Product archive page organisation

    I’m pretty new to WooCommerce, so looking for some guidance on best practice in terms of Page organisation.

    I would like to have some menu items on my home page to link to various combinations of product categories and tags e.g. the tools product category and the popular product tag which would display a product archive page with those filters set.

    Is it recommended to use WooCommerce shortcodes and have separate pages for each of these combinations and therefore unique page links, or is there a better way that doesn’t involve multiple pages and perhaps uses query string parameters (or some other method) to dynamically set the filter?

    Thanks
    Martin

    Howdy Martin,

    While your approach above will work, it might require a lot of additional, manual maintenance if you changed any of your categories or tags. It might still be practical if you have only a small inventory, but a better way is to use filters to do the sorting for you.

    WooCommerce has a few built in widgets that allows sorting by price and attributes, but to add the power of filtering by category and tags, you’ll need an extension like Product Filters for WooCommerce.

    If you have more specific questions about that extension, feel free to ask them via this sales form:
