    Hi there,

    Hope you are doing well.

    We are trying to create a mega menu that displays our product categories so that whenever we add a new category, it automatically appears in the menu. We want it to look like a vertical list, just like the one in the hamburger menu.

    However, in Elementor, when we select “Product Categories”, instead of showing a vertical list, it displays all categories side-by-side in a single line.

    We also tried using the shortcode [product_categories parent="0"], but it shows them in a single line as well.

    Could you help us figure out how to create an automatically updating list that displays stacked, just like the hamburger menu?

    Best regards,

    Hello @Jennifer,

    You can utilize the default WordPress Product Categories widget in your content, which will display a list of all available product categories. If this widget is not visible in your Elementor panel, please ensure it is enabled by navigating to your Dashboard -> Elementor -> Settings -> Elements Manager.

    Best regards,
