 * Hi there,
    I am working on a website that uses the Flatsome theme, which has 
   a superb integration of Woocommerce, and I bumped into a problem. I’d like to
   show the products on the category page in list view. By using the Woocommerce
   shortcodes I’m also showing some popular products on the homepage and some special
   products in the (mega) menu. But when I setup the list view for the shop/category
   page, the display of products also changes for the products shown by the shortcodes.
   So, the products on the homepage and menu are shown in list display, while I’d
   like to show them in grid display. Is there any way to solve this issue? Preferable
   without another plugin 🙂 Thanks!

 * Flatsome supports WooCommerce as you say, so you have a reasonable expectation
   that it shouldn’t mess up WooCommerce shortcodes. So I think you need to take
   this up with Flatsome tech support. wordpress.org forum members don’t have access
   to commercial themes.

 * I am not so sure whether this is an issue for Flatsome, I’d like to know how 
   to change the way the shortcodes display the products 🙂 I’m sure it’s possible
   to show Woocommerce products on different ways in one website, I just don’t know
   how.
 * BTW, what do you mean with your last line?

 * So far as I know, which is not saying too much, I’ve not come across different
   ways of showing products using just the WooCommerce core plugin. There is only
   one way as defined by the templates at /plugins/woocommerce/templates/… I suspect
   the other format you describe is achieved by a Flatsome custom template, so switching
   that in or out is best explained by the vendor’s techs.
 * WooCommerce problems are rightly aired here, and sometimes it can be difficult
   to deduce whether a particular issue relates to WC or to a compatible theme, 
   but the forum position on commercial products is elaborated up on here:
