Hello,
In the widget settings, please select the option “Category order” under the sorting settings.
Then, you can change the display order of categories directly from your WordPress dashboard by going to:
Products > Categories, and dragging and dropping the categories into your preferred order.
Here’s a short video guide for reference: https://youtu.be/ZX9dJhEtw5k
If you’d like to hide specific categories from the shop page, it can be done using a small CSS snippet.
Just let me know which category you’d like to hide, and I’ll check and provide you with the exact CSS code.
Best Regards,
