Keeping the WooCommerce Sidebar Open when Viewing

Hi Guys,

Just had a question about viewing product categories. I noticed when you view a sub-category page URL like: http://demo.xtemos.com/basel/product-category/other/bicycles/ and this sub-category is within a category like “Other” the product categories sidebar defaults to simply show all categories (like this: http://c2n.me/3CVLRfa.jpg), it doesn’t expand the menu like: http://c2n.me/3CVLH2b.jpg so you can see other sub-categories within “Other” ?

Is there an option to change this?

Thanks,
Jay

Hello,

Thank you for the message.

Unfortunately, there is no such option at the moment. But we will take this into consideration as a feature request and probably add in the next update because it may be very useful for you and our other customers 🙂

Hi Xtemos,

That’s unfortunate. I guess there might be a way of hacking the menu via CSS in the mean time? It’s definitely logical that the current sidebar category stays open when you are viewing products within that category.

Hello,

Hacking with CSS will not give you the right result, it will work incorrectly. Are you able to wait till the next update (in 12-14 days)? We will add this function fo sure.

Hi guys,

That’s fine, I can wait for an update 🙂 Thanks for all your help!

I’m looking forward to the update, feel free to credit me in the changelog hehe! 😀

Hey Xtemos,

I didn’t get a notification from themeforest that there was an update? weird..

Hi Guys,

I’ve just updated the theme but now the shop filters on the left have disappeared? I’ve checked the widgets and nothing has changed, it’s there.. ?

Please help!
