Product List Sidebar for WooCommerce
Product List Sidebar for WooCommerce
Description
Product List Sidebar for WooCommerce adds a configurable slide-out product catalog to WooCommerce storefronts. It displays product categories, product names, prices, and WooCommerce-aware purchase links inside a compact drawer that can be opened from a floating trigger.
The catalog loads on demand through WordPress AJAX and is cached with WordPress transients. Cache entries are scoped by locale, currency, tax display context, user role, and catalog settings to avoid serving one store context in another.
Features include:
- Floating catalog drawer trigger.
- On-demand product catalog loading.
- Product/category search inside the drawer.
- WooCommerce add-to-cart links using product APIs.
- Distinct AJAX add-to-cart and product-page action states.
- Category and URL path exclusions.
- Configurable colors, typography, labels, per-category product limit, cache duration, and mobile behavior.
This plugin requires WooCommerce.
Clear the plugin cache after major catalog, pricing, or visibility changes if needed.
Faq
Yes. The plugin depends on WooCommerce product, category, price, and add-to-cart APIs.
Variable and other non-simple products link through WooCommerce’s product add-to-cart URL API. Products that cannot be added directly will send shoppers to the product page.
WooCommerce only supports direct AJAX add-to-cart for products that can be purchased immediately, such as most simple in-stock products. Products that require choices or special handling, such as variable, grouped, external, out-of-stock, or option-driven products, use a product-page action instead.
Yes. Add one relative path per line in WooCommerce > Product Sidebar. Wildcards are supported, for example /landing-page/ or /b2b/*.
No. The plugin stores administrator-defined settings and transient cache entries for generated catalog markup.
