Adding more than 12 categories on homepage

Hi @jennyrrr – you would need to use hooks and filters for that. There’s a similar tutorial here on changing the amount of products per page. Using that as a guide, you’d be able to update it.

Alternatively, you could also add your custom code here and we can have a quick look to see if we can find the syntax error.

Hello

This is the code used:

add_filter( ‘theme_mod_swc_homepage_category_limit’, ‘wc_ninja_swc_homepage_category_limit’, 25 );
function wc_ninja_swc_homepage_category_limit() {
return 20;
}

Hi @jennyrrr – that explains a lot. Did you find this code somewhere else?

Let me try to clarify: the first part of the add_filter() tells the theme where to drop the custom code. However, ‘theme_mod_swc_homepage_category_limit’ isn’t a location in Storefront but another theme. Just updating it and using the proper Storefront theme locations will do the trick:

function sf_custom_category_per_page( $args ) {
	$args['number'] = 20; // Amount of categories to show, no child categories
	$args['columns'] = 5; // Amount of columns
	return $args;
}

add_filter( 'storefront_product_categories_shortcode_args','sf_custom_category_per_page' );

Thank you, worked a treat.

Great to hear that. We’ll mark this thread as resolved now. You can always open a new one.

You can use the Storefront Powerpack to enable this easily…
