I want to hide the payment logos for 1 product category. I've taken a look and they're in a block in the local.xml, but as far as I know XML doesn't like if statements.
Is there any way of doing it on PHP?
You can use the Custom Layout Update field in the Custom Design tab when editing a category if you want to add custom XML.
If you want to keep this in your local.xml, the category controller loads a handle called CATEGORY_ followed by the category ID. So you could basically do the following:
<CATEGORY_IDHERE>
<reference name="left">
...remove my icon...
</reference>
</CATEGORY_IDHERE>

Yes that would be the one. If you edit a category, you will see the title is "CATEGORY_NAME (ID: CATEGORY_ID)" – Mayers Jun 3 '15 at 13:32

The quickest and easiet way in PHP is to check the product category, Say that the category name is 'cat1' so, your block will look like this:
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($productId);
$cats = $product->getCategoryIds();
foreach ($cats as $category_id) :
$_cat = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load($category_id) ;
if ($cat->getName()==="cat1"):
// Set div style=display:none to hide it
div class="payment-logos" style="display:none !important;"
endif; // End if
endforeach; // End foreach
Have fun !!

Loading objects unnecessarily will slow down a store in no time. To avoid. – Mayers Jun 3 '15 at 14:01
