WooCommerce Shortcode [sale_products] not showing products?

As a workaround, add this code to your functions.php:

// DELETE ON SALE TRANSIENTS WHEN POST SAVED
function delete_sale_transients() {
global $post;
if( $post->post_type == 'product' ) {
delete_transient( 'wc_products_onsale' );
}
}
add_action( 'save_post', 'delete_sale_transients' );

And just open and save anyone of your products to refresh cache data.

Anyway, we’re still waiting for a better solution from WooCommerce guys.

@leandro Martins Guimar?es. Sweet! thank you! works like a charm!
I will also leave a thanks to “otggamer”!

I’m sure it will be fixed in the new version

Lots of thanks to the posters, it worked for me, also.

This did not work for me on WooCommerce Version 2.3.9.

What is the latest solution to this problem?

@justravis, try the just released version 2.3.10

Unfortunately, I’m getting the same problem in 2.3.10.
