Hi there,
I tried that, but got an error. However it did point me in the right direction. So thank-you!
For those that are interested this is what I did which is based on the getStoreCategories function.
left.phtml - 6 is the id of the parent category
<ul>
<?php foreach ($this->getSubCategories(6) as $_category): ?>
<?php echo $this->drawItem($_category) ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>
/Mage/Catalog/Model/Category.php
public function getSubCategories($parentId)
{
$helper = Mage::helper('catalog/category');
return $helper->getSubCategories($parentId);
}
/Mage/Catalog/Helper/Category.php
public function getSubCategories($parentId, $sorted=false, $asCollection=false, $toLoad=true)
{
$category = Mage::getModel('catalog/category');
/* @var $category Mage_Catalog_Model_Category */
if (!$category->checkId($parentId)) {
if ($asCollection) {
return new Varien_Data_Collection();
}
return array();
}
$tree = $category->getTreeModel();
/* @var $tree Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Mysql4_Category_Tree */
$nodes = $tree->loadNode($parentId)
->loadChildren()
->getChildren();
$tree->addCollectionData(null, $sorted, $parentId, $toLoad, true);
if ($asCollection) {
return $tree->getCollection();
} else {
return $nodes;
}
}
Hopefully this helps someone?
