Hi Lene,

If you're checking for VirtueMart categories, there's a special thing just for them. The category_id you're using above only applies to article categories, not VM categories. (you were on the right track though!)

So try this:

$vm = JomGenius("virtuemart");
if ( $vm->check("ancestor_category_ids = 5")) return true;


What this does is checks all the way up the list of parent and grandparent categories (i.e. "ancestors") for the current VM product. If it finds category "5" in the list of ancestors, it returns true.

You can put in a comma-separated list of category ids to check, and it will return true if any one of them is found.

I *think* this is what you're looking for. Please write back if you need more help.

Best regards,
Stephen
