Conditional Statement - Parent and Child Category Display Additional Information

[crlannen]

I have a request to echo out a phone number for a primary category that will also display on each of the child categories, e.g., Bakery (parent) with child categories such as Cakes, Pies, etc. within the top navigation.

It's not my design and the top navigation is hard coded as the website is not just ZC.

Thanks!

And we have no clue what or where the hard code is...
Refer to the person who hard codded it

Quite frankly why did you even bothered to respond to my question. It doesn't make any difference whether or not it is currently hard coded or not.

ZC is never, ever my recommendation for a shopping cart. Free is NOT EVER the best solution.

So instead of:

<li><a href="/bakery/">Bakery</a></li>


<li>
<?php if it's category Bakery or anyone of the child/subcategories or is a product page within the parent/child category

echo out <a href="/bakery/">Bakery xxx-xxx-xxxx Ext. 1</a>endif; ?></li>



I tried googling for even a hint of the appropriate ZC syntax with no luck.

<li>
<?php if it's category Bakery or anyone of the child/subcategories or is a product page within the parent/child category

echo out <a href="/bakery/">Bakery xxx-xxx-xxxx Ext. 1</a></li>

else (if it's not one of the above)

<li><a href="/bakery/">Bakery</a></li>

endif; ?>

<li><a href="/bakery/">Bakery<?php if((int)$_GET['cPath'] == 23) echo ' xxx-xxx-xxxx Ext. 1' ?></a></li>

(int)$_GET['cPath'] strips the category path down to its first numerical portion, which is the top category id. Replace 23 with the appropriate category id.

You find out the appropriate syntax for a given platform by studying its structure or by asking those who are familiar with it. It helps if you don't insult those who respond.
We couldn't tell you how to get the number into your output without a clue as to what the output is, as you gave with your subsequent posts.

Thank you!! It worked like a charm.
