[FIXED] How can i get catecory name and link inside the products list in Prestashop 1.7 using smarty code?

Issue

I am building a new theme and i am looking for a way to display the category name and the category link inside each product item in product lists. I am using the smarty code

{$product.category_name}

so i can get the category name of the product that belongs to that category but i really can't find a way (using smarty code) so i can get the url that links to that category. I already tried:

<a href="{$product.category_name}">{$product.category_name}</a>

but this code generate the url:

http://mysite/home-accessories

instead of:

  Quote

http://mysite/8-home-accessories

Does anyone knows how can i make it work using only smarty code ?

Solution

{$product.id}-$product.category_name}
