As shown elsewhere, you can add an attribute to the category entity in Magento. If the attribute is of type select, getting the text value of an option is a bit of a pain:
$category = Mage::getModel(‘catalog/category’)->load(10);
$attribute = Mage::getSingleton(‘eav/config’)->getAttribute(‘catalog_category’, ‘myattribute_code’);
$text = $attribute->getSource()->getOptionText($category->getMyattributeCode());
It was a sad morning here at iFuel Interactive. We got into the office today, and noticed that out beloved water cooler was making an odd noise. Rick went to go get some water for the coffee pot, and noticed that the entire machine was very hot, and water that was being dispensed out was boiling hot (even from the cold dispenser). He quickly unplugged the water cooler, and took out the 5 gallon water jug. Something must have happened to the heating coils, as it even started to melt the mouth of the jug. Thank goodness this didn’t happen over the weekend, or who knows what could have happened.
The holiday season is in full swing, and I’m slowly getting into the spirit of things. I listen to my holiday radio station on Pandora, and changed my desktop wallpaper to that of various festive winter scenes. Plus, I just bought a lovely dress to wear to my holiday parties, and I’m almost done with all my shopping.
After all the hard work that goes into preparing for the holidays, it is important to sit back, relax, and enjoy the time-honored tradition of putting up Christmas lights on one’s home.
(This is my absolute favorite YouTube video ever!)
Happy Holidays!
As the holiday season quickly approaches, lest we forget all that we have to be thankful for:
“I have too much to be thankful for. I can’t take anything for granted.”
-RN
“Family, friends, food and a new Muppets movie.”
-BS
“Thankful for the people at iFuel (seriously!), a new home, awesome wife, baby on the way and God’s many blessings this year.”
-RW
“I am thankful for my Mom and Dad, they raised me and they tried all their best to make me the guy that I am now. Mom and Dad- thank you very much.”
-NM
“I am thankful for my family, my Lobster, my friends, and my sisters. No matter what hardships we may face, it is important to remember all that we still have.”
-JD
As active members of the iFuel Party Planning Committee, Tom and myself brought in some fine delicacies to celebrate NM’s birthday.
The celebration included: chocolate cake, brownies, and a variety of donuts. Everyone enjoyed the party, however, now everyone wants to take a nap.
Happy Birthday NM!!
