WP Bakery woocommerce show product subcategory (FREE) - wordpress

Question

I wanted to share this work with you since I did not find any solution on the internet, so I had to build mine.
The problem was that the client wanted to show the subcategories within the main category using a shortcode. Only the name of the subcategories, without thumbnail or number of products.

Answer 1

So create a file called "products-subcategory.php" in plugins/bezel-addons/vc/shortcodes/.
And I incorporated it in plugins/bezel-addons/vc/shortcodes.php
In my case my template is the Bezzel https://themeforest.net/item/bezel-creative-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/20014332
But I think you can implement it in anyone using Visual Composer or WP Bakery.
products-subcategory.php.
<?php
