Smarty {assign} within foreach loop not works

[Dev Franco]

Hi,

 

I am trying to group the products in cart summary page by suppliers. Within the {foreach $products as $product}{} loop, I am trying to assign a product value to a smarty variable. But when I am printing the value inside the loop, it is showing the default value which I have set before the loop. Please see the example below:

 

{assign var='sellerid' value=55}

{foreach $products as $product}

   {$sellerid|@print_r}

   {assign var='sellerid' value= $product.sellerid}

{/foreach }

 

It prints 55 1 55 1 55 1 55 1 55 1

 

I don't know from where this 1 comes. But the 55 is not changing. What is wrong here. Please help me.

I would try something like this:

 

{$sellerid = 55}

{foreach $products as $product}

    {$sellerid = $product['id_supplier']}

   {$sellerid}

{/foreach }

 

If you want to assign other value than id_supplier use {$product|@print_r} and look for needed value.

 

And I guess that you should do something like this in controllers and module php files.

In tpl files you're only displaying content.

HI Szkrin,

 

Thanks for the response. I have tried as you suggested.

 

{$sellerid = 55}

{foreach $products as $product}

    {$sellerid = $product['id_supplier']}

   {$sellerid}

{/foreach }

But still the result is same.

Unfortuantely, I have to do it in the tpl file. I think it should be possible to do something like this in template files also. Do you have nay suggestion?

Are you sure that you have assigned different suppliers to products? Also you can check which is set as default (only default is showing here)

Hi Szkrin,

 

I have checked with different supplier products. No change.

What happening is,

{$var = 0}

{foreach $products as $product}

       {$var}  // prints 0 always

       {$var = 1}  // prints 1

{/foreach}

 

On each iteration, the value of $var is assigned as 0(default value set outside the loop). This is really weird. . Do you have any idea?

I added 3 products to cart, pasted your code into shopping-cart.tpl and it prints 0 1 1  so your code is working

Sadly I have no other idea why you're reciving 0 on each iteration. You can try to force compile and clear cache but I don't think that it will help.

Maybe somebody else will find solution for you.

This does not seem like a good way to assign Smarty variable 

{$sellerid = 55}

 

 

 

have you tried this way

 

{assign var=sellerid value=55}
