To create a working custom product query in WooCommerce, you can use the WP_Query class in WordPress to retrieve products based on specific criteria. Here's a simple example of how you can create a custom product query in WooCommerce:

  1. Open your theme's functions.php file or create a custom plugin to add the following code:
 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
14

23
add_shortcode( 'custom_product_query', 'custom_product_query_shortcode' );

function custom_product_query_shortcode() {
    $args = array(
        'post_type' => 'product',
        'posts_per_page' => -1, // Retrieve all products
        'orderby' => 'date',
        'order' => 'DESC',
    );

    $query = new WP_Query( $args );

    if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
        while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
            $query->the_post();
            wc_get_template_part( 'content', 'product' );
        }
    } else {
        echo 'No products found.';
    }

    wp_reset_postdata();
}


  1. This code creates a shortcode [custom_product_query] that retrieves all products and displays them on the frontend using WooCommerce templates. You can customize the query arguments based on your specific needs, such as filtering products by category, tag, or custom meta fields.
  2. To display the custom product query on a page or post, simply add the shortcode [custom_product_query] in the WordPress editor where you want the products to appear.
  3. Save the changes and visit the page to see the custom product query in action.


With this custom product query, you can retrieve and display products from your WooCommerce store based on your desired criteria, providing a more tailored shopping experience for your customers.
