<br />    wp_set_object_terms( $product_id, $term_slug, $attribute );<br /><br />    // Step 2. Get the translations of the product to other languages<br />    $product_trid = apply_filters( 'wpml_element_trid', NULL, $product_id, 'post_product' );<br />    $product_translations = apply_filters( 'wpml_get_element_translations', NULL, $product_trid, 'post_product' );<br /><br />    // Step 3. Get the term translations<br />    $term_trid = apply_filters( 'wpml_element_trid', NULL, $original_term->term_id, 'tax_'.$attribute );<br />    $term_translations = apply_filters( 'wpml_get_element_translations', NULL, $term_trid, 'tax_'.$attribute );<br /><br />    // Step 4. Iterate over the product translations and update product attribute for each<br />    foreach ($product_translations as $lang => $product_translation) {<br /><br />        if ( $lang == $default_language ) {<br />            continue; // skip default language<br />        }<br /><br />        wp_set_object_terms( $product_translation->element_id, $term_translations[$lang]->term_id, $attribute );<br />    }<br />}<br />

For further details, refer to our WPML Hooks Reference. You should adjust the code to your needs.
