Today I will show you a great tip for really simple navigation menu. This menu can be used in template which is used for Product Archive and also for product category archives.
I build it for one submenu level only.
How does it looks?
On Shop page
Only parent categories are visible. You can open the child category list by click on the icon:
On Parent Category page
On Sub Category page
How does it work?
It works with HTML tags <summary> and <details> which are the simplest toggle without .js which you can create. Fast & Furious.
Example:
<details>
<summary>Details</summary>
Something small enough to escape casual notice.
</details>Details
Something small enough to escape casual notice.
Give me the code, NOW!
Here it is. The code below basically:
- Get list of Product categories
- Check if you are on parent or child category archive
- Add links and <summary> and <details> tags
Code for taxonomy “CATEGORY”

And some CSS… You should edit the classes in the PHP code (especially the link–primary), because I am using Automatic.css.
