    I am still learning about taxonomies and WooCommerce; however I understand that there's been a change in Woo 3 in how featured products args are set up. What I don't understand is how/where to make my Genesis themes (in this case, Wellness Pro) compatible with these changes so that I can use the theme for ecommerce and display featured products. Right now they do not appear.

    (Development site is http://cherdev.rotemdesignstudio.com)

    Thank you!

    You shouldn't have to modify Genesis at all. You would use the featured product shortcode to display featured products on a page and the featured product widget if you want to display or link to them in a sidebar. https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/

    Thanks, Victor.

    I should have specified that what I need to do is insert a woocommerce product carousel into a front page widget. If it is not working, does that mean it's the plugin that needs updating? Edit: I also entered the short code per the video and only the code itself appears. There must be step I am missing.

    OK! I needed the new Classic Text Widget. I thought adding remove_filter('widget_text_content', 'wpautop'); was supposed to help.
    All good now!

    I published the Classic text widget plugin to the repo. WordPress text widgets by default won't execute shortcodes. You have to turn that functionality on with a filter. Christina and I turned the functionality on by default in our plugin.
