Setup extra taxonomy

    Hello. I’m creating fashion website, so I’m going to need a bit different categorization.

    Idea is to have men, women and kids as main cats, and clothing, shoes, bags etc as categories.

    Now, instead of creating hierarchical type like:
    -men
    –clothing-men
    –shoes-men
    -women
    –clothing-women
    –shoes-women

    I’d like to have:
    -men
    –clothing
    –shoes
    -women
    –clothing
    –shoes.

    This might be accomplished by creating additional taxonomy. So, i’ve created custom taxonomy that should contain gender, and native WC product_cats that should contain types (clothing, shoes etc). Now, when setting up product, i’d have base_category set to for example men, and product_cat set as clothing. In the end, i’d like to get /shop/men/clothing and it should filter thourgh all clothing items that also have base_category set as men.

    Hope I did not confuse you too much. Any idea how to proceed from there? If someone has any other idea (except using the combination of tags and product_cat), I’m all ears too. Thanks.

    Hello @guev4ra,

    Thank you for reaching out!

    . Now, when setting up product, i’d have base_category set to for example men, and product_cat set as clothing. In the end, i’d like to get /shop/men/clothing and it should filter thourgh all clothing items that also have base_category set as men.

    May I ask why you didn’t go with a parent/child category setup? It will achieve exactly what you want here. Everything in shop/men/clothing will contain all products that are categorised as men > clothing.
