Exactly, I would like it to go out before the product name.

 

I was able to print the id of the parent category (18) but not the associated name

What is your Prestashop version? I'll make the code for you

if you're using Prestashop 1.6.x simply put this code beside the product name in your theme/product.tpl file like this: http://prntscr.com/geqws9 

{if isset($product->category) && $product->category}<span style="color: #01AEEC">{ucfirst($product->category)}</span> - {/if}

Result: http://prntscr.com/geqwjw 

 

Good luck

Thank you very much for your support =)

Now I try the code from you written, my version of prestashop is 1.7.1

Unfortunately, the code does not work for version 1.7.1

To have a really simple, yet effective solution, i would use the breadcrumb title.

You can use this for any level of your category just change the number.

{$breadcrumb.links[2].title}

Old topic, but if someone need it: 

 

Here a solution to add - manufacturer logo (if available) + link to parent category (using the breadcrumbs trick)

 

 {block name='product_reference'}
    {if isset($product_manufacturer->id)}
      <div class="product-manufacturer">
        {if isset($manufacturer_image_url)}
          <a href="{$breadcrumb.links[2].url}">
            <img src="{$manufacturer_image_url}" class="img img-thumbnail manufacturer-logo" alt="{$product_manufacturer->name}" title="Bekijk alle {$product_manufacturer->name} {$breadcrumb.links[1].title}s">
          </a>
        {else}
          <label class="label">{l s='Brand' d='Shop.Theme.Catalog'}</label>
          <span>
            <a href="{$breadcrumb.links[2].url}">{$product_manufacturer->name}</a>
          </span>
        {/if}
      </div>
    {/if}
  {/block}

How can I see al this costants and variables? As

{$breadcrumb.links[2].title}

I just want to display the category, but I remember in 1.6 there was a {debug} function that pops up a new window with all the costants and variables displayed (or printed) in the page. How I do that in 1.7?

Best regards

Hi there.
I thought I had the same question but actually mine is a bit different.
Actually my products belong to several different categories and my problem is finally not to know the parent category...
I need to know from which catgeory page the user clicked to reach the product page!

I am using Prestashop 1.6.
Any idea?

thank you!

Hi

How can display a specific category product using the "id" ?

Is it possible?
