[SOLVED] if product is in category A or in category B or in category C, then do this

[ajnglagla]

I am trying to show a text on product page when the current displayed product belongs to specific categories. If product is in category A, or in category B, or in category C... Then echo "text".

 

I am using 1.5.3

 

How can i check if product is in category A or in category B or in category C, then do this?

I found a solution here http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/139200-display-categories-to-which-product-belongs-in-product-detail-page/

you can achieve this without core change

{assign var='associated' value=0}                
  {foreach Product::getProductCategories($smarty.get.id_product) as $category}
    {if in_array($category, 5)}
      {assign var='associated' value=1}
    {/if}
  {/foreach}
{if $associated==1}
  {l s='product associated'}
{/if}

I did like that;  but i have a problem. How can i show a text if one product is not belong any of these categories?

I have added "else" but its pringting 3 times

 

{foreach from=$product->moi_categories_names item=moi_category_name}
       {if $moi_category_name=="Category A"}
       This product belong to Category A and
      {elseif $moi_category_name=="Category B"}
      This product belong to Category B and
       {elseif $moi_category_name=="Category C"}
      This product belong to Category C and
       {/if}
{/foreach}

code you use doesnt allow to do that.

you have to change it. at least to:

 

add 

{assign var='associated' value=1} 

to each if condition

then after foreach loop add:

{if $associated==1}
  {l s='product associated'}
{else}
  {l s='product not associated'}
{/if}
