    My Woocommerce shop is on /menu and is a regular WP page using my theme’s (Divi) modules to create the shop, not using the WC shop template.

    How do I set up the plugin to work on a page that isn’t a Woocommerce page, but still has the products listed on it?

    Would like to have the search and filter fields across the top and the page below update with the results.

    Here is the page: http://goo.gl/1dKJRb

    If you are not using the WooCommerce ‘shop’ as such, you must use one of the other display methods, in your case either ‘As an Archive’ or Shortcode. Search for Divi on this forum.

    I spent the last two hours going through support searching through Divi articles and I’m still pretty confused on how to make things work. Is there documentation or a thread where someone was successful in making it work with the Divi theme?

    On this page: http://goo.gl/1dKJRb

    There is the gray bar at the top. I’m not sure what the best way to do this, but I made three search filters in that grey bar 1) search meals 2) categories 3) filter items (tags)

    All three have the post type “Products” selected, the display results method is “as an archive”, and the custom template set as “search-results.php”

    – This field seems to work, I think I need to customize the search-results.php. Has another Divi user been successful with doing this?
    – The categories #2 only pulls in uncategorized, but I have a category that should be there.
    – The placeholder for #3, “filter items” is not showing (it’s supposed to pull tags here and I have two tags created)

    Appreciate the help. 🙂

    Hi April

    I would need to review with you what you have and what you need. This is best done by video or audio conference on Skype. Is this possible for you, and if it is, what timezone are you in? I am in the UK and it is 19:47 right now.

    We would have to meet up tomorrow or later, not tonight as I am dog tired.

    Hey Trevor!

    I am in EST (Tampa, FL) and can get on Skype anytime. I am available today between 12EST and 6EST so that’s 5PM to 11PM UK time… or we can catch up tomorrow anytime.

    Sorry I’m delayed in responding. For whatever reason, I never get the notification emails that you have responded. I’ll try to check in more often!

    OK, so we appear to have gotten that working, where you now need to refine your template to get the display right? Can I close this thread?
