    Hi,

    Filter widget is placed on narrow sidebar. Names of categories are very long and take two or more lines, which makes sidebar ugly.

    I want to create additional custom field for categories called ‘short_sidebar_name’ and load it in place of normal category name. But I don’t know which file I should edit. Can you help me?

    PS. I know I will have to corect it after every update, but it is not my decision.

    OK,

    I have done:
    0. I’ve created custom field with Advanced Custom fields plugin.
    1. File to modify was \wp-content\plugins\woocommerce-products-filter\views\html_types\checkbox.php
    2. Code looks like (starts in 204-th line):

    //before changes: echo $term['name'];
//after:
if( class_exists('acf') ) {
$woo_cat_number = 'product_cat_'.$term['term_id'];
$woo_brand_number = 'pwb-brand_'.$term['term_id'];
$cat_krotka_nazwa = get_field('krotka_nazwa',$woo_cat_number);
$brand_krotka_nazwa = get_field('krotka_nazwa',$woo_brand_number);
if (($cat_krotka_nazwa=='') and ($brand_krotka_nazwa=='')){
echo $term['name'];
}else{
echo $cat_krotka_nazwa;
echo $brand_krotka_nazwa;
}
}else{
echo $term['name'];
}
