Hello,

With the theme options we can not hide the empty product categories. But you can hide the categories that have no products with custom code. Try to paste the below code in funtion.php:

function woodmart_product_categories_nav() {
		global $wp_query, $post;
		$show_subcategories = woodmart_get_opt( 'shop_categories_ancestors' );
		$show_categories_neighbors = woodmart_get_opt( 'show_categories_neighbors' );
		$list_args = array(  
			'taxonomy' => 'product_cat', 
			'hide_empty' => true 
		);
		// Menu Order

		$list_args['menu_order'] = false;
		$list_args['menu_order'] = 'asc';

		// Setup Current Category

		$current_cat   = false;
		$cat_ancestors = array();

		if ( is_tax( 'product_cat' ) ) {

			$current_cat   = $wp_query->queried_object;
			$cat_ancestors = get_ancestors( $current_cat->term_id, 'product_cat' );
		}

		$list_args['depth']            = 5;
		$list_args['child_of']         = 0;
		$list_args['title_li']         = '';
		$list_args['hierarchical']     = 1;
		$list_args['show_count']       = woodmart_get_opt( 'shop_products_count' );
		$list_args['walker'] = new WOODMART_Walker_Category();

		$class = ( woodmart_get_opt( 'shop_products_count' ) ) ? 'has-product-count' : 'hasno-product-count';

		$shop_link = get_post_type_archive_link( 'product' );

		include_once( WC()->plugin_path() . '/includes/walkers/class-product-cat-list-walker.php' );
		
		if( is_object( $current_cat ) && !get_term_children( $current_cat->term_id, 'product_cat' ) && $show_subcategories && !$show_categories_neighbors ) return;
		
		echo '<div class="woodmart-show-categories"><a href="#">' . esc_html__('Categories', 'woodmart') . '</a></div>';

		echo '<ul class="woodmart-product-categories ' . esc_attr( $class ). '">';
		
		echo '<li class="cat-link shop-all-link"><div class="category-nav-link"><a href="' . esc_url( $shop_link ) . '">
				<span class="category-summary">
					<span class="category-name">' . esc_html__('All', 'woodmart') . '</span>
					<span class="category-products-count">
						<span class="cat-count-label">' . esc_html__('products', 'woodmart') . '</span>
					</span>
				</span>
		</a></div></li>';

		if( $show_subcategories ) {
			woodmart_show_category_ancestors();
		} else {
			wp_list_categories( $list_args );
		}
	echo '</ul>';
}

I used the same code in my site funtion.php and it works just fine:
