Category template
-
Hello!
I am developing my own woocommerce site and I am having trouble editing the category template. I made a shop template that is shown in https://dacre.shop/shop/ and I want to display the categories the same way.
Now I have customs url in my menu to show the categories, but I want to put them as “Woocommerce categories”, but it is shown with what I found is on the wp-includes/category-template.php.
I tried ovewriting this file with my shop template but it shows an error. How can I solve this?
Thank you!

Hi @magapascansky,
Editing the category template can sometimes be a bit tricky. It looks like you’re trying to customize the style of your WooCommerce categories to match your shop template. However, directly editing the category-template.php file in the wp-includes folder isn’t recommended, as it can lead to errors and may be overwritten during updates.
A more effective approach is to create a custom template file in your theme’s WooCommerce folder. This file can be named taxonomy-product_cat.php and will be used to display product categories. You can copy the contents of your shop template into this file and make any necessary adjustments.
