[Resolved] Page headers – Woocommerce product category image as feature image

[Altti]

Hey there,

I’m trying to make a global header for WooCommerce product categories. Is there any way to use the category thumbnail as background image (same way as feature-image)?

Cheers,
Anssi

Hi there,

Currently this isn’t possible unfortunately – but we’re working on a solution 🙂

Oh. Too bad. Seems so obvious that it should work like that. I need to think something else then.

Thanks for the quick reply Tom.

If you use the new Page Heros in GPP 1.7, you should be able to use a function like this:

add_filter( 'generate_page_hero_background_image_url', function( $url ) {
	if ( function_exists( 'is_product_category' ) && function_exists( 'get_woocommerce_term_meta' ) && is_product_category() ) {
		global $wp_query;

		$cat = $wp_query->get_queried_object();

		$thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );

		if ( $thumbnail_id ) {
			$url = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id );
		}
	}

	return $url;
} );
