Only show subcategories and products of current category?

    In the WooCommerce settings, if you uncheck “When showing subcategories, hide products” it shows all products underneath that category, even under any of the current sub-level categories.

    I need a variant of that—is there a way to only show products of the *current category* but not any of the subcategories?

    For example, if I’m currently browsing Subcategory A, right now it shows:

    Main Category
    * Subcategory A
    * * Subcategory B
    * * Subcategory C
    * Products of Subcategory A
    * Products of Subcategory B
    * Products of Subcategory C

    We’d like it to show:

    Main Category
    * Subcategory A
    * * Subcategory B
    * * Subcategory C
    * Products of Subcategory A

    Especially when you’re on Main Category, it shows all products underneath that category as well as any subcategories. I just need subcategories.

    I don’t have any products underneath the Main Category so it shouldn’t display any products.

    I made a copy of archive-product.php and woocommerce_product_subcategories() so I could experiment but at a loss as to what to change the wp_query to only query products in the current category (but not any of the children).

    Thanks,

  • I have the same inquiry. I think its really strange that by default it displays all of them on the parent categories especially on the homepage.

    Someone from woocommerce is looking into this right now, I will update this if I get a solution.

    thanks,
