Magento addAttribute to a specific product tab (admin)

Is it possible to use the addAttribute function to add an attribute directly to a specific product new & edit tab? For example the price tab?

Solution

  • Sure, just specify the tab by attribute 'group':

    $installer->addAttribute('catalog_product', 'my_custom_product_attr',
    array(
        ...
        'group' => 'Tab XY',
        ...
    ));

    You may also want to order your attribute inside the tab. You can do this by specifying the attribute position:

    $installer->addAttribute('catalog_product', 'my_custom_product_attr',
    array(
        ...
        'group' => 'Tab XY',
        'position' => Z
        ...
    ));
