I added a new attribute to my products(a boolean "yes/no" field). It is a variable to enable/disable the price from displaying on the product detail page, and grid view.

I managed to get it work on the product info page. But on product grid page I cant seem to access that variable. Specifically, the template i am working with is catalog/product/price.phtml. From what i can tell, the price is being displayed by the same group of if-statements on both the product detail page, and grid page. This has me confused because i cant find any code on that template to handle multiple products, just a bunch of nested if statements.

this is how im attempting to access this new variable using $_displayPrice. on line 36 of catalog/product/price.html

<?php $_product = $this->getProduct();  ?>

<?php $_id = $_product->getId() ?>
<?php $_displayPrice = $_product->getDisplayPrice() ? "Yes" : "No";

echo $_displayPrice;?>

What has me further confused is that when display $_product->getData(), my new variable isn't anywhere among that data.

thanks in advance
