How to output link to category from WP_Query loop of woocommerce products?

patrick

In WP_Query which outputs featured products. For each product, I want to link to the category of that product, how to achieve

<?php
  $args = array(
    'post_type' => 'product',
    'tax_query' => array(
      array(
        'taxonomy' => 'product_visibility',
        'field'    => 'name',
        'terms'    => 'featured',
        'operator' => 'IN'
      ),
    ),
    'posts_per_page' => 8
  );
  $loop = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>

<ul class="product-list">

  <?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); global $product; ?>
  <li class="product-list__item">

    <a href="<?php echo get_permalink( $loop->post->ID ) ?>"
      <?php the_title(); ?>
    </a>

    Link to the product category here!

Go with get_the_term_list() this will give you an output a comma-separated list of links to product categories:

<?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
    <li class="product-list__item">
        <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">
            <?php the_title(); ?>
        </a>

        <?php echo get_the_term_list( get_the_ID(), 'product_cat', '', ', ' ); ?>
    </li>
<?php endwhile; ?>

When you are in 'the loop' (i.e. between $loop->the_post(); and endwhile) you don't need to pass an ID to get_permalink(), simply use the_permalink().
