Nevermind, I figured it out.
Here’s what I did for others that are interested:
#1) I created a file in my child theme called “functions.php”, adding the following code in the file:
<?php // Leave 3 spaces between these php brackets to put your own custom functions in
?>
#2) Add the following code into that file I just created (and save):
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'custom_pre_get_posts_query' );
function custom_pre_get_posts_query( $q ) {
if ( ! $q->is_main_query() ) return;
if ( ! $q->is_post_type_archive() ) return;
if ( ! is_admin() && is_shop() ) {
$q->set( 'tax_query', array(array(
'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => array( 'partners' ), // Don't display products in the PARTNERS category on the shop page
'operator' => 'NOT IN'
)));
}
remove_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'custom_pre_get_posts_query' );
}
Doing it this way, I’m able to continually add as many custom woocommerce functions (called “Snippets) as I want.
Here are a ton of great customization snippets others might enjoy:

Hope this helps others.
