Hi there,
Glad to assist,
Regarding the “storecat” slug – we don’t really support modifying that slug as it’s built into the plugin’s core functionality. Could you clarify a bit about why you’d like to change it or what you’re trying to achieve? There might be an alternative approach we could suggest.
For the Store Categories page with the Neve theme – I see you’re working with the block editor syntax. The documentation example uses the classic PHP template approach, which doesn’t directly apply to block themes like Neve.
For block themes, you’d need to modify the archive template differently. Instead of creating a taxonomy-storecat.php file, you could try:
(1) Create a custom block pattern or template part in your theme that includes a shortcode block with:
[marketking_vendors_list category=’.get_queried_object()->name.’]
(2) Or, you could add a filter to modify the query loop block output for the storecat taxonomy pages through functions.php
I’m afraid I don’t really have a specific example or documentation on it though – we have limited knowledge of theme development and Neve in particular – for specific development details it is probably best to get in touch with the theme developers as they would have a better understanding,
Hi,
I would like to change “storecat” because, firstly, my site is in French, so I would have preferred “/boutiquecat/”. Or rather, “/localisation/” (localization) because my categories are used to organize my vendors by region and department.
Unless there’s another way to display the list of vendors by department?
For the vendor list on a Category page, I’ll try what you suggested.
But is it normal that by default, vendors aren’t displayed on a Category Page like https://www.touten1.club/storecat/occitanie/ ?
Is your Pro extension incompatible with newer themes that use block syntax?

Hi again,
Thank you for the clarifications,
-> It is normal that by default vendors do not show on pages such as site.com/storecat/example . I want to clarify that this is not a standard feature of our plugin or the Store Categories module.
In the documentation, we describe how it can be achieved with custom code, but this is only intended as a starting point for developers.
-> To implement it with a different name such as ’boutiquecat’, I think a solution could be to create a custom taxonomy, but I understand that might be complex.
Since I understand you are also using our MarketKing Pro (premium) extension, the rules of this forum allow me to direct you to our external support platform at https://webwizards.ticksy.com/
To solve this (implement with Neve theme + use a custom name such as ’boutiquecat’), I recommend you open a ticket with us at the above link and provide us with an admin login to the site or a staging clone site. We can then take a closer look at Neve’s architecture and we may also be able to add a PHP filter to enable changing the name of the taxonomy. I cannot promise we can achieve it, as much of it depends on how the theme works, but we would be happy to investigate it on the site to see what can be done,
Hi. Ok, I opened a ticket on your external support platform. Thanks
