    Would someone kindly type out the short code for showing the products in a specific category?

    I created a top-level category for a new page I created separate from the default WooCommerce shop page. This new page is for products I sell that are assigned to a specific category.

    I tried [product_category number=”77″ parent=”0″], [product_category number=”77″] (77 is my category ID) but this is pulling all top-level categories onto the page and the second one does’t work at all. I only want the products from a single category.

    Hi @ladysyren sorry for the frustration.

    The correct shortcode should be 

    [product_category category= "77"]

    . That should display your category correctly.

    Cheers,

    Jim

    Hi there!

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. To display products from a specific category, please try using the following shortcode:

    [product_category category= "77" limit="12" columns="4"]

    This will display only the products from that specific category and nothing else. For more details, you can refer to this guide:

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you both so much! Both worked and I’ve copied them to notepad for safe keeping, as well.
