Module Features

The module automatically hides categories that do not contain any products. This way, you can build the store’s structure in advance – prepare all categories, and customers will only see them once they are filled with assortment. This is a convenient solution, especially for stores that regularly expand their offer.

Hiding empty categories applies not only to the main store view but also to category blocks in the sidebar menu and the footer. Thanks to this, regardless of where the customer browses the offer, they see only those sections that actually contain products.

Benefits for the Online Store

With this module, your store gains a more professional look – the absence of empty categories means the customer will not encounter pages without an offer, which increases shopping comfort and positively impacts conversion. This is particularly important for stores that gradually expand their assortment or plan to introduce new collections in the future.

The solution is also suitable for stores with a complex category structure that want to maintain order without the need to manually hide empty sections. Automating the process saves time and eliminates the risk of errors resulting from oversight.

The module works correctly both in standard Prestashop templates and in modified themes. Thanks to this, you don’t have to worry about compatibility – auto-hiding empty categories will work regardless of your store’s design.

In summary, the auto-hiding empty categories for Prestashop module is a simple yet extremely practical tool that improves the store’s aesthetics, streamlines its operation, and increases customer comfort. It is the ideal solution for any merchant who values professionalism and clarity of offer.
