I've seen multiple answers to how to move or remove all custom attributes and there is documentation on how to remove boilerplate attributes like dimension and SKU, but I still can't seem to find a snippet, filter or hook detailing how to go about removing a single specific "custom" attribute.
In our case, the custom attribute we have in use is useful for backend reasons, but we'd rather not show it on the frontend. I'm aware of the tick-box in product data for attributes while in admin making an attribute not visible, but I'm handling over 2,000 products...it just wouldn't be a practical approach to tick it for each one.
(EDIT)
I was finally able to source an example on how to do this.
@helgatheviking hit upon the base of coding needed to make this happen.
function my_attribute_hider ( $attributes ) {
if ( isset( $attributes['pa_attribute-name'] ) ){
unset( $attributes['pa_attribute-name'] );
}
return $attributes;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_product_attributes', 'my_attribute_hider' );
Be sure to replace attribute-name w/ your attribute's unique slug.
