Get current store id in opencart

Question

i try to show different header image in frontend based on store id mean every store has different header image .

the problem is how to echo current store_id in frontend (in header)

so i can proceed with my code something like below :

<?php
if($store_id == '1') {  // 1 is default store
    //echo image here   
}
else {  //if not default show different image
    //echo image here   
}
?>

Opencart version : 1.4.9.6

Solution

The current store_id of Your store is in $this->config->get('config_store_id').

That means if You need it in the template, edit header controller (catalog/controller/common/header.php) - some in the index() function add this code (id it is not present already):

$this->data['store_id'] = $this->config->get('config_store_id');

Then in Your header.tpl of Your template (catalog/view/theme/<YOUR_THEME>/template/common/header.tpl) use it this way:

<?php if ($tore_id == 0) { ?>
<div>Main store</div>
<?php } else { ?>
<div>Subdomain store</div>
<?php } ?>

or this way:

<div class="container-<?php echo $store_id; ?>"> ... </div>

It is upon You.

EDIT: Also consider moving on with newer OpenCart (latest is 1.5.4.1 as of 15^th December, 2012) - it is worth the redesign and the functions and gadgets it has.
