I'm facing a problem with the structure that I would like to implement inside my woocommerce. I would like to create a shop page with 4 layers hierarchy.

My goal is to make customer navigate in this way: once they click on shop they should see three main category like MAKES (ex. MAKES 1 - MAKES 2 - MAKES 3) - once they click on one of them they land on a second page where they see all subcategory of that one called MODELS (ex. MODEL 1 - MODEL 2 - MODEL 3 - MODEL 4) - once they click on one of them they land on YEARS category (ex. YEAR 1 - YEAR 2 - YEAR 3 - YEAR -4) - in the end they see the last layer of subcategories named COMPONENTSTYPE (ex. COMPONENTSTYPE 1 - COMPONENTSTYPE 2 - COMPONENTSTYPE 3) and then all the products from that component type folder.

So to sum up everything I need MAKES - MODEL - YEAR - COMPONENT hierarchy navigation inside my shop page.

Any ideas? Thanks

  • I don't know the use-case you are trying to achieve, but have you considered using a filtering mechanism instead of the hierarchical "category" like structure you are proposing here? With a filter mechanism you will start with all products on the page and you can choose whatever filter you will apply, so you can first apply a make then a model, or first a year and component, etc. Also, it would be possible to link directly to a page with multiple filters applied.

In your WooCommerce shop page, you can use the methods that follow to construct a hierarchical navigation structure with four layers (MAKES, MODELS, YEARS, and COMPONENTSTYPE):

  1. Establish product categories
  2. Add categories to the products.
  3. Make your shop page template unique
  4. Add navigation links

These methods will allow you to develop a shop page with a hierarchical navigation structure composed up of MAKES, MODELS, YEARS, and COMPONENTSTYPE categories, enabling customers to browse the categories while looking at the appropriate merchandise at each level.
