Show Your Shop Catalog by Category and Subcategory

The WooCommerce Nested Category Layout extension allows you to show products organized by category and sub-category on the shop and catalog pages. By breaking products up by subcategory, this plugin provides an intuitive and attractive catalog layout that your customers will appreciate. Here are before and after shots of the shop page using Nested Category Layout:

WooCommerce typically allows you to show subcategories on shop and category pages (or subcategories and products, but this can look messy). While this is a handy option, it requires that customers click on categories, then subcategories to simply browse products and looks like this:

However, the more barriers you put in the way of finding a product or purchasing, the more likely customers are to leave your site, so we’ve sought to fix that with this plugin. Nested Category Layout cleans this process up and makes it simpler for the user. Instead of requiring customers to click through categories, then subcategories to get to products, it simply creates list on the shop and/or category pages organized by category / subcategory, then allows customers to click a category / subcategory title if they want to see more products.

You can select which categories to nest and which to display normally and determine whether to show this layout on shop pages and category pages, or just on category pages. Want to see this in action? You can check out the Demo Shop that has the plugin running to get a feel for how the shop and catalog pages are changed.

Flexible Display

Don’t have a category for a product? No problem – Nested Category Layout will show these products at the top of the page, then show your categories and subcategories. If a product is in both the parent category and a subcategory, it will be displayed with the appropriate subcategory. If a product is only in a parent category, then it will be displayed in the parent category before subcategories are shown (like this):

    Worst support in history for a paid plugin
    Support for this plugin is absolutely horrible, despite it being paid annually. It also hasn't had an update in a very long time.

    I have been using this plugin for a long time; when I tried to update it I had some difficulties. The support helped me - for several days - until the problem was solved. Well done!

    I LOVE THIS
    I am so freaking disorganized. Honestly. This nesting category plug in has been a savior to me. I have 3 main categories of artwork and this helps to break it down so customers can specifically browse ...

    I strongly dislike the way the categories and subcategories display in WooCommerce, so I consider this plugin is a must for a great looking shop. I use the Divi theme for nearly every website I create, and discovered that something wasn't working as expected when developing a new site in late 2020. I had it set to display 6 items in each subcategory, but it was only showing anywhere from 1-3 products and the shop looked terrible. Though both sets of support teams came close to giving up on a solution for this troublesome and very unsightly issue, SkyVerge pressed on through until they found a solution - a simple code snippet that forced whatever was interfering with the proper display to do...
