I'm currently using elementor as the page builder and would like to show the product categories in a section of the homepage.

While the shortcode [woof] returns all the enabled filters using [product_cat] doesn't display anything.

I'm wondering if I'm missing something really simple.

Hello Martyn

My plugin is a filter. This is the list of shortcodes of my plugin - https://products-filter.com/codex  - as you can see this shortcode is not in the list of my plugin and I have no idea where you got this shortcode. But in this case, you'd better write in support of the author of this third-party shortcode

OR  use  woocommerce  shortsodes - https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/  an example:

[product_categories number="0" parent="0"]

Hey,

Thanks for coming back to me.

Sorry, I probably should have explained it much better than I did.

Basically, I just want to use this filter on the homepage using a shortcode.

I got the shortcode from this part of the filter

https://ibb.co/cv5NWDd

I'm hoping that it's possible as it does everything I need it to do.

Please  read  docs - https://products-filter.com/shortcode/woof

https://ibb.co/cv5NWDd - it's not a shortcode, it's a taxonomy slug. This slug will help you customize the shortcode

an example: [woof tax_only='product_cat' by_only='none']  - to show  only filter by category

Read more in the shortcode documentation about attributes:  tax_only  by_only - https://share.pluginus.net/image/i20221014101318.png

Hi Pablo,

Apologies for my basic mistake, I'm now sorted.

I got completely confused.
