YITH WooCommerce Category Accordion

Stores with many products often end up with a long, crowded list of categories. Shoppers have to scan it line by line, and the sidebar can take over the page. This plugin groups categories and subcategories into accordion panels that open and close, so visitors see only the branches they care about.

You choose which categories appear, how many hierarchy levels show, and whether panels open on hover or on click. Panels can also hold custom menus, tags or WordPress categories. With a widget and a shortcode, you can place the accordion in a sidebar, a footer or on any page, and match its look to your store design.

Features

• Collapsible category panels: Product categories and subcategories appear as accordion panels that expand and collapse, which reduces clutter and gives shoppers an easy way to move through the catalog.
• Six accordion styles: Pick from six styles and adjust borders, colors, typography, icons and more so the accordion fits the branding and design of your store.
• Global and per-panel options: Control which categories show, whether menus open on hover or click, how many hierarchy levels display, and whether product counts appear next to each category.
• Custom menus in panels: Add custom menus inside accordion panels to point shoppers to pages such as best sellers, top-rated items, discount offers or shipping policies.
• Categories and tags: Display WooCommerce and WordPress categories or tags, with sorting, exclusion and highlighting options to match the structure of your store.
• Category images and icons: Include category images or icons inside the panels to give the browsing menu a more visual look.
• Widget and shortcode placement: Insert the accordion with a widget or a shortcode in sidebars, footers or any page, so layout decisions stay in your hands.
• Automatic hiding of empty categories: Empty categories can be hidden automatically, so shoppers do not click into sections that contain no products.
