YITH WooCommerce Category Accordion 2.24.0

What the plugin does

Show product categories as accordions and improve the design and usability of your shop.

How you can benefit from it:

• show product categories and subcategories clearly and correctly to make the navigation easier for your users;
• create ad hoc widgets to let users browse products that have specific tags;
• show widgets with custom menus and allow users to quickly access pages that may include the information they are looking for (customer support, policies about shipping and returns, etc.) or promotions on specific products ("Best seller of the month," "Top rated," "On-sale products," etc.);
• customize the style, colors, and typography of each widget;
• use the shortcodes to show accordions on any page and position of your shop.

Show product categories with a modern, user-friendly solution​

The list of product categories is one of the first things users look for when visiting an e-commerce store; it is, indeed, the quickest way to figure out what kind of products you sell or in which category they might find what they are looking for, and it’s a very useful tool to easily navigate your store.

YITH WooCommerce Category Accordion allows you to show, wherever you want, a list of your product categories and, thus, improve the user experience of your e-commerce; a simple and powerful plugin that provides your users with a clear overview of the products available in your store.

Thanks to the accordions, you can show categories, subcategories, or tags and make navigation easier for users on your store.

Depending on your needs, you can show how many products are included in a category, hide empty categories, decide whether to show the menu closed or open when the page loads, and more!

6 accordion styles to configure to your liking​

The plugin includes six different accordion panels: choose the one you prefer and customize its borders, colors, and typography to achieve the style that best fits your shop design.

Configuration options of accordion panels​

In the global options, you can configure the standard behavior of all accordions by choosing, for example, whether to show only parent categories or subcategories too, how many levels of hierarchy and categories to show, whether to open accordions on hover or click and several other options.

Advanced customization options​

In each accordion panel, you will also find all the options for advanced customization: background color, border color and radius, spacing, typography, style and position of the opening and closing icons, etc. With these options, you can quickly and easily experiment and define different layouts based on where you choose to place the accordion.

Insert a menu in the accordion panel​

Use accordion panels to add custom menus to specific pages or sections of your site. A popular use case? Create pages with top-selling or top-rated products or discounted products, and use an accordion panel to add an ad-hoc menu to the Shop page. It’s an easy and effective solution for pushing your customers to visit pages that might otherwise fall by the wayside!

Show categories and tags​

When inserting a widget or shortcode to add an accordion panel to your shop, you can decide what to show: the list of categories or tags from WooCommerce (products) or categories and tags from WordPress. You can configure how to sort them, exclude specific items, show or hide the item count for each category/tag, highlight the current category, and much more
