Acces To Product Description In Hookproducttab

[patrcolin]

on Prestashop 1.5, I try to get product->description in hookProductTab PHP module.

- the module hookProductTab is called before ProductController function initContent(), so it seems impossible to get module description

- what is the best way to get product->description

even in ProductController the following code does not work

 

 

$tplproducts = $smarty->tpl_vars['product']->value;

 

$m1 = $tplproducts->description_short;

 

Is there a solution to get product->description in hookProductTab PHP module ?

I have finaly solved my problem by reading the information (product->description) in the database in the table

product_lang

 

 

// Get descripyion from product_lang table.

$sql = 'SELECT description FROM '._DB_PREFIX_.'product_lang WHERE id_product = '.$maproductid.'

AND `id_shop` = '.(int)Context::getContext()->shop->id.'

AND `id_lang` = '.(int)Context::getContext()->language->id.'';

// echo "SQL =".$sql;

$localdesc = Db::getInstance()->getValue($sql);

 

This works fine.
