How do I set featured products in WooCommerce

  • Hi, I’d like to have a slider of featured products on my shopping site.

    WooCommerce seems to refer to something called ‘featured products’ but I cant find anywhere how you set this up. So my questions are: How to I mark products as ‘featured’. And once I do, how to I get them on the front page?

    I have found a ‘featured products’ widget that I have dragged into the sidebar, and I have also tried adding to a page:
    [featured_products per_page=”12″ columns=”4″]

    Under my theme setting (I’m using ‘Wootique’) I have set ‘Home page featured products’ to ‘Slider’ and under Settings > Reading, I have FrontPage = ‘Shop’

    I am a complete WordPress newbie by the way so please dont assume I should have already done something obvious.
    Thanks.

    WooCommerce: 1.6.5.2

  • I found it! For anyone who was wondering or for future reference the “Featured Products” title on the homepage is located in the theme-woocommerce.php

    echo ‘<h1>’.__(Featured Products’, ‘woothemes’).'</h1>’;

    hi guys.. been reading your conversation.. seems like i am not even able to figure out how to list my products on homepage, let alone worry about the featured products and the image thingy.. i did ‘star’ my products but can’t seem to find any option how to have the products show up on my home page.. ?

    Hi
    I am unable to see the 5th product after clicking the “next” link under 4 products displayed on the homepage. Any idea how to sort out the pagination?
    Regards,

    Click the Star!

    Thanks! Now the widget shows up!

    Homepage slider is located at wp-admin/admin.php?page=woothemes (Homepage Settings>>Homepage Featured Products drow down..

    Plus tip: Reg thumbnails to a higher size for better slider images quality. (You will need to use the Regenerate thumbnails plugin).

    1. In your WordPress dashboard browse to products.
    2. on right side click on *(Star) to make your product feature product.

    There is no star, images are uploaded and I dont know what else you all are talking about with the code.

    How do you make the products (not necessarily featured) show up in the home page? Any ideas?

    OK, nevermind I found out how to do that.. just wondering how to cram all the posts and categories into a link and store it into your ecommerce site…
