Beskrywing
This add-on for iThemes Exchange adds the ability to create multiple loops for the products (store) page, including grid/list view selection, pagination, data selections and order by functionality. It allows you to create product category pages, pages per product type etc.
To create a new store page, in the wp-dashboard go to pages, “add new” (or edit an existing page) and tick the box to enable the custom loop. Do not use the Exchange store shortcode on that page.
Add Grid / List View
Set a default view, either List view, or Grid view. Define how many columns you want in a grid, and how much padding between the items. Define at which viewport width a Grid view should transform in List view.
Add Pagination
Set the number of products per page, and the Previous / Next Page text.
Data Selections
Select one, more, or all Categories, or Product Types.
Sort Order
Set a default Sort order for the products. Order by date, price, name, or use the Exchange default.
Frontend Options
Enable or disable a grid/list button for the store, so the user can dynamically change the view. Enable or disable a “order by” dropdown, so the user can change the order in which products are displayed.
New fields to add content before or after the loop
This allows you to use a wysiwyg editor to add content before or after the custom loop. Add (for instance) introduction text for your categories or downloads, a slideshow, a video, anything you can thinks of. And at the bottom of your loop, add a newsletter subscription form, social / share and whatever else you wish to add.

- You can now choose the text (if any) to display in front of the sort order dropdown
- Added grid/list option “none” to not affect an existing loop at all, so no need to choose either grid or list. It will default to the Exchange default. Note that this will disable the grid/list selections.
- None relevant options are “greyed out” based on selections made.
Vertalings
Translators, you are invited to translate the plugin, send the translated files over, and I will add your translation to the plugin, with an attribution.
It is common issue with plugin translations that (custom) translations will be overwritten on plugin update. To prevent this, if you have a custom translation, or customised an existing translation, copy the relevant translation (.mo) file to wp-content/languages/plugins/exchange-addon-custom-loop/ The translation file should be named “rvw-exchange-addon-custom-loop-{locale}” where {locale} is your language locale, e.g. de_DE or nl_NL.
Screenshots
Installation
- Upload the folder ‘exchange-addon-custom-loop’ to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
- Activate ‘iThemes Exchange – Custom Loop Add-on’ through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Open the ‘Addons’ screen through the ‘Exchange’ menu in WordPress
-
If Custom Loop is not enabled, click Enable beside the ‘Custom Loop’ entry in the Addons listing
-
Once enabled, the standard WordPress “Add Page” (or when editing an existing page) will have an extra option to enable the custom loop. Upon ticking that option, all custom loop options will become visible and editable. For an overview of all options, see the screenshots section.
