Access to smarty variable $current_category
 

Hello ...

Within version 4.1.x I was able to access the $current_category smarty variable when I was viewing the products detail page (product.php)

I can no longer do this with 4.4.x. Can anyone help on which .php files I have to make changes to in order for me to access to this smarty variable?

Many Thanks & Regards

Try

$current_category = func_get_category_data($cat);
$smarty->assign("current_category, $current_category);

in product.php

You may need to load "categories" and define $cat if not available ($cat will be the product category)
