Genesis Connect for WooCommerce

This plugin replaces WooCommerce’s built-in shop templates with its own Genesis-ready versions, specifically the single-product.php, archive-product.php and taxonomy.php templates needed to display the single product page, the main shop page, and Product Category and Product Tag archive pages.

To allow easy customization of these templates, and ensure that you do not lose your customizations when the plugin is updated, you can place your own copies of these templates in your child theme’s ‘woocommerce’ folder and customize these copies as much as you like. You can also create your own taxonomy-{taxonomy}.php and taxonomy-{taxonomy}-{term}.php templates in the same location and this plugin will find them and use them to display your shop’s Product Category and Product Tag archives. See the Template Hierarchy to learn more about naming requirements for taxonomy templates.

Additionally, the plugin makes Genesis Simple Sidebars and Genesis Simple Menus compatible with WooCommerce.

This version is compatible with WooCommerce 3.3+

Technical Info

For more technically minded users, this is what the plugin does:

• Unhooks the WooCommerce template loader function
• Adds its own template loader function to control the templates used by the single product, archive product and Product Category and Product Tag (taxonomy) archive pages.
• Adds Genesis Layouts and SEO support to the WooCommerce Product custom post type
• Provides three Genesis-ready templates to display the shop pages, located in the plugin’s templates folder:
  • single-product.php
  • archive-product.php
  • taxonomy.php
  • unhook WooCommerce’s built-in breadcrumbs
  • unhook the Genesis Loop and replace it with the relevant WooCommerce shop loop
  • remove WooCommerce’s #container and #content divs, which are not required or wanted by Genesis

  More about breadcrumbs

  By default, the Genesis breadcrumbs do not provide the same breadcrumb structure as those built-in to WooCommerce. Genesis Connect for WooCommerce modifies the normal Genesis Breadcrumbs output on shop pages to mimic the structure of those built-in to WooCommerce.

  Note that the templates provided in this plugin automatically unhook WooCommerce’s built-in breadcrumbs via this code in each template:
  remove_action( ‘woocommerce_before_main_content’, ‘woocommerce_breadcrumb’, 20 );

  Filters

  This plugin provides some filters which may be useful for developers.

  genesiswooc_custom_query
  

  Located in gencwooc_single_product_loop() in templates/single-product.php.
  The filter callback function should return a query object or false.

  gencwooc_product_archive_crumb
