Woo Category pages
5 replies · Started by David on April 6, 2021
Hi Everyone, I hope a relaxing Easter was had by those lucky enough to enjoy it!
I have a site that has gone live that uses Woo for Product display (no shopping cart)
The previous developer used the Product Category description field to add HTML to style the 6 or so main category pages.
This provided each of those pages with info followed by the sub categories for that main category. (example linked below)
This works, but is not very friendly for the client.
So my next improvement for this site is to somehow use GP/GB to layout these pages.
So my question is what would be the best way to do this ?
(appreciate this is not a support question per se, but would welcome any thoughts - I'll put it on the Facebook Group too!)
Regards, Dave
Hi there,
current method would be to use a Block Element for each of your Category descriptions:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/block-element-overview/
Create one for each category, select the woocommerce_archive_description hook, and then set the Display Rules to Product Category Archive > 'your archive'
Thanks David,
I'll give that a shot!
Cheers, Dave
You're welcome
Hi David,
Just letting you know I have implemented this on another site to test and it works a treat!
Thanks so much...
Dave
Great to hear that!
