Strange header behaviour

Hi there,

I would recommend disabling that page hero on shop and category pages.

Then create a new page hero for them using this shortcode:

GPP 2.0 (currently in beta) would make it much easier to do this as well:

Let me know if this helps :)

Hi Leo, when I try to use that code, I get a fatal error-kinda message on the website (also Brackets shows that something's wrong, the curly bracket doesn't seem to be closed).

Can you try this instead?

add_shortcode( 'term_description', 'tu_term_description' );
function tu_term_description() {
    ob_start();
    echo term_description( get_queried_object()->term_id, 'category' );
    return ob_get_clean();
}

And even if I exclude the shop page from the general pages header and create a new header element which is set for the shop page, I still see that strange text...

This code doesn't give an error, thanks, Leo. The above problem is still there though...

Did you use this short code[term_description] instead in the new element?

Yes, this is my code:

<h1>{{post_title}}</h1>
<div class="hero-desc">
	[term_description]
</div>

To me it seems the exclusions aren't working...

I'd really love to solve this problem...

Hi there,

can you share a screenshot of your Elements list ?

Hi David,

here's the image: https://pasteboard.co/JRGT2Fe.jpg

In the Archive Header can you Exclude: Product Archive
And in the Shop Page Header change the location to: Product Archive.

You're a genious, David. I was becoming a bit of a mess. :)

Thanks for your help!

Glad to be of help!
