Hide Categories On Shop Page

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 97% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I can see there are 2 people they told the plugin isn’t working. But they are wrong. It’s working properly. If you want to work with this plugin then you have to go to woocommerce >> setting >> product >> Hide Categories On Shop Page and then in this box first type eg : (prnt.sc/Y-vk69VlUXkD) then copy your category slug and pest in the box. Save changes and clear your site cache. And your age good to go. A very good plugin for removing categories on a single product page. Hope the above instruction will help new users. Thanks

   Not only doesn’t this plugin work right. It throws PHP warnings and fills the error log. At this point, this plugin hasn’t been updated in over a year.

   It was able to hide unwanted categories from all widgets of a WooCommerce site, where even 3rd party code snippets failed. Very good.

   Exactly what I was looking for. Hides a seasonal category (christmas) from the shop page. Thank you for developing this.

   I have been searching for so long for a plugin or a code that will help me hide categories from my shop page and now I finally found it! I am not a programmer, so I depend on plugins to help me with the coding. I am SO GLAD you made this plugin! It works!
