When a user visits my WooCommerce Category pages, I want the sidebar to display a list of categories that varies depending on what the current category is.
There is a default "WooCommerce Category Widget", that shows all product categories on the website. However, I don't want to show all these.
I simply want to show either:
A) If the current category is a parent category, the list of categories must show the children categories only
or
B) If the current category is a child category, the list of categories must show the sibling categories only (sibling = categories with the same parent)
Example:
Parent Category 1 - Child Category 1A - Child Category 1B Parent Category 2 - Child Category 2A - Child Category 2B
If the user visits Parent Category 1 in the example above, the sidebar should show this:
- Child Category 1A
- Child Category 1B
I've tried using the default WooCommerce Category Widget.
I've also found this article from 2014, that describes the exact same problem: http://www.kablooeystudios.com/woocommerce-sidebar-parents-or-children/
The article provides af solution, but when I implement the code, I can't get it to work. Perhaps I haven't put the code the right place - and if so, where should I put it? (I've tried putting it in my child theme's functions.php.
