I’m trying to create page with all categories from parent category, and for this I’m using this shortCode in my tamplate shop:
echo do_shortcode( '[product_categories]' );
I can show all categories of my shop, but i want to show all categories of parent category.
I’m reading in google an woocommerce documentation, but with this short-code, generate URL of this category, but i do click in category redirect to home page.
How do i can to do page of specifies category. For example, if i want enter in category music load template with this products…
I need create a function in functions.php ? or if i use shortcode I can?
my actual result it´s:
and URl for one category it´s, for example:
www.mydomain.com/categoria-producto/accessories/
But this return to home
I’m noob with WooCommerce. Any help is appreciated.
✔️Solution:
The [product_categories] shortcode you’re using can accept a number of arguments, one of which is parent:
Set to a specific category ID if you would like to display all the child categories. Alternatively, set to “0” (like in the example below) to show only the top level categories.
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/#section-13
Pass in the current category ID as the parent attribute and your shortcode will only list out child categories.
If you need to get the current category (WP_Term) when you’re viewing one of these pages, use get_queried_object() / get_queried_object_id().
Having re-read your question, it sounds like you may be asking to display products from a given category instead. Should that be the case, use the [product_category] shortcode instead.
Example:
echo do_shortcode( [product_category category="CATEGORY-SLUG"] );
[product_category] will default to showing a maximum of 12 products (limit).
