This little script is an excellent time saver for adding a new attribute to all of the attribute sets configured in your Magento store.

There are a few attributes to update:

  • Replace **ATTRIBUTE CODE** with the code of the attribute you wish to add.
  • Replace **ATTRIBUTE GROUP NAME** with the group name
  • Replace **SORT ORDER** with sort order you want it to display, as you’d expect.

Upload the script to the Magento root folder and hit with your browser.
