Product Category helps you display WooCommerce product categories in a clean, customizable, and conversion-friendly way. Instead of sending visitors through a plain category list, you can build stylish category sections that guide shoppers toward the products they want faster.
Use it on landing pages, shop pages, homepages, blog posts, sidebars, and custom layouts. Whether you prefer the Block Editor, Elementor, SiteOrigin, or a simple shortcode, Product Category gives you a practical way to showcase selected categories with layout, typography, image, color, and pagination controls.
The plugin is built for store owners, designers, and developers who want more control over how WooCommerce categories appear without writing custom templates.
Compatible with:
<ul>
<li>Shortcode for classic pages, posts, and custom content areas.</li>
<li>Block Editor with a dedicated Gutenberg product category block.</li>
<li>SiteOrigin Editor with a product category widget.</li>

StratiSilo transforms the default WooCommerce product category page — which shows nothing but a product grid — into a structured SEO content hub that search engines reward and customers love.
Most WooCommerce stores are leaving enormous organic traffic unrealized because their category pages are thin, product-only grids. StratiSilo fixes this by giving every category page the full silo content structure that leading SEO authorities recommend.
<h3>What StratiSilo Does</h3>
Dual Description Editors 
Add rich editorial content both above and below the product grid on every category page. The top description captures user intent, the bottom section provides keyword depth — the exact structure Google rewards with higher rankings.
Subcategory Cards 
Automatically displays child categories as visual cards between the first description and the product grid. Configurable column count, fully responsive. Turns parent category pages into genuine hub pages that link contextually to all subtopics.
Products Section Heading 
Add a custom H2 heading and intro paragraph above your product grid on each category page. Helps users understand what they are browsing and provides additional keyword context for search engines.
Load More Button 
Replace pagination with a smooth Load More button that loads additional products inline without a page refresh. Default pagination is automatically hidden. Works correctly across all supported themes.
Breadcrumb Shop Removal 
Optionally remove the Shop link from breadcrumbs on both category pages and single product pages. Breadcrumb shows: Home / Category instead of Home / Shop / Category.
Shortcode Support 
Use shortcodes for manual placement in any theme template: [stratisilo_first_desc], [stratisilo_subcategories], [stratisilo_second_desc]
<h3>Silo Architecture Layout</h3>
Every StratiSilo category page follows this SEO-optimal structure:
<ol>
<li>First description / category description (above products)</li>
<li>Subcategory cards</li>
<li>Products section heading and intro</li>
<li>All products with Load More</li>
<li>Second description (below products)</li>
</ol>
This mirrors the physical silo model recommended by leading SEO authorities, where a pillar page covers a broad topic and links contextually to narrower subtopics.
<h3>Theme Compatibility</h3>
StratiSilo is tested and works with default versions of: Kadence, Astra, OceanWP, GeneratePress, and Storefront. Most other WooCommerce-compatible themes are also supported. Heavily customized themes or child themes with modified WooCommerce templates may require additional configuration.
