Solved Is there a Divi module that outputs a list of the categories

Hi there,

Is there a module that generates a list of the categories from the Woo Commerce system? I've found the Woo Products module that will list items in a category, but I'd like a module that lists the categories themselves. As per the screenshot below.

 

Thanks, I've just found it and looked at it, but it's very limited and will take a lot of code to customize it to get what I want. Unless I find a better approach, I think I'll just have create them manually using another module with a link.

 

Further update - Just thought you might like to know, I've tried the shortcode idea again, but I used ChatGPT to generate a function that only output the parent categories I wanted listed and once that was working, refined the function to output the html I needed for styling. This has worked pretty well, so far.

 

Adding to this, for those that may not be aware, the function that ChatGPT created was added to the Divi theme function.php file to work.

 

Though it might be more helpful if I actually included the code.

The shortcode it uses is [parent_product_categories]

The following function gets placed in the Divi themes 'functions.php' file.



function display_parent_product_categories() {
$args = array(
'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
'parent' => 0, // Set to 0 to retrieve only parent categories
'hide_empty' => false,
);

$categories = get_terms($args);

if ($categories) {
$output = '<div class="parent-category">';

foreach ($categories as $category) {
$image_url = get_term_meta($category->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true);
$image_url = wp_get_attachment_url($image_url);

$output .= '<div class="category-item">';
$output .= '<h2 class="cat-title">' . esc_html($category->name) . '</h2>';

// Get the total number of products in the category
$product_count = $category->count;
$output .= '<p class="cat-prods-total">' . $product_count . ' Products</p>';

// Display category image
if ($image_url) {
$output .= '<img src="' . esc_url($image_url) . '" alt="' . esc_attr($category->name) . '" class="prod-cat-img">';
}

// Button to see the range
$category_link = get_term_link($category->term_id, 'product_cat');
$output .= '<a href="' . esc_url($category_link) . '" class="cat-see-range">SEE RANGE</a>';

$output .= '</div>'; // Close category-item
}

$output .= '</div>'; // Close parent-category
return $output;
} else {
return 'No parent product categories found.';
}
}
add_shortcode('parent_product_categories', 'display_parent_product_categories');
