[solved] woocommerce expand or show only current categories in sidebar menu

We needed to “Only show children of the current category” but this setting in “Woocommerce Product Categories Widget” hides parents, so here’s a solution.

add css to expand or show only current categories in sidebar menu:

expand:

.cat-parent li.cat-item {display:none; }
li.current-cat-parent,  li.current-cat,  li.current-cat li.cat-item,  .current-cat-parent li.cat-item {display:list-item !important;}

only show current category, where all categories have sub categories (like https://925e.com or https://ourjewelleryshop.com ):

li.cat-parent, .cat-parent li.cat-item {display:none; }
li.current-cat-parent,  li.current-cat,  li.current-cat li.cat-item,  .current-cat-parent li.cat-item {display:list-item !important;}
