Magento2: How to get list of category's dropdown attributes?

Let's say that `$category` is the instance of the current category;


    $collection = $category->getProductCollection()->addAttributeToSelect(['manufacturer', 'color']);

    $manufacturers = [];

    $colors = [];

    foreach ($collection as $product) {

        $manufacturer = $product->getData('manufacturer');

        if ($manufacturer && !isset($manufacturers[$manufacturer])) {

             $manufacturers[$manufacturer] = $product->getAttributeText('manufacturer');

        }

        $color = $product->getData('color');

        if ($color && !isset($colors[$color])) {

             $colors[$color] = $product->getAttributeText('color');

        }

    }


after this, `$manufacutrers` and `$colors` should contain all the values you need. The key is the id, and the value is the option label.  

But this may cause performance issues if you have a large product collection.

How do I find my Magento Theme name?

Look at the HTML source in your browser ("View Source") and search for skin/frontend, which is followed by PACKAGE/THEME, where PACKAGE is usually the name of the theme and THEME is usually default or contains site-specific changes.

Which version of Magento is best?

 Magneto 2 runs approximately 20% faster than Magento 1, which can lead to improved SEO and increased sales. All of the content from a static page can be cached, thus increasing site performance and drastically reducing the server load. This makes the Magento 2 platform more scalable for large eCommerce stores.

How to add Buy Now At Product Page in Magento - 1 version ?

If you want both Add to Cart and Buy now, add the buy now button to addtoCart.phtml

Go to
/app/design/frontend/[package name]/[themename]/template/ajaxcart/catalog/product/view/addtoCart.phtml

<button type="button" 
        title="<?php echo $buttonTitle ?>"
        class="button btn-cart" 
        onclick="productBuyNowForm.submit(this)">
    <span><span>Buynow</span></span>
</button>

On that buttons onlick event, a custom VarienForm is used, productBuyNowForm.submit(this), which will submit this form and redirect to checkout onepage.

To define this custom form, add the following JavaScript code at view.phtml

Go to
/app/design/frontend/[package name]/[theme name]/template/catalog/product/view.phtml

<script>
var productBuyNowForm = new VarienForm('product_addtocart_form');
productBuyNowForm.submit = function (button, url) {
    if (this.validator.validate()) {
        var form = this.form;
        var oldUrl = form.action;
        alert(form.action);
        if (url) {
            form.action = url;
        }

        /* add return Url */
        var inputreturn= document.createElement("input");
        inputreturn.type = "hidden";
        inputreturn.name = "return_url";
        inputreturn.value = "<?php echo Mage::getUrl('checkout/onepage')?>";
        document.getElementById('product_addtocart_form').appendChild(inputreturn);
        /* add return Url */
        // Append a line break 
        var e = null;
        try {
            this.form.submit();
        } catch (e) {
        }
        this.form.action = oldUrl;
        if (e) {
            throw e;
        }

        if (button && button != 'undefined') {
            button.disabled = true;
        }
    }
}.bind(productBuyNowForm);

</script>
