Hello,

Theme options > General > Enable Old Widgets Panel > On.
Categories inherit sidebar from the Shop page. Appearance > Widgets > Shop sidebar area

You provided URL of category without products, so most of widgets can’t be displayed there.
If you do not use an additional plugin that affects sidebars, categories show content of Shop sidebar area. If you have a lot of products in category, you will see all widgets from the Shop sidebar area.

Can you recommend me a suitable plugin with your theme to add extra sidebar for categories?

1/ Provide temporary wp-admin access, so we can take a closer look.
2/ Sorry, but we did not test such plugins with our theme, so can’t give recommendations.

Hello,

This is something with the WooCommerce because filter by attributes does not display on that product category even with the default Storefront theme https://gyazo.com/a78bfc3353e0f944b5bc7fd5074ede6a
So, contact WooCommerce support https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/

To implement different sidebars on the categories pages you may try https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-sidebars/
