HookCategoryUpdate seem not be call when changing product to non defaut category

[Pierrox15]

Hello,

I m creating a module to manage category on the front office and I've got a problem to clear cache when the product association change.

When  I join a product to a  *non default* category  the  HookCategoryUpdate seem not be call.

Perhaps i don't understanding how to use it?

 

Below  the code i use to clear my specific cache:

I Don't know how I can get the new *non defaut* category association
 to clear it front office page cache

	public function hookActionProductUpdate($params){
		$id_product = $params['id_product'];
		if ( $categories = Product::getProductCategories(intval($id_product))){
			foreach ($categories as $id_category){
				$this->clearCategoriesCache(intval($id_category));
			}
		}
	}

	public function hookActionCategoryUpdate($params){
		if($id_category = $params['id_category']){
			$this->clearCategoriesCache(intval($id_category));
		}
	}

	public function hookActionProductAdd($params){
		$id_product = $params['id_product'];
		if ( $categories = Product::getProductCategories(intval($id_product))){
			foreach ($categories as $id_category){
				$this->clearCategoriesCache(intval($id_category));
			}
		}
	}

	public function clearCategoriesCache($id_category){
		return $this->_clearCache('productscategory.tpl','productscategory|'. $id_category);
	}

Thx for your help

hookActionXXXUpdate is called when object model properties are changed. So, when you save Product from your back office then hookActionProductUpdate is called. Unfortunately, at this point, only product properties has been saved to database. Category associations weren't saved yet, because they are not property of an object. Controlelr will save them a littile bit little bit later. That means your 

Product::getProductCategories(intval($id_product))

is probably retrieving old set of categories

Ok thx, So I get the POST values with `(array)Tools::getValue('categoryBox');` and seem to work.

So actionCategoryUpdate is never call when a product changing Category?
