[Resolved] Woocommerce exclude products from shop – workshops

[_blank]

Hi
I’m trying to remove 2 categories from the shop landing page using a PHP snippet from woocommerce.
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/exclude-a-category-from-the-shop-page/

The 2 product categories/slugs are events and workshops

The snippet is here:

/**
* Exclude products from a particular category on the shop page
*/
function custom_pre_get_posts_query( $q ) {

$tax_query = (array) $q->get( ‘tax_query’ );

$tax_query[] = array(
‘taxonomy’ => ‘product_cat’,
‘field’ => ‘slug’,
‘terms’ => array( ‘workshops’ ), // Don’t display products in the workshops category on the shop page.
‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’
);

$q->set( ‘tax_query’, $tax_query );

}
add_action( ‘woocommerce_product_query’, ‘custom_pre_get_posts_query’ );

Hi there,

So the code isn’t working?

Have you checked with WooCommerce’ support on this?

The code is from them.

Hi Leo

I had a look but can’t find support options for their free plugins. Will try to contact them again.
Do you have any ideas/suggestions on how I might achieve the same results. I’m using Beaver Builder to display the Categories.

Thanks
Scott

Hi Scott, i tried the code for a single category on a non pagebuilder shop and it works. So must be a BB thing. Woo don’t really provide support for their free stuff. If you’re using the BB module, then this may help:

Hi David

Thats really helpful – I’ll contact BB and try a GP page as well for the Shop.
