$category->id not working when smarty cache enabled

[mammoo]

I wanted to amend the categories block to only output the categories from within the category currently being viewed. I added

 

{if $child.id==$category->id_parent || $child.id==$category->id}

 

to the blockcategories.tpl file around the category output and this does what I want.

 

My problem is that if I enable Smary caching in the performance tab this stops working. Both $category->id_parent and $category->id are blank when caching is enabled.

 

Does anyone know why this is and how you can get around it?
