Category Filter / works like attribute?

Weird i was thinking i answered, but don’t see my answer here.
Problem is, we can’t choose category which subcategories we want to select, so even flat layout give us result with 130 or more options on the list.

Solution is, like with attributes for each category create different filter like it works with attribute.
But out of the box it’s not possible. :/
But maybe there is option to add code snippet / some modification / to show only direct categories?

Filter Country
Italy

Filter Color

Thx. There is one reason why we decide some “category” keep as attribute (earlier we have only categories for all).

Now i reduce them and most of them moved to attribute… but some others are still category, because we need landing pages / text / great looking.

Categories give us the possibility to make our page good looking / seo texts/ graphics etc”. Like change title picture / Short description before products / long descriptions after products.

Attributes out of the box have only 1 place where we can put “text”. So “filters” looks better… but page / SEO lost lots of possibilites.

Or maybe i missing something and attribute give us possibility to achieve same… title picture short / long descriptions / html blocks?

Thanks. Complicated. 😉
but maybe this is solution…

I’m little worried how this will be work, with 300 – 400? different for each attribute…

Is this can be a problem for performance?
Layout builder is “woodmart” feature? or if we decide in future change theme it’s can work with another theme?

Hi, thanks.
It’s my mind so “dirty solution” 😉 i’m so worried if we decide change something… i need update 400 pages…

Some feature in layouts works and inherit, but how many products show 9,16,24 and some other there is always something what we need to set… of course we can set it one time… but still i’m little worried.

When we create layout “standard” css is a same, or always all is added to file?

I founded plugin which add second field in attribute for a “long description” after products, so maybe this is solution. Or maybe we change filters… 😉

Hmm… not know, where to go to achieve best seo solution. All choice have some issues.

Ok. We duplicate categories and add them attribute for filters, and now have filters… and now found another problem.

All plugins use to brands = woocommerce brands, not attribute.
Woodmart suggest in documentation “use attribute” co create brands… so we make this… but have a problem, because no others use attribute to brands… so i was thinking to move it to correct place “woocommerce brands”… and again… now Woodmart don’t support filter by brand? i missed something or really we cant’ filter by brand:/ or maybe there is possibility to set this correct?

2. Is possible to set filters where we don’t use AJAX, but after set filter click “filter” and then it’s works? of course there is “product filters” but not support attributes?
