Hi there,
I’m trying to make woocommerce product archive pages more effective in Kadence.

At present, if the product category page has subcategories (as well as products of course), the subcategory card looks exactly the same as a product card.
This is bad UX, as it’s hard to see that there are subcategories (image 1).

So after scratching my head a lot, I’m trying to solve this by adding a Content Section Element on every product category page, which would only show the subcategories of the given category (like in image 2 I linked). And after this, the product archive template would just show all the product.

But this is where I ran into a problem.

I need to dynamically get, use, and style the subcategories of a given category page.

I am confident that I could do this with Kadence by combining Elements, Query, or some other way. Can you tell me how please? I know this is a hard question, so I would be grateful for a detailed response.

Thanks
Tom
