what do the numbers in the Wordpress attribute_data field mean?

I have a CSV based export from a WooCommerce site. The attributes (both regular and global) all have an attribute_data field next to the data. For example, here is one:

attribute:pa_weight attribute_data:pa_weight attribute_default:pa_weight
0.44 11|1|0

Some of these attribute_data values are: 1|1|0 , 5|1|0, 3|1|0, etc

It seems the last number is always zero and the middle is always 1. The first numbers varies.

Any ideas what these different numbers are for?

I don't have an export format like that, but by looking at the default Products > Export format, there are three consecutive columns: Attribute value(s), Attribute visible, Attribute global.

Therefore:

  • First number: attribute value e.g. "red"
  • Second number: attribute is "visible" i.e. from the product edit settings should be the "Visible on the product page" checkbox Yes/No
  • Third number: attribute is "global" i.e. can be found under /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=product&page=product_attributes as opposed to being added by hand in the product edit page
