Editing wooCommerce templates to enable a custom Shop page

[ChefsConnection]

Let’s see if I can do a better job this time.

 

I have wooCommerce set to use mysite/shop as it’s main page.  I also created a custom page called mysite/shop-index to show what I would like my shop page to actually look like.   I understand that wooCommerce is using it’s own .php template file to display the main shop page, and that there is no product-archive.php template in /themes/kleo/woocommerce/templates for me to edit.  Do I need to edit the woocommerce.php file in wp-content/plugins/woocommerce?
My question is how do I do this?  What code do I need to change in order for the  /shop page to look like the /shop-index page?

Not to be rude, but that doesn’t answer my question. When we bought this theme I was under the impression that Seventh Queen provides customer support, this is just a link to a post on another site from 3 years ago. Surely things have changed in that time.

Is there Kleo specific documentation that describes this process or are you telling me that I’m on my own?

Hello, the template in charge for the shop page is archive-product.php
https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/master/templates/archive-product.php

If we don’t override it in the main theme you can always just copy the file from woocommerce/templates into kle-child/woocommerce and edit it there.

We try to override as few files as possible for better update compatibility but any file from woocommerce templates can be copied and overriden in the child theme.

Hope it helps

Cheers
