Listing subcategories (Modern)
Note: This element and this article are work in progress.
This navigation automatically displays the subcategories of the current categories in small tiles. Name and image are based on the corresponding information in the category management of Shopware.
This CMS extension is made up of various "components":
The "Listing subcategories (Modern)" CMS extension is a variant of the "Listing subcategories" theme or CMS extension.
While the "Listing subcategories" extension is based on the look of our ThemeWare® extension for Shopware 5, this "Modern" variant has its own modern look, which is based on the modern teasers from ThemeWare®.
Due to this different look, this CMS extension requires a different configuration and only shares the basic colour configuration (background and border colour of the tiles) with the theme extension (or theme configuration).
Beta: Please note that this element is in a testing phase, feel free to test it.
Note: The CMS extension "Listing subcategories" was developed for CMS pages of the type "Lising page", i.e. pages with (product) listings.
Note: Subcategories are only available for the main category in Shopware 6.
Important: This element is only available in the ThemeWare® Pro Edition.
