Display a product table

You can display a product table in WooCommerce Product Table Ultimate by using a shortcode or Gutenberg block.

Displaying a product table using a shortcode

Go to the page where you’d like to display the product and enter the following shortcode:

[product_table_ultimate]

Publish or update your page. This will now display a product table to your users.

When you enter the basic shortcode like this, the plugin will use the settings you define at WooCommerce > Settings > Product Table. Click here to find out more about these settings.

Shortcode parameters

You can fine-tune your product using different shortcode parameters. Here’s a list of the available parameters and some examples of how to use them.

columns – this parameter defines what columns will be displayed in your table. Choose from sku, thumbnail, name, short-description, long-description, stock, attributes, categories, tags, price, add-to-cart, last-modified-date, reviews, weight, length, width, height, author. Separate each option with a comma.
source – define which products to display. Options include “all”, “categories”, “tags”, “taxonomies”, “callback”
callback – if you choose “callback” in the “source” parameter, enter the name of your custom query
categories – if you choose “categories” in “source” then add a new parameter listing the IDs of the categories you want to display, e.g. categories="23,25"
taxonomies – if you choose “taxonomies” in “source” then add a new parameter listing the IDs of the taxonomies you want to display, e.g. taxonomies="23,25"
tags – if you choose “tags” in “source” then add a new parameter listing the IDs of the tags you want to display, e.g. tags="23,25"
order_by – define how to order the products in the table. Choose from “id”, “sku”, “title”, “price”, “date”, “popularity”, “rating”, “menu_order”
order – either “ASC” or “DESC”
per_page – how many products to list per page
show_quantities – either “yes” or “no”
variations_display – if you have variations in your table, you can choose how to display them. Either “none”, “row”, “parent”
add_selected – either “yes” or “no” to show a checkbox against each product, allowing users to select multiple products at the same time
select_all – yes or no: shows a “select all” checkbox in the header to select every product on the page at once (used with add_selected)
add_all – yes or no: shows an “add all to cart” button that adds every visible product at once
thumb_lightbox – yes or no: clicking a product thumbnail opens the full image in a lightbox
fixed_layout – yes or no: forces a fixed table layout (table-layout: fixed), useful for keeping column widths consistent
sortable_columns – comma-separated list of columns users can click to sort: sku, name, price
filterable_columns – comma-separated list of columns users can filter by: attributes, product_cat, product_tag, or individual attribute taxonomies (e.g. pa_color)
filter_methods – comma-separated list of filter UI types: clickable (clickable terms), select (dropdown fields), search (product search box)
filter_operator – AND or OR: controls how multiple dropdown filter selections combine. AND requires products to match all selected values; OR matches any
select_filters_locations – above, below, or both: where dropdown filters appear relative to the table
ajax_variations – yes or no: loads variation data via AJAX instead of on page load, for faster initial load with many variable products
ajax_add_to_cart – yes or no: adds products to the cart without a page reload (requires WooCommerce’s AJAX add-to-cart setting enabled) taxonomies – comma-separated taxonomy term IDs to display, used when source="taxonomies"
