For update all categories with attribute is_anchor to 1:

<?php

require_once 'app/Mage.php';
umask(0);
Mage::app()->setCurrentStore(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID);

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('max_execution_time', 600);

$categories = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->getCollection();

foreach ($categories as $cat){

   $_cat = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load($cat->getId());

   if ($_cat->getData('is_anchor') == 0){
      $_cat->setData('is_anchor',1);
      $_cat->save();
   }

   echo $_cat->getName().' '.$_cat->getData('is_anchor').'<br/>';
}

  1. Click on category->display setting-> Is anchor set to "Yes".
  2. Open attriboue and set layered navigation -> yes.
  3. If still not working, reindex from system->index management

Layered navigation must be enabled in attribute options and category "Is anchor" option must be set to "Yes". And it works just fine.

Think Ive sussed it out IsAnchor=Yes needs to be turned on directly for the category with products in...

Is there a bulk upload that can be used to import / create these attributes?

When in doubt, clear the cache and rebuild the indexes.

See if layered navigation is enabled and also there is at least 1 product that have this attribute, because magento hides all values that do not have products
