[Support request] Remove Categories from Sidebar in Brands

[troyw]

Hey guys,
Not sure if this is something you can answer as it may be something in the way ‘Woocommerce Brands plugin’ works.

The issue I face is when I go to a Brands Page on the front end the left sidebar displays every Product Category available, including unrelated categories. (I have set up ‘Product Categories’ in Left Side Bar Widget).

Ideally, I would like to present the Brands Widget instead of the Product Categories only on the Brands page. Product Categories work fine on Product and Category pages. I added the Brands widget to the left sidebar and it works on ‘Category’ pages, but not ‘Brand’ Pages?

Failing that, even if I could remove the Categories from the side bar when on a brands page, it would look much better.
I tried adding this to my functions php but it did not work;

/* Remove Categories from Brands */
remove_action( 'product_brand',
'woocommerce_template_single_meta', 40 );

Any ideas how I can either remove categories from side bar in ‘Brands’ pages only and replace with Brands list instead
or
Just remove Product Categories from the ‘Brand Pages’.

This might be an issue with the actual plugin itself, so I understand if you don’t have a way around this.

Thanks

Hi there,

This does sounds like something you will need to check with the plugin support.

If you are simply looking for a way to use the conditional sidebar, then a plugin like this might help:
