I have tried numerous ways I was sure which worked befire but none of them seem to be yielding any results?! So, question is - how do I output a value from a single choice, selection attribute?! Many thanks in advance.... Tony

The theory is when we know everything and nothing works. The practice is when everything works and nobody knows why. If the practice and theory are met, nothing works and we do not know why.

Hi tony,

if i well understand what you have says. you want to have the selected choise from the selection datatype.

try this code:

{$node.data_map.name_of__your_attribute.content.0}

use $node if you are in an override template.

I've been also using this, and it works also :

$node.data_map.name_of_your_attribute.data_text
