How to Modify Products Element Query in Bricks to Output Child Products

This Pro tutorial provides the steps to limit WooCommerce products output by Bricks' Products element on single product pages to only the children of the current product.

Step 1

Let's make the product post type hierarchical.

Add the following in child theme's functions.php or a code snippets plugin:

<?php

add_filter( 'woocommerce_register_post_type_product', function ( $args ) {
    $args['hierarchical'] = true;
    $args['supports'][] = 'page-attributes';

    return $args;
} );
