    Hello everybody
    widgets from woocommerce mostly do not appear in sidebar.
    Specially filter-widgets & reviews/comments.
    – Attributes have been generated
    – there are at least 100 products where attributes are attached
    – the widgets have been dropped into the correct sidebar

    Here is a video.
    [video src="https://maskenzauber.com/temp/missing-filters.mp4" /]

    Did i miss some settings or are there issues with the theme/plugin?

    Kind regards Bydlo

    Hi There,

    When looking at your video, I see that the Product Attribute Filter is indeed working as expected. The default behaviour of that widget is for it to only show on the product archive view.

    The reason is that attribute filtering only takes place on the shop/archive page – Quite literally, the single product page doesn’t have any other attributes to filter.

    Hi Riaanknoetze
    thanx for explaining.

    That makes me stumble in more questions:
    1:My standard-shoppage does not have a sidebar. Neither my product-categories have. They are all fullwidth.
    Where do i change that?

    2: I thought a filter word create a new URL like for example “…?filter=red”
    In that case the filter would not be executed in the same page and this would be very useful to have, or am i completely wrong?
    What you see here in the sidebar are filters, right?

    3: What options do i have to provide reasonable shop-options from the single product page for a user?
    – Search
    – Latest visit
    – ??

    Kind regards bydlo

    OK – i found the way to get a sidebar into the default shop-page and the shop-categories.

    Now i have to find out how i can style the categorie-view/content that should be shown above the product-grid.

    thanx for helping

    Does soemeone has an explanation why only the price-filter appears, although other woocommerce-widgets (attribute-filter & product-reviews) have been dragged into the sidebar?

    Hi @bydlo

    Can you confirm that you have added global attributes under Products > Attributes then assigned those attributes to products?
