Woocommerce Shop Page - Select Categories to Show

[Curiouser]

Hi there,
I’d like to do this to my Woocommerce Shop on X theme, please let me know if it’s something I can control with X or Cornerstone.

1. Have only certain categories of products show on the main SHOP page. Right now it’s default to ALL.
2. Easily customize/style the area above the SHOP section (with text and opt-in boxes, etc.) using Cornerstone. Right now it’s kind of a hybrid code/cornerstone hack -www.amytwon.com/shop

Thanks so much!

Hi there,

1- It is not possible to have a listing of the shop page change unless you do some customization. I suggest that you change the main shop page to another page from the Woocommerce settings, and make the shop page a simple page. Then use the Woocommerce shortcodes inside the Classic Raw element of the Cornerstone to show products of a specific category:

Shortcodes included with WooCommerce - WooCommerce Docs

Please read the Scenario 5 of the article below which I think will be the one for your case:

[products limit="8" columns="4" category="hoodies, tshirts" cat_operator="AND"]

2- Now that you have the Cornerstone at hand to add the top section, you can use the elements of the Cornerstone to do so. Whenever you need custom HTML code you can use the Classic Raw Content element and add the HTML code inside.

Thank you.
