Solve WooCommerce WordPress Template Category Display Issue



Do you ever get the dreaded “Categories not displaying” error message in your WooCommerce WordPress Template? It’s one of the most common issues users have — but it doesn’t have to be a huge headache. In this post, we’re going to show you how to fix this issue quickly and easily.

First off, you need to make sure that the categories are actually set up and visible in your WordPress Dashboard. Log into your dashboard and navigate to the “Products” tab. Under this tab, you should see the “Categories” option. If it’s not visible, then you haven’t set up your categories yet. Create the categories you need and they should then be visible in your template.

If the categories are set up and visible, then the next step is to check if the display settings are correct. There are several settings that need to be configured to make sure the categories show up properly. Firstly, navigate to the WooCommerce settings page in your dashboard. Then look for the “Display” tab and make sure that the “Show Categories” option is checked.

If this option is already checked and the categories are still not showing, the next step is to check the visibility of the categories. It’s possible that the categories are visible on the back end but not on the front end. To check for this, navigate to the “Products” tab in your dashboard and click on one of the categories. On the category page, you should see an option for “Visibility”. If this option is set to “Hidden” then the category will not be visible on the front end. Change the visibility to “Visible” and the category should then show up.

Finally, if all else fails, check the caching and security settings in your WordPress template. Temporary caching and security measures can cause some issues with the display of the categories. Make sure your caching plugin is up to date and that you have the latest security updates installed.

In conclusion, the “Categories not displaying” issue in WooCommerce WordPress Templates can be a pain but it doesn’t have to be. With the right configuring and troubleshooting, you should be able to get your categories back up and running in no time.
