{if $category->id == "25" } for 1.7 doesn't work

[clacour_hc]

Hello,
 
On prestashop 1.6, i used this code to show an image or another thing only in a specific category.

{if $category->id == "25" }

But, with Prestashop 1.7, i don't found the code to use.

 

Anyone to help me.. I know, i'm a noob! :-)

(and sorry for my english)

 

Thanks a lot !

Bro, you're code is wrong. I'm looking for the right one.

 

EDIT

{if $category->id == 3}  

  Some action 

{/if}

Right code (see edit history)

Guys both can be right or wrong.

If we talk about children categories in a category controller, category.id is proper.

If we talk about the category itself, category->id is proper.

Hi guys,

I'll stick to it.

For example, how can I integrate the following condition in version 1.7.8 on a Productcategorie-Page:

If category ID =2 then output <p>Hello</p>

alternatively with several categories

If category ID =2,3,4,5 then output <p>Hello</p>

I've tried all of the above examples. 🤔

Can you share screenshot or even better a link in order to assist you further?

[chris821]

Sure, i am trying, to set the content width on specific categories to 12 columns.

For example, in Category 6 or Category 6 and 9

In the Screenshot i said "all Category Pages", that is not what i want ...

You really should study more the extension system between the template parts.

For example you have

catalog/listing/category.tpl

which extends

catalog/listing/product-list.tpl

You have to add a block like this

{block name='right_column'}{/block}

But with a UNIQUE name e.g.

{block name='greek_mod'}{/block}

Then you call it in category.tpl and make the respective alteration.

NOT tested, but it should work. Always backup 😎

OK, I'll take a closer look again, thanks.

But how do I get a query as described above, .. if category ID == xx ... (or more catgoreises) is that even possible in prestashop 1.7?

{if $category.id|in_array:['1', '5', '9', '18' .....]}
    Do your thing
{else}
	Do something else
{/if}

[chris821]

Yes sir .. it works.

That´s exactly what i was looking for, thank you!!! 😃
