    How do I display product categories on the shop page? Like this:

    It must be a setting but I can’t find it. I’m assuming you don’t have to do it manually.

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    1) You can use Products element via Visual Composer and there select featured products and latest products.

    2) Navigate to WooCommerce->Settings->Product->Display->Shop Page Display->select Show categories and subcategories.

    This worked. I’m wondering if you could help me set up my products page. Can’t get them to display.

    You’ll see I have 2 categories.

    If you click on categories, the products don’t show up. Though I’ve added 3 products in each category.

    I’d like the product category page to look like:
    https://www.8theme.com/demo/legenda/product-category/bags/

    And the functionality the same for quick view and the single product page. Missing something.

    Thanks if you can help…and thanks if you can’t but can tell me how 😉

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Never mind. I got.

    For anyone else who wants to know how to configure their shop. Make sure you add featured images to each product page (duh) or they won’t display, even if you have added a main image to the page. The main image is for the product only page only. The featured image is used everywhere else.

    To create a homepage with featured products. Go to Settings > Products. Click the star in the products row to feature it.

    To display featured items you’ve “starred” do this:

    1. Go to Pages > Home.
    2. In the Visual Designer click Add New Element > Content > Row.
    3. In the row click + to add new element. Choose WooCommerce >Featured Products
    4. Enter the number of featured products to display per page. In my case it was 3.
    5. Enter the number of columns you want to display per row. I chose 3.
    6. Update. Done.
