Display category discount date

[Misa Amane]

Hello all,

 

I set a specific price for a category of product.

How can i display this date in the categories pages ( in file product-list.tpl) ? I tried to get the date from 1 product with {$product->specificPrice['to']} but it didn't work.

smarty syntax: $product->specificPrice.to

I tried it too but it didn't work, in the file product-list.tpt the object product hasn't specificPrice

[erouvier29]

Sorry, that was for product.tpl.

In product-list.tpl, use $product.specific_prices.to, e.g.

<span>{$product.specific_prices.to|date_format:"%d/%m/%Y"}</span>

It works, thank you.

Is there any way to convert this date in duration. For example : 4 days left rather that 12/06/2016

 

edit : It's okey, i succeed with JQuery

In that case, I would rather compute the number of days left within the CategoryController.

E.g. from line 240 in PS 1.6.1.5:

        // ADD THIS...
        $now = time();
        
        foreach ($this->cat_products as &$product) {
            if (isset($product['id_product_attribute']) && $product['id_product_attribute'] && isset($product['product_attribute_minimal_quantity'])) {
                $product['minimal_quantity'] = $product['product_attribute_minimal_quantity'];
            }
            // ... AND THAT
            if (isset($product['specific_prices'])) {
                $product['specific_prices']['days_left'] = ceil((strtotime($product['specific_prices']['to']) - $now)/86400);
            }
        }

Then use {$product.specific_prices.days_left} in product-list.tpl
