Hi there,

When a user goes to a product's add attribute form they don't see a link to add a new attribute to the site. This would be a good thing to improve usability.

I'll do the patch unless someone else posts they are working on it.

I think Sammy meant for the link to point to admin/store/attributes/add, not the form to add an attribute to the product. That link is already present in the help text. This patch adds the link to that form instead because it becomes obvious then that the admin needs to create more attributes before they can be attached to products.

Committed so as not to block the release, though amendments to the patch will probably still be accepted.

Also,

The link that goes to node/%/edit/attributes/add only displays if there are not already any attributes.

Once you have an attribute on the node/%/edit/attributes screen you have to know the add url
to be able to find it.

For me, "the link that goes to node/%/edit/attributes/add" DOES display on the page at node/%/edit/attributes if I already have attributes on the product.

That's odd then, I'll have to look into why mine isn't working.

It did seem like something other people would have noticed if it was an issue.

What version are you running?

No response, so I'm going to assume this isn't an issue anymore.

I can confirm that this is still an issue in 2.4. I've attached screenshots showing what node/*/edit/attributes looks like with zero attributes and with one attribute added to the same product.

Nope, not a bug - that's a failure of your theme. It's not printing $help on the page. Try it with Garland and you'll see.
