Shortcode for showing product categories order=”include” not working

    Hello everyone,

    Today I was setting up my website with woocommerce and wanted a page that shows the specific categories in a specific order. So I used shortcode: [product_categories include="35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48" orderby="include" ]
    But it just does not want to show them in the order I used in the include?

    Also how do I remove the default “No category”, when hide_empty="0"?
    I do not want to show this category. This also just ignores the include for some reason?

    This should be possible according to these docs:
    https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/product-category/

    Is this a bug or did I do something wrong?

    Thanks in advance,
    Kind Regards

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi there!

    Here’s the corrected version of your response:

    I understand your concern. It seems like the shortcode you are using is not correct. Instead of using include="35, 36, 37", please use ids="35, 36, 37".

    This is how the shortcode should appear:

    [product_categories ids="16,19,18,162" orderby="include"]

    You can change the IDs in the shortcode to match your category IDs. By default, categories without products will not appear on the site when using the shortcode I shared earlier. However, adding hide_empty="0" to the shortcode will display categories even if they do not have any products.

    For more details, you can refer to this article: WooCommerce Product Category Shortcodes.

    I hope this helps
