Get Woocommerce Category Thumbnails

1 Views

I have a custom template for a woocommerce category page to only display the categories. I have got the system to get a list of the child categories (by using get_term_children($id, 'product_cat') and get_term_by(...)), but it only returns objects containing all the required information, except the thumbnail data. Does anyone know how I can get the thumbnail for the term?

  1. Sorted it, here’s the code I used:

    $thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );
$image = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id );

  2. If the get_woocommerce_term_meta() function does not work for you then you can try the get_term_meta()function instead.

    You can get the WooCommerce product category thumbnail with the following code-

    <?php
$thumbnail_id = get_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );
$image_url = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id ); // This variable is returing the product category thumbnail image URL.

  3. <?php
$thumbnail_id = get_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );
$image_url    = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id ); // This variable is returing the product category thumbnail image URL.

    Notice: get_woocommerce_term_meta is deprecated

  4. Had a similar setup but when I used what you did I didnt actually get the thumbnail file I got the full image file so instead I used this: wp_get_attachment_thumb_url so that my output url would be “../my-images”/image-150×150.jpg” and actually got it to pull the thumbnail image, just incase anyone runs into a similar situation..
