title: How do I display a "category products drop down in a wordpress page" in Woocommerce 2.5.2
body: <p>I would like to display a drop down menu for products in a category.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;select&gt;
    &lt;option value="CODE HERE"&gt;Volvo&lt;/option&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So according to Wordpress coding..</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  
  // The Query
  $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
  
  // The Loop
  if ( $the_query-&gt;have_posts() ) {
      echo '&lt;ul&gt;';
      while ( $the_query-&gt;have_posts() ) {
          $the_query-&gt;the_post();
          echo '&lt;li&gt;' . get_the_title() . '&lt;/li&gt;';
      }
      echo '&lt;/ul&gt;';
  } else {
      // no posts found
  }
  /* Restore original Post Data */
  wp_reset_postdata();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Okay so I investigated further and I am looking to do a single page template according to <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/page-templates/" rel="nofollow">https://developer.wordpress.org</a> I am using a child theme for Storefront which is called NOVA WP. </p>
  
  <p>To make this "single page template"  I copied page.php and renamed it to <code>page-buildit.php</code></p>
  
  <p>This is <a href="http://www.ofixcomp.com/buildit/" rel="nofollow">Mypage</a> in which I actually editing the code. I did copy the code but it turns out blank</p>
  
  <p>found this: <a href="http://www.remicorson.com/woocommerce-create-a-shortcode-to-display-product-categories/" rel="nofollow">WooCommerce: Create a shortcode to display product categories</a>
  but my undestanding is we cant do this anymore with the new wordpress version.</p>
