How to display Woocommerce Category image?

Question

I use this code in PHP:

$idcat = 147;
$thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $idcat, 'thumbnail_id', true );
$image = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id );
echo '<img src="'.$image.'" alt="" width="762" height="365" />';

Where 147 is the current ID manually set, but i need to current id in other categories

Any suggest?

Solution 1

To display the category image for the currently displayed category in archive-product.php, use the current category term_id when is_product_category() is true:

// verify that this is a product category page
if ( is_product_category() ){
    global $wp_query;

    // get the query object
    $cat = $wp_query->get_queried_object();

    // get the thumbnail id using the queried category term_id
    $thumbnail_id = get_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true ); 

    // get the image URL
    $image = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id ); 

    // print the IMG HTML
    echo "<img src='{$image}' alt='' width='762' height='365' />";
}

Solution 2

get_woocommerce_term_meta is depricated since Woo 3.6.0.

so change

$thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta($value->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );

into: ($value->term_id should be woo category id)

get_term_meta($value->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true)

see docs for details: https://docs.woocommerce.com/wc-apidocs/function-get_woocommerce_term_meta.html

Solution 3

From the WooCommerce page:

// WooCommerce – display category image on category archive

add_action( 'woocommerce_archive_description', 'woocommerce_category_image', 2 );
function woocommerce_category_image() {
    if ( is_product_category() ){
      global $wp_query;
      $cat = $wp_query->get_queried_object();
      $thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $cat->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );
      $image = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id );
      if ( $image ) {
          echo '<img src="' . $image . '" alt="" />';
      }
  }
}

You may also used foreach loop for display category image and etc from parent category given by parent id.

for example, i am giving 74 id of parent category, then i will display the image from child category and its slug also.

**<?php
$catTerms = get_terms('product_cat', array('hide_empty' => 0, 'orderby' => 'ASC', 'child_of'=>'74'));
foreach($catTerms as $catTerm) : ?>
<?php $thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $catTerm->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true ); 

// get the image URL
$image = wp_get_attachment_url( $thumbnail_id );  ?>
<li><img src="<?php echo $image; ?>" width="152" height="245"/><span><?php echo $catTerm->name; ?></span></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>** 

Solution 5

To prevent full size category images slowing page down, you can use smaller images with wp_get_attachment_image_src():

<?php 

$thumbnail_id = get_woocommerce_term_meta( $term->term_id, 'thumbnail_id', true );

// get the medium-sized image url
$image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $thumbnail_id, 'medium' );

// Output in img tag
echo '<img src="' . $image[0] . '" alt="" />'; 

// Or as a background for a div
echo '<div class="image" style="background-image: url("' . $image[0] .'")"></div>';

?>

THanks you for your answer, but not work proprly, because "is_category" in woocommerce template is "is_product_category" and "get_query_var('cat')" -> "cat"? Any suggest? Im using woocommerce templates to override default woocommerce. And im editing the product-archive.php template.

[doublesharp]

Do you mean archive-product.php? This is the template that is used for the shop homepage as well as tag archives, for example /product-tag/TAG-NAME. If that is the case, I assume you are trying to get the category image for each product in the loop? Or are you viewing a single product category and need to display the image for that one category, for example /product-category/CATEGORY?

[MrRoman]

Yes is it /product-category/CATEGORY, when i create a new category, i can upload a image from woocommerce admin. P. D.: in Spanish (my native language :)) is /categoria-producto/categoria

[doublesharp]

I'm in Chile now, but my Spanish is terrible. The file should be the same even with your language set to es_ES, so you want to use is_product_category() for the if statement and the category from the term_id since it is part of the taxonomy - see the edits to my answer.

While this code may answer the question, providing information on how and why it solves the problem improves its long-term value.

7 years wasn't such a bad run :)

This code is deprecated since Woocommerce 3.6 and $term is not defined in this example

Neat. get_woocommerce_term_meta is deprecated, use get_term_meta instead.
