You can set a title for the widget, number of products to show, and reorder them.
Examples:
- To show most recent products, use All Products, Order by Date, and Order DESC.
- To show 10 random featured products, set Number of products to show for 10, then use Featured Products, and then order by Random.
Filter Products by Price
The Filter Products by Price widget allows customers to refine products by price by dragging the sliders within the widget to create a price range based on the products displayed on the page.
To use the widget, drag it to a widget area as you would any other widget. It automatically detects the minimum and maximum prices on the current page to populate the slider.This widget will only appear on shop, tag, category, and other pages that use the archive template.

Then choose an attribute to filter by and whether you want users to filter by “AND” or “OR” query types.
- AND – If a user selects two attributes, only products which match both attributes will be returned
- OR – If a user selects two attributes, products which match either attribute will be returned
