Removing a category from woocommerce shop page

Will you please point me in the right direction on how to remove a category from the Woocommerce Shop page. I would prefer not having to add php. Please help.

Hey @eutaw,

Thanks for writing in!

Are you referring to the categories displayed in your sidebar?

You can simply go to Appearance > Widgets and remove the Product Category Widget in your Main Sidebar.

Hope this helps.

Sorry, that was not what I was referring to. On my Shop page, all products are displayed. I don’t want the mask filters (a category) to display on the Shop page. I only want masks on this page.

Hello @eutaw,

Please be informed that the Shop index will display all of your latest products. What you are trying to do, filtering the shop index requires custom development already which is way beyond the scope of our support. To get you started, you may need to check out this article links instead:

Note: We are unable to provide support for customizations under our Support Policy. If you are unfamiliar with code and resolving potential conflicts, you may select our One or Care service for further assistance.

Thank you for your understanding.

Oh, no! Thanks for the referrals.

You are most welcome.

Just one more question. I want to set up a child theme. How do I access the child theme?

Hi @eutaw,

To learn more about Child themes and where you can download it, kindly check this out:

If you want to add a custom PHP code in your child theme’s functions.php file, normally, you can go to Appearance > Theme Editor. This is only possible if file editing is allowed in your WP setup. There are such cases wherein the Theme Editor is not showing because of file permission settings.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your help! I was able to accomplish what I needed with your suggestions! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Glad that we could be of help.

Cheers!
