Hello,

Within WooCommerce categories you can select a display type. The options are:

– Default
– Subcategories
– Products
– Both

Whenever creating a template, i do not need the same widgets to be shown on the ‘products’ type as for ‘subcategories’.

Currently im fine with how the products type looks. But i want the sidebar and top widget removed within the subcategories view. Example: https://prnt.sc/24onYnfFaVCD

How can this be achieved?

Best regards,
Chartnet

Dear @Chartnet,

At this time, you have the option to create other templates and configure the conditions according to your specific requirements. Please refer to the following link for guidance: https://prnt.sc/AHQ8iDP8gfGT.

For example, you can create one template with a condition to display it with a sidebar for all product archive pages, and another to display exclusively on the shop page. This setup will allow you to display categories only on the main shop page without a sidebar or additional sections, while ensuring that the sidebar and other sections appear on category, subcategory, and other taxonomy pages.

Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Hello Jack,

This is not exactly what i am looking for.
Now i have this: https://prnt.sc/Ki_sVK4AWlmi

What i want is that ‘Display type: Subcategories’ looks like: https://prnt.sc/EyA1n32CGanm

And that ‘Display type: Products’ looks like: https://prnt.sc/V0lpXo0fGR_0

They are both a category archive.. but i want a different layout based on the display type.

Best regards
