Problem w/ Header linking to Woo Product Cat Widget instead of Header Sidebar

[abfchgirlx]

Hi There –

 

I updated Claue to the recent theme, and the Header (below the main navigation) is linking to Woocommerce Product Category Sidebar – which is the same sidebar that hangs out to the left on the woocommerce pages.  It looks kinda silly having the header be widgetized with a sidebar.  Is there any way we can fix this?  I prefer it to link to “Header Sidebar” widget, where the widget is blank and I can put whatever I want in this space in the future.  I also want this space to collapse if nothing is inside this widget area.

 

I don’t want Claue to force me to list my product categories on top of my header image, right below my product category navigation; it’s redundant since the product categories are already on top.

How can this be fixed?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can remove this product categories link below menu by go to Appearance > Widgets > WooCommerce Categories Menu Sidebar and remove all widgets in this area.

But if I empty out the WooCommerce Categories Menu Sidebar….  it will remove it in BOTH locations.  I only want to remove it in one location – which is the header.  How can I do that if the widget is linked to two different spots on the home page?

I want the Product Categories/Search box to remain on the left of the products – like it is currently (see screen shot attached above).

Hi,

You can display on left sidebar by add widget to WooCommerce Sidebar

Okay – followed instructions.  header issue resolved.
WooCommerce Sidebar is not resolved.  It did remove the text – and it won’t show anything in the WooCommerce Sidebar Widget.

I checked the div tag for that field, and it’s empty.  So nothing is being hidden by CSS.  But for whatever reason – that left sidebar code is not connecting to the “WooCommerce Sidebar” widget.

Where in the code files can we properly confirm that the code is connected to “WooCommerce Sidebar widget”?  I think once we find where it’s broken, we can fix it, and then it will properly load the information from the “WooCommerce Sidebar” widget.

 

I have checked my functions.php file – and I cannot find it.
Thanks!

 

PS – Attachment below showing left WooCommerce Sidebar Widget is not showing anything – the widget itself is missing from the theme.

FYI – Marking as resolved.

 

Went into Claue Theme Settings > WooCommerce > Selected which Sidebar “Widget” to use as a Sidebar > saved …. now it’s fixed.

Thanks!
