Category Tree Parent and Children Elements of Selected Element

[beginner1]

Hi everyone I have a question. I am making a module in which a button will be shown to a product of selected category by the user. My question is how can I get the parent and children elements of the selected item. For e.g in the category tree image that I have provided if the user select Top how will I know if this is for women or men? The same goes for shirts. Both men and women can have shirts.

The CategoryController has a method to return the current category object. This object has an id_parent property and an array of sub-categories. I don't remember exactly how it works, but you should have a look at the module ps_treeview. By looking at the code, you should find your way.

Okay thank you.
