New in 2.0: Now 100% Compatible with SiteOrigin Page Builder. Previous versions would allow you to add the widget via. Page Builder, but would use the same data from existing sidebar Product Category Selection widgets that were already installed. You can now add the widget(s) with Page Builder and create new custom product category displays for each new installation of the widget in Page Builder.
The WooCommerce Product Categories widget that comes as a default install in WooCommerce does not allow for the display of multiple product categories widgets all with unique categories displayed. This widget solves that problem.
This WooCommerce Product Categories Selection Widget was developed especially because the standard WooCommerce Product Categories widget displays all categories with every installation. It is impossible to display ONLY the categories you want to display. The WooCommerce Product Categories Selection Widget that we built will allow you to pick and choose which product categories you want to display and allows multiple installations into your sidebar or anywhere you can use a widget showing different categories with each installation. This is especially useful if you have several categories and need to break them up.
Instructions: WooCommerce Product Categories Selection Video Tutorial
Features: The WooCommerce Product Categories Selection Widget allows:
- Multiple installations in your sidebar
- Custom category display for each installation
- +- Expand and Collapse option for display. (useful for displaying multiple categories)

Database tweaks. Prior versions, when deleting a widget left the data in the Product Categories Widget Area, where you add categories to the widgets. Now when you delete the widget, the data associated with that widget gets deleted too.
