Page template for custom taxonomy

Hi, I’m hoping to use the same template used by the shop and product category pages for a custom taxonomy I’m using for products. Is there a particular file name I should use for that or place I should put it?

Hi,

You can read an information about template system for taxonomies in official WordPress documentation https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/taxonomy-templates/
It will show you how to create a template file for your custom taxonomy.

Regards

Thanks for your help! I know how to do that, and I’ve done it, but it doesn’t seem to want to hook into what you have set up for the shop template. I just copied over the file at woodmart > woocommerce > archive-product.php for my taxonomy but it stripped out the header, filters, and sidebar. How can I get those to use your theme elements?

Could you please send us a link where we can see how it looks now?

The shop page is at: https://proformulas85.staging.wpengine.com/shop

The custom taxonomy page is at: https://proformulas85.staging.wpengine.com/system_category/condition-symptom-remedies/

I just added the sidebar manually on the taxonomy page but can’t seem to get the section with the page title to show, no matter what I do.

Hello,

Enter the page editing mode and find the option “Disable Page title” disable it and the title will appear.

Best Regards

This isn’t an actual page, it’s a taxonomy archive, so I don’t have a page editing mode for it. Is there another way to enable to page title?

In this situation, you will have to perform additional code customization for this particular taxonomy page. You can do this in the file inc/template-tags.php. Sorry, but we don’t have a quick solution for this and extra code customizations are out of themes support scope.

Thanks. You should really think about having a theme that has a page title on a custom taxonomy. Seems like a very normal thing to need a theme to do.

Thank you for the suggestion. We will consider adding some functionality there.

Regards
