Adding custom attribute to category doesn't show store specific value

[maxxeh1]

Created a custom short_description attribute following the exact ways to create as shown in module-catalog/Setup/CategorySetup.php and module-catalog/view/adminhtml/ui_component/category_form.xml

Preconditions

1. Magento 2.4-develop

Steps to reproduce

1. Create new module with Setup InstallData.php

2. Install new category attribute following Magento's current category attribute array.
   magento-bug2.txt

3. Add view/adminhtml/ui_component/category_form.xml for above attribute
   magento-bug.txt

4. I am also getting this for a custom text and image attribute.

5. php bin/magento setup:upgrade

6. Set different values per scope level using store switcher

Expected result

1. Should see [Store View] label under attribute label.
2. Should be able to see different values per scope level (global, website, store)

Actual result

1. Can't see [Store View] label under attribute label.
2. Can't see different values per scope level (global, website, store)
3. Can see different values in database

Is there any movement on this or is there at least a workaround?

We need a solution for this too please.

Any update on this yet? I am facing the same issue after updating from 2.2.0 to 2.2.3

[stevekarwacki]

Can confirm this also exists in 2.2.3 enterprise.
@magento-engcom-team should I be reporting this to core enterprise support?

[pixiemediaweb]

any further feedback on this, or a temporary work around? it's a big issue for a project we're working on

Hello,

I have got below solution and it worked for me. Please add below code into your module's di.xml

<preference for="Magento\Catalog\Model\Category\DataProvider" type="Mynamespace\Mymodule\Model\Category\DataProvider" />

Here, we need to override DataProvider.php file to add 'Use Default Value' checkbox for custom attributes. There is a function named 'getFieldsMap', we need to do changes in that function. So our
DataProvider class will be as below,

namespace Mynamespace\Mymodule\Model\Category;

use Magento\Catalog\Model\Category\DataProvider as CategoryDataProvider;

class DataProvider extends  CategoryDataProvider
{

    protected function getFieldsMap()
    {
        $parentFieldMap = parent::getFieldsMap();
        array_push($parentFieldMap['display_settings'],'my_cat_desc');
        return $parentFieldMap;
    }
}

Here, 'my_cat_desc' = name of custom attribute and
'display_settings' = group of attribute, which we defined while creating attribute (or the section in admin panel form, where attribute is displayed).

After this, run upgrade command and clean cache, you will be able to set store specific values for custom attributes.

Hope this helps!
