 * Hello,
 * I am trying to do the following to my category & subcategory pages but can’t 
   seem to find a solution:
 * 1. How can remove subcategory thumbnails in category pages (before the 1st product
   shows up)? [https://snipboard.io/k1RcLA.jpg](https://snipboard.io/k1RcLA.jpg)
 * 2. How can I add a country filter on the side bar under the price filter (so 
   people can search for a drop down of countries to show only products from there?)
 * Best,
    Mary

 * 1. Do you mean how can you prevent the categories from showing before your products?
   If so, this can be adjusted on the screen you show in your image. Your Product
   Catalog settings in customizer will adjust WooCommerce’s default display options.
 * I see from your screenshot you’ve already adjust that so you’ll want to check
   if your theme is using it’s own template to override this, or if another plugin
   on your site is showing that.
 * To check your theme go to Appearance > Themes and then click the “Live Preview”
   option on either the [Twenty Twenty](https://wordpress.org/themes/twentytwenty/)
   or [Storefront](https://woocommerce.com/storefront/) theme. If you don’t have
   either of those themes installed, you can install one of them for free.
 * If the issue is resolved with either of those themes, you will need to contact
   your theme’s developer as their templates are causing this.

 * Hi Phil,
 * Thanks for your response!
 * For #1, I see I have the same problem when I do live preview in other themes,
   so then it must be a plug in I guess?
 * Regarding #2, is there a way I add a country filter on the side bar under the
   price filter (so people can search for a drop down of countries to show only 
   products from there?)
 * Best,

 * There isn’t a country or product location in WooCommerce. The closest workaround
   would be to add countries as attributes. Then apply the appropriate attributes
   to your products and allow customers to filter by that. You could also do the
   same with tags, though WooCommerce doesn’t have a product filter by tag widget,
   so you’d need to use a plugin for that such as: [https://woocommerce.com/products/product-filters/](https://woocommerce.com/products/product-filters/)

 * Hey [@pleazo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pleazo/)
 * Hopefully Phil’s pointers helped you to a solution here. As we haven’t heard 
   back from you in a while I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any
   further questions, you can start a new thread.
 * Thanks,
