Hi all

I'm very new to PHP and i'm trying to add what i think is simple code to display a message in the product descriptions within a single category. I have tried the code below but it's not working

<?php

if ($category['category_id'] == "88" ) {
echo "Free Delivery";
}

?>

You can probably tell i have no idea your help would be much appreciated thanks

You need to load the category info into the template from the controller to be able to see if its the right one
Open

/catalog/controller/product/category.php

Find this line

$this->document->setTitle($category_info['name']);

before it put

$this->data['category_id'] = $category_id;

Then in your template use

if ($category_id == "88" ) {
echo "Free Delivery";
}

OK just for you to see where i need to put that is some custom code for page titles

			//===wommon 2011-7-25 add pagetitle start
			//$this->document->setTitle($category_info['name']);
			if($category_info['pagetitle']){
                $this->document->setTitle($category_info['pagetitle']);
            }else{
                $this->document->setTitle($category_info['name']);
            }
			//===wommon 2011-7-25 add pagetitle end

shall i still put it there?
