Your Shop Page is the front window of your online store — where customers browse your products.
You can easily design it to match your brand and layout preferences.
Accessing the Shop Page #
- Navigate to the shop page
- Click on Customize on the top bar
- You can change the number of columns and the number of products on the page
- Toggle visibility for product title, price, rating, “Add to Cart” button, and more
- Click Publish
Useful Customization Options #
- Product Grid Layout: It lets you control how many products appear per row or page. (Customizer → WooCommerce → Product Catalog)
- Shop Page Elements: Toggle visibility for product title, price, rating, “Add to Cart” button, and more.
- Sidebar & Filters Layout: Choose a sidebar layout (left/right/no sidebar) to display filters and categories easily.
- Typography & Colors: Under Customizer → Global → Typography / Colors, adjust fonts and palette to match your branding.
2. Adding Product Sorting Options #
Default Sorting #
WooCommerce includes a basic “Sort by” dropdown on your shop and category pages.
You can customize the sorting options under:

Typical sorting options include:
- Default sorting (custom ordering + name)
- Sort by popularity
