The default WooCommerce archive page is useful for basic stores, but it is not always the best layout when you want customers to compare products quickly. On shop pages, category archives, attribute archives, or product listing pages, a simple grid layout can make browsing slower, especially if customers need to check prices, stock, variations, attributes, or add-to-cart options before buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A custom WooCommerce product archive page gives you more control over how products are displayed. Instead of showing products in the default shop layout, you can use a product table to display important product details in columns and help customers filter, sort, compare, and buy products faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll show you how to build a product table, customize columns, add filters and sorting, and replace WooCommerce shop, category, tag, attribute, or search archive pages with a more practical table layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why displaying a product table in your online store is important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Customer-friendly shop and archive pages have a significant effect on attracting customers and increasing online store sales. One of the best solutions for creating customized shop and archive pages is overriding their default view in WooCommerce with product tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a product table with custom columns, you can display all required information on one page to your customers. Customers can easily view and compare the attributes, price, and any other information you have imported in the meta fields for the products in the product table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, if you have various product types in your store, you can design different product tables for different categories, such as cosmetics, food, clothing, etc. So, it will be easier for customers to choose the right product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another important feature that you can add to the product tables for WooCommerce archive pages to improve the customer’s shopping experience and make the shopping process easier is the ability to add multiple products to the card at the same time with one click. With this feature, customers do not have to visit each product page to add them to their carts. You can also add quantity and variation columns to the product table so that customers can directly choose each variation and increase or decrease its quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other important features that are displayed in the product tables for WooCommerce archive pages are filtering, searching, and sorting options. If you use the WooCommerce product table plugin, you can add any type of filter like category, price, or attribute filters to the navigation bars so that customers can filter the products in the table based on the parameters they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to create product tables for WooCommerce archive pages and customize them according to your requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
