Hello @brucemacg!

I think there is some confusion in this thread: the difference between what you are seeing and what @babylon1999 was showing is due to the fact that he is using our newest Products (Beta) block, and you are using either the shortcode or the old Hand-picked Products block.

To be clear, as far as I know, there is no way to customize the style of the old Hand-picked Products block from the Customizer. Achieving what you want is fairly trivial if you want to change some colors by adding some custom CSS, do you have any knowledge about that?

Essentially, you could target your sale badges and your add to cart buttons with the .wc-block-grid__product-onsale and .wp-element-button.add_to_cart_button selectors respectively, and then with some custom code change some simple styles. It would look something like this:

.wp-element-button.add_to_cart_button {
  background-color: black;
  color: white;
}

To be clear, we do not support these sort of custom workflows and I’m just giving you pointers in case you want to do these simple modifications yourself. What I would encourage you to do, instead, is to follow our latest addition to the blocks, which are always evolving, and try out the Products (Beta) block and give us some feedback.

In a time not too far into the future, you are going to be able to do all of these things that you are requesting and have complete customization control using the Products (Beta) block and similar blocks.

Shortcodes are kind of a paradigm of the past, and blocks are going to make your journey much faster, easier and enjoyable, so I encourage you to get on board and provide feedback regarding your wishes and use-cases!

Hope that was helpful!

Hello Bruce!

Thanks for reaching out and trying our blocks, we’d love for you to be able to transition from the old shortcode paradigm, to the new blocks without much headaches.

First of all, I’d like to thank you for providing a nice example page, that’s really helpful! Regarding the Sale Badge, how do you apply the modification to the original shortcode? Are you using a 3rd party plugin? Or are you applying some custom code snippet that hooks into a filter or a CSS modification?

It would really help to know so that I can try to provide an alternative to that.
Best regards,

Lucio

Hello there!

Thanks for reaching out. Are you referring to our newest “Products (Beta)” block, or are you experiencing this slowness for all WooCommerce blocks?

If you are using the new “Products (Beta)” block, please do keep in mind that this is our newest addition to the blocks and it’s still in beta, so such performance issues could be expected on the editor side. On your customers’ side, however, the performance of the block should be good, let me know if this is not the case.

In any event, could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status? You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”. Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.

Thank you,
Best regards,

Lucio

Hello @poena!

Do I understand correctly, and are you trying to do something like so?

With the latest changes I made, you should be able to do that no problem. However, these changes have not been released yet, and will be part of 7.5.0 which will be released in the next few days. Before that, the minHeight attribute was not supported by the FeaturedProduct block.

However, just be ware that you can’t resize the block smaller than its content, that was a design decision.

I hope this was helpful!

Best,

L.

I tested it with only Polylang + Twentyfifteen. And that still didn’t work. Connecting posts seem to be done correctly, and the problem seemed to be to connect translations to already existing pages.

If I create two new pages, they are linked correctly when I try.

I am also a developer, is there any way I can debug the saving function that could help us discover what went wrong?

Thanks.

Thank you manishie!

Very useful links! ?? I wish these came out of the box with the plugin. Maybe I can do some work and then submit a pull-request. I’ll see what I can do.
