store pages with content issues

    hi all I have ran into an issue whilst trying to build store pages in a static style i have found a thread from 2 years ago that was very similar but issues are different

    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/customize-woocomerce-category-pages/

    it is on a temporary URL as im playing with ideas and seeing what can be done and whats beyond my capability my store is currently on ecwid but i ran into issues with trying to get what i want on page on the page

    so ive built a few category pages with spectra/gutenberg (theme is astra) but preview looks great navigation however ignores the blocks and just shows standard category page even adding woo commerce blocks don’t show up any further than preview

    https://chriss214.sg-host.com/product-category/store-home/pipe-and-fittings

    from the previous thread I see the idea is setup a whole new set of products but the last comment on the thread above made me think the categories need to exist purely to act as a grouping tool but the comment read he had redirected the category at the page would this not cause an issue if the destination page has the redirected page embedded via a block? or is it not embedded and the category is as my first thought that it is a grouping tool in this instance

    instead of redirecting can the categories be on a hidden page with store home on a no index page with an alternative slug and a new content rich page on the url that would normally be the standard store home page?

    or maybe all of the above is overthinking and really i need to select a single option for it to work!

    Thank you for reaching out, inquiring about how you can create a bespoke look and feel for your WooCommerce store.

    Just to note, WooCommerce Blocks offers a range of Gutenberg blocks you can use to build and customize your site.

    Feel free to check out the available blocks, and how they fit with your customization needs.

    Regarding product categories, I went ahead with visiting the page at https://chriss214.sg-host.com/product-category/store-home/pipe-and-fittings/ and 22 out of the 24 products there are variable, while they are spread in two pages, using pagination.

    instead of redirecting can the categories be on a hidden page with store home on a no index page with an alternative slug and a new content rich page on the url that would normally be the standard store home page?

    or maybe all of the above is overthinking and really i need to select a single option for it to work!

    Could you elaborate on the customer flow, since visiting your WooCommerce store, please? That would help get a better idea of the implementation needed.

    I trust that points you in the right direction, but if you have more questions, let us know. We’re happy to help.
