About this plugin
Product Category helps you display WooCommerce product categories in a clean, customizable, and conversion-friendly way. Instead of sending visitors through a plain category list, you can build stylish category sections that guide shoppers toward the products they want faster.
Use it on landing pages, shop pages, homepages, blog posts, sidebars, and custom layouts. Whether you prefer the Block Editor, Elementor, SiteOrigin, or a simple shortcode, Product Category gives you a practical way to showcase selected categories with layout, typography, image, color, and pagination controls.
The plugin is built for store owners, designers, and developers who want more control over how WooCommerce categories appear without writing custom templates.
Compatible with:
- Shortcode for classic pages, posts, and custom content areas.
- Block Editor with a dedicated Gutenberg product category block.
- SiteOrigin Editor with a product category widget.
- Elementor with a product category widget.
The main strength of this plugin is its editor flexibility: choose your preferred workflow, select the categories you want to highlight, and adjust the display to match your store design.
