WooCommerce Category/Archive Page Showing Child Products

    Why does WooCommerce show child category products, when I am not viewing that child category?

    See illustration: https://i.imgur.com/jbGtail.jpg

    The ticks / crosses indicate what should / shouldn’t be displayed.

    My category structure is:

    Level 1
    – Level 2
    – Level 3
    – Level 4

    If I am on the category/archive page for LEVEL 1, why does WooCommerce show me the products that are in categories Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4?

    How can I stop WooCommerce displaying child category products, when I am not viewing that child category?

    This occurs in ALL themes I have tried – Flatsome, Seventeen, Sixteen, Fifteen etc. So it is NOT a theme issue.

    Thanks

    Hi there,

    Just to make sure, do you have the checkbox for “Only show children of the current category” enabled when configuring that widget?

    Thanks!

    Hi RK,

    I am not talking about the accordion widget on the left, I am talking about the main area on the page displaying the category and child products.

    @bluebirdwebdev,

    Go to Appearance → Customize → WooCommerce → Product Catalog and make sure you’ve selected Show products under Category display as highlighted in this screenshot – https://cld.wthms.co/JleoZw.

    It looks like you currently have it set to Show subcategories & products

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
