    Hello,

    I just bought the plugin and looks amazing so far. I created 2 categories, IDs "1" and "2", and have assigned products to the category names. When I created a new page to show items by specific category all that shows is the category name (clickable but goes right back to the same page) and description. Am I doing something wrong?

    Thank you!

    Can you please post a link to the page where it's happening? What shortcode are you using on that page?

    Interesting; now I have the "[wp_eStore_category_products:category_id:2:end]" to work fine. What exactly is "[wp_eStore_category_fancy id=2]" supposed to do? I imagined it to do the same as the first code but in a different style.

    Yes both the shortcodes display the category but [wp_eStore_category_fancy id=2] shortocode will display the category with stylish thumbnail image, category name, description in a post or page

    http://overthejames.com/girltoy/?page_id=85 is the website (excuse the content, it's a test site) and I am using the [wp_eStore_category_fancy id=2] code. It's my first attempt really and I uploaded the majority from a .csv file (to see if I could) and everything seems to be ok with it except this so far.

    If you read the shortcode description it says the following for the [wp_eStore_category_products:category_id:2:end] shortcode:

    Display all the product(s) from a particular category in a post or page (Please note that 1 is the category ID here)

    So it will display all the products in a list that are in that specified category.

    For the [wp_eStore_category_fancy id=2] shortcode:

    Display a category with stylish thumbnail image, category name, description in a post or page

    So this shortcode displays the category itself (not the products inside the category) in a fancy display. This is useful when you want to display your individual categories on an index page so visitors can browse the categories.
