I need to get a list of all the "sizes" from my Table type field column. The list of sizes needs to be separated by a "|"... eg: small|medium|large

My Table type field name is "productAttributes" and the column in that field is "size".

How can I string together the results of a For Each loop to create a new variable with Twig?

  • For what it's worth... Selvin taught me how to do this once but I can't remember! – Anna_MediaGirl♦ Jun 26 '14 at 17:44
  • Do you want this in PHP or Twig? Is this a custom table for a plugin. – Bryan Redeagle Jun 26 '14 at 17:53
  • For Twig... This is data stored in a "Table" field type... not a custom plugin. – Anna_MediaGirl♦ Jun 26 '14 at 18:01
  • might be worth clarifying this in the question so it is more useful for people viewing this in future... – Ben Croker Jun 26 '14 at 18:04

If I understood your question correctly then you should be able to do it as follows:

{% set sizes = [] %}

{% for productAttribute in entry.productAttributes %}
    {% set sizes = sizes|merge([productAttribute.size]) %}
{% endfor %}

{% set sizes = sizes|join('|') %}

The sizes variable will then be a string containing the pipeline separated sizes, for example:

small|medium|large
