find category id and parent cat id
 

I want to add/remove stuff on the product detail page based on the category id

so I have

{if ($current_category.categoryid != 23) } do this

But it's not working

I really need to do this for cat 23 and all it's children. Is there a way to say if "parent category is 23) do this ?

This way client can add more subcats w/o having to change code.

thanks

This works for the prod category

But I'd still like to do it for a cat and all the childres

{if $product.categoryid != 23 }

Does this thread help?

Re: find category id and parent cat id
 

I tried to add the code
{assign var=myCats value=","|explode:"22,23,25,35"}
{if in_array($catid, $myCats)}

but it completely breaks the template ?

Am I missing something ?

I'm guessing the error has to do with not liking "explode". This explains that situation. I add something like this to the end of postauth.php:
