these should help I have put text in between the “” which is where you specify the category,
[product_category category=”enter slug of category you want to show” per_page=”12″ columns=”4″ orderby=”date” order=”desc”]
there is also a shortcode button when you edit pages for the woocommerce, it is purple coloured button along top bar in the visual edit for the page
hope this helps you
I wanted just the parent categories as the default on the shop page and figured this out after some hunt and peck/trial and error in the WooCommerce Settings->Catalog
Check the first 3 boxes under Show subcategories:
Show on category pages
Show on the shop page
hide products
That second one is completely non-intuitive and sounds like a bug, but it did what I wanted.
Thank god someone has had similar troubles. Do any of you know how to show certain categories on the home page,
I tried this http://docs.woothemes.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/
but it only shows products in the categories rather than the category itself.
Is there a shortcode for this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
[product_category category=”category slug”]
Is this work?
