{$smarty.get.id_category} - you can use this variable

you can also use {$id_category}

Hi Vekia ,

 

 

 

$smarty.get.id_category = 4 not working

 

 

{if ($smarty.get.id_category = 4)}

     {include file="./product-list.tpl" products=$products}

{/if}

 

 

 

Thanks

Resolved. Thanks.

{if ($smarty.get.id_category = 4)}
     {include file="./product-list.tpl" products=$products}
{/if}

wrong code

 

you have to use:

{if $smarty.get.id_category==4}

{if ($smarty.get.id_category = 4)}
     {include file="./product-list.tpl" products=$products}
{/if}

Can I ask why you wouldn't just use {$category->id}. That would seem the most sensible approach to me, unless I'm missing something....

Well the "best answer" doesn't mention it so not sure which post you mean?

 

{$smarty.get.id_category} - you can use this variable

you can also use {$id_category}
