 * Hi,
 * This is my first installation of Woocommerce with a Wootheme.
    I hace created
   a category named “CV” with slug “cv”. I have created one product and added it
   to category “CV”. I have created one page and added the shortcode “[product_category
   category=”cv” per_page=”12″ columns=”4″ orderby=”date” order=”desc”]” However,
   when I go to the page I don’t see any product in it. What am I doing wrong?
 * Thanks!

 * my website, [http://www.heartohomewreaths.com](http://www.heartohomewreaths.com)
   isn’t working either. I’ve created several “pages” for each category, so people
   can navigate via the categories. But when you click on the category, it doesn’t
   show products, but instead shows images. I’m using the product category shortcode,
   not the slug one.
