Use the context object : http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Using+the+Context+Object

 

$this->context->language->id;

$this->context->language->id;

I'm trying this in a TPL file but doesn't works:

 

$id_idioma = $this->context->language->id;

 

{if $id_idioma==3}

//code

{/if}

 

Im almost sure that is my problem but I don't know how to do it.

 

Thanks for helping me.

In template you have to use {} for code/variables.

 

Here are few other examples:

 

{$languages} The various available languages

{$lang_iso} ISO code for the current language

{$this->context->language->id} current language id

For PS 1.7.5.1 its very simple. You can use following to detect currently selected language on product details page or any tpl.

{$language.id}

Use this to get current language

{$language.iso_code}

with ISO code (like en, fr, de, ...)
