Get Customer Group Id In Smarty

[Bartjuh1994]

Hi all,

 

How can i get the customer group id in smarty (Product list page and product detail page)? Now i have the customer ID but i dont wanna know how to change it to the group id.

 

The customer code i have:

{if $cookie->id_customer == 3}

 

Thanks in advance

I've never found a global variable for customer group. It's not so simple because the customer group can be more than one number. Look around the forums for customer group. Unless things have changed, you have to extend some of the classes to pass the data to Smarty.

[prestashopninja]

Hello,

 

I have coded a simple module to do that. Please find it attached.

It will push the groups the actual customer belongs to, into an array and will pass it to smarty. If the user isn't logged in, it will return "FALSE"

 

So, after the module is installed, you can find the customer groups array within your template as in the example below, which will display the ID and the name of the first group :

{if is_array($customerGroups) }{$customerGroups[0]['id_group']} - {$customerGroups[0]['name']}{/if}

 

I hope it helps.

Hello,

 

This is exactly what I was looking. The module shows the customer group.

But if the customer is part of 2 groups, how can I show the default group or both groups ?

 

For example, if 1 client is part of group "Customer" and "Discount 5%" (which is the default group):

 

a. how can I show only group "Discount 5%" ?

b. how can I show or both groups ?

 

Thanks for your help !

Customer groups there, is already an array containing all the groups the customer belongs to.

 

If you update the method hookHeader as follows for example,

       public function hookHeader()
       {
               global $smarty;
               $context = Context::getContext();
               $id_lang = $context->cart->id_lang;
               $customer = $context->customer;
               $id_customer = $customer->id;
               $groups = Db::getInstance()->executeS("SELECT " ._DB_PREFIX_. "customer_group.id_group , " ._DB_PREFIX_. "group_lang.name
FROM " ._DB_PREFIX_. "customer_group
                               LEFT JOIN " ._DB_PREFIX_. "group_lang ON " ._DB_PREFIX_. "group_lang.id_group = " ._DB_PREFIX_. "customer_group.id_group
                               WHERE " ._DB_PREFIX_. "customer_group.id_customer = '$id_customer' AND " ._DB_PREFIX_. "group_lang.id_lang = '$id_lang'");
               if(!isset($groups[0])) $groups = FALSE;
               $smarty->assign('customerGroups', $groups);
$defaultGroupId = Configuration::get('PS_CUSTOMER_GROUP');
$defaultGroup = new Group($defaultGroupId);
$smarty->assign('customerDefaultGroup' , $defaultGroup);
       }

... in the template, it will give you access to the whole object for the default group. Then, in the template you can access it as:

{$customerDefaultGroup->name[1]}

and it will print the default group's name, in language id #1, probably the default language.

You can also pass anything else to Smarty extending the module this way.

[longip]

Thanks for your help. I do not know php, I just pasted the new code.

But, the new code always shows group "Customer". Thanks anyway.

[prestashopninja]

Hello,

 

Without any php knowledge, that's already impressive that you could do it that far.

If my code above always returns "customer", then your default group isn't "Discount 5%", but it is still the default, "customer".

This topic about changing the default customer group is a solved case and it might help: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/162675-solved-how-to-set-customer-group-default/

[longip]

Sorry for may late reply. Just got back from a short holiday.

 

The first thing I have check was id "Discount 5%" is default group and it is. The code always returns "Customer".

[jamess]

Hi prestashopninja,

 

Really appreciate this module and your code. This helps with an issue whereby I want to display selective content to various groups.

 

In my case, I really wanted to identify one group. So I added some PHP to the hookHeader function, after the query.

/* assigns smarty variable for corporate accounts */

foreach ($groups as $group) {

if ($group['id_group'] == 26) {

$smarty->assign('tw_corporate', 1);

}

}

 

Now in the templates, I can simply add code like this for the content.

{if $tw_corporate eq 1}

...

{/if}

 

I thought that might be useful to someone else in the same situation.

Hi prestashopninja,

 

1- Could you let me know whether your module is compatible with Prestashop 1.4.7.0 ?

 

2- I would like to do the following :

- On the front office, I would like that the voucher box only displays for clients belonging to this specific client group  (group 2)

Would you have any idea how to achieve it ?

 

Thank you in advance for any help in this matter.

My thanks to Prestashopninja the code you supplied set me in the right direction but I also found it would only return "Customer".

 

I found replacing the line $defaultGroupId = Configuration::get('PS_CUSTOMER_GROUP');

 

With $defaultGroupId = Customer::getDefaultGroupId((int)$id_customer);

 

This solved it for me, I hope this helps.

[CUBE-IN]

If you want to have default customer group value (customerDefaultGroup) in your smarty template, it's enough to add this code to hookHeader function of any module you use:

 

global $smarty;

$smarty->assign('customerDefaultGroup' , Customer::getDefaultGroupId(Context::getContext()->customer->id));

[me-and-prestashop]

This is not beautifull, but it works for me in PS 1.6.

 

Let's say you have the 3 customer groups pluss one custom group. You would like to test if the user is logged in and is a member of the custom group (id 4) (the user can also be a member of other groups).

 

First install prestashopninja's module (thank you prestashopninja). In the template try this:

{if is_array($customerGroups) }
  {if $customerGroups[0]['id_group'] eq '4' || $customerGroups[1]['id_group'] eq '4' || $customerGroups[2]['id_group'] eq '4'  || $customerGroups[3]['id_group'] eq '4'}
    Content for group 4 goes here
  {else}
    You are not in group 4
  {/if}
{else}
  You are not in any customer groups (or not logged in)
{/if}

[prestashopninja]

The module was only there to give an idea. I don't advise to use it in any production environment as it's raw and I hope it can describe the general logic to pass data to Smarty using a custom module. 

[me-and-prestashop]

Yes. I'am playing around on a dev installation for now. Was only showing that the zeros in 

{$customerGroups[0]['id_group']} - {$customerGroups[0]['name']}

apparently is referring to the first group ticked off for each user (smallest group id number ticked off). One can also look at the second, third, forth chosen group to see if it's a match.

 

By the way. Is there anything particular unsafe with this raw module? I am looking for a solution to allow only one customer group to see the supplier page and -lists (and site map item). I would not know how to do this in a safer way. 

Edited November 18, 2014 by me-and-prestashop (see edit history)

[prestashopninja]

From the view of safety, it should be pretty safe, yet it's a just simple example; not meant to use in any production environment.

The XML on the zip file needs some adjustment.  It's a copy of the Ultimate XML Importer.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
        <module>
            <name>customergroup</name>
            <displayName><![CDATA[Customer Group]]></displayName>

            <need_instance>1</need_instance>
	<limited_countries></limited_countries>
        </module>

Is there a way to get all the values in the array?

 

How about the Default Group?

 

This module is the only method I have found to assign the Customer Group to a smarty variable.  Old overrides no longer work in 1.6.

 

Thanks for the good work.

Hello is possible to have the module to take groups of clients?
I need to see the id and group names on products.tpl and list_products.tpl.

Thank you and sorry for my english!

Tks Prestaninja for your work ... together with Jamess contribution on post #9 .... you both saved my day!
perfectly working on PS 1.6.0.14

Hi, how to get help in the card vendor item number.
This article is just a group of customers with ID4 will have to see.
Access all others should be closed.
I have this code that I used in produkt.tpl:

<p id="supplier_reference" {if !$product->supplier_reference}style="display: none;"{/if}>
<label for="manufacturer_name">{l s='ART :'} </label>
<span class="editable">{$product->supplier_reference|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</span><br>

Sorry for my English

You made my day.

[sueshi]

The same solution works perfectly for me on product_list page, but not in the product_list presented in search.tpl. In search results the whole if-else statement is completely ignored. Please, can anyone explain why?

[prestowicz]

gosh, so much overcomplicated.... why not:

{Group::getCurrent()->id}

will make the customer (user) default (most specific one) group available in template (tested on PS 1.6.1.1 from product.tpl)

Thx for providing your module. I have a question about it. I have installed the module, and when I put the snippet into a template file, I get as expected this:

 

4 - Reseller

 

but now I want to use this to hide content for selected usergroups. For example, the user group is "4" I want to display something, else nothing.

 

I already tested 

 

{if $customerDefaultGroup == 4}

 

something

 

{/if}

 

but that does not work. Can you tell me how I could have that worked? ( I am on 1.6.1.7)

 

Thanks in advance

Try :

{/if}

the best part, no module needed, inbuild presta functionality

You are right!

 

I thought the code was working in dependece of prestashopninjas module. But now I have tested and it works just as it is, that simple. Great solution.

 

thx for sharing.

Hi

This is brilliant!! Is there any way of getting it to display on the PDF Invoice?? It's good to know when ringing orders through a till point.

Thanks from Italy too.

Por si alguien lo sigue buscando, es:

{$customerDefaultGroup->id}

Un saludo.

Will I be able to get this to work on invoice.tpl for the PDF invoice?

[rocky]

In the PDF invoice TPL file, you'll need to use:

{Customer::getDefaultGroupId($order->id_customer)}

Thanks! this does work.

 

I would like to be more specific if possible. For instance, the customer group 4 is a discount card holder group, so I'd like to display "Discount Card Holder" on the invoice page, for each order placed by someone in group 4. Is this possible?

Hello,

where i find this module ?

I wants catch client group id in smarty.

Prestashop 1.6.1.17.

Edited October 20, 2017 by [email protected] (see edit history)

[rocky]

There is no module I'm aware of to do this. You must manually edit a Smarty template and add code like {if Group::getCurrent()->id == 1}Do stuff for group 1{/if}

[templaries]

You can use this on smarty template:

 

{Customer::getDefaultGroupId(Context::getContext()->customer->id)}

Hi!

I'm trying to get customer reduction value from group he belongs to. At the moment clients belongs to default group (visitors) also some of the clients are attached to the second group 10% reduction.

I would like to show them reduction value when they're logged in. 

{Group::getCurrent()-> id}
{Customer::getDefaultGroupId(Context::getContext()->customer->id)}

this code give me only id my default group = 1 (for this group reduction is 0) but customer also is in group id = 3 with reduction = 10%.

How to get this information? Do I need get group array somehow ? Any help would be great thanks

[Ilya Butenko]

{Context::getContext()->customer->getGroups()} - it will return array with customer groups

other variants with {$customer} and {Customer::getGroupsStatic($customer.id)} NOT worked for me

I used prestashop 1.7.6.1

[toneko]

The hookHeader code works flawless in Presta 1.7.5.1.

Thank you @prestashopninja!!
