Order Product Categories and sub NOT alphabetically

[numidia]

Hi,

I’ve noticed that the theme inserts automatically product cat & relatives subs after the product image, and this is fine for me.
The problem is that the sequence is ordered by alphabet ASC and doesn’t consider the hierarchy between cat and his sub(s).

In the screen attached, you can find a typical situation. It displays “Microalbuminuria, Nefrologia” (ordered alphabetically). The correct sequence should be: “Nefrologia, Microalbuminuria” because Nefrologia is the main category and Microalbuminuria one of their sub.

How can manage it in order to display category first and then sub?

Thanks,
Francesco

Thx,

I think the problem is the method $product->get_categories(); in woocommerce that returns by default cat & sub only in alphabetic order.

Hi,
Please try to put this code at functions.php under theme directory

function wptt_cat_order( $args ){
 
    $args['orderby'] = 'slug';
    $args['order'] = 'ASC';
    return $args;
 
} // wptt_cat_order
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_subcategories_args', 'wptt_cat_order' );

Thanks 🙂

Unfortunately doesn’t work.

I’ve putted it in functions.php in my child theme but nothing changes. I’ve also emptied the cache.
I’m assuming I’ve made a wrong description of my problem.
With this method you probably order alphabetically only the subs. The main problem for me is that the theme displays all the terms in alphabetic ASC mode (cat & sub). I’d love to order with this hierarchy:

C (MAIN CATEGORY), A (FIRST SUB OF C), B (SECOND SUB OF C)

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Please try also this code and let me know your feedback

add_filter('woocommerce_get_catalog_ordering_args', 'woocommerce_catalog_orderby');
function woocommerce_catalog_orderby( $args ) {
	
	$args['order'] = 'asc';
	
    return $args;
}

Thanks 🙂

Any ideas?

Hi there,
Unfortunately that is not part of the current theme functionality, and it’s not within the scope of our support to be able to provide that functionality as it is more work than a small customisation. While we’d love to be able to support every customisation request, we simply don’t have the time. We recommend that you seek a freelance developer if you need that functionality, potentially from one of the below resources:
