woocommerce category-widget not working properly

[danielatak]

Hi

I have selected the correct sidebar and added the woocommerce category widget.

Unfortunately it shows the empty categories and dissapears, when i click to a child category.

Is it a settings problem or an error?

Thank you?

I see that, thank you.

I have a question though: How do i set it up, so it only shows the level of the current category or chil-categories? Also, how do I make sure that it only shows categories with products in it?

Hi,
I am not sure.Please check woocommerce category widget settings at Admin -> Appearance -> Woocommerce Sidebar.
Thanks

But isn’t it a standard that it hides the empty categories? If so something is not working correctly!

Hi,
Please try to use this code at functions.php at end of file just before ?> tag:

add_filter('woocommerce_product_categories_widget_args', 'woocommerce_show_empty_categories');
function woocommerce_show_empty_categories($cat_args){
	$cat_args['hide_empty']=0;
	return $cat_args;
}

Hope that should help and let me know your feedback.
Thanks 🙂

Unfortunately that didn’t do the trick 🙁

Do you have any other neat tricks to test?
