Categories Hook

  • I’m trying to call the product category above each item on my page. Is there a hook or php function that I can use to do that? I’ve tried everything from get_the_categories() to get the terms functions and nothing is working. The only one I got to work is the one that calls the categories on top of the /products page but in my loop it’s repeating all 4 categories I’ve created on top of each product. I just want to display the first category for that specific product.

    Hi!

    You can use single_product_begin or before_product_entry hooks to show something on the top of product page.

    To show product categories that the current product is attached to you need to get categories IDs. The best way is to use wp_get_post_terms function. The taxonomy name for products is al_product-cat.

    When you have the categories ID’s you can show them e.g. with [show_categories] shortcode.

    You can see how eCommerce Product Catalog does it in show_related_categories function.
