# How to Add Load More Button in WooCommerce Products in WordPress?

## Key Takeaways

- Nexter Blocks includes a Product Listing block that allows users to add a load more button to product listings.
- Users can customize the load more button text and loading text in the Extra Options tab of the Product Listing block.
- To display a load more button, users must set the Maximum Posts Display field lower than the total number of products.

If you have a large number of products, displaying them all on a single page can cause slow page load times, which can lead to a poor user experience. By adding a load more button to your product pages, you can improve the user experience and reduce the load on your server.

With the Product Listing block from the Nexter Blocks Editor, you can easily add a load more button to your product listing.

To do this, make sure you’ve added some products to your WooCommerce store, then follow the steps - 

1. Add the Product Listing block on the page or template, then select the appropriate listing type, style and layout.

> *Note: Load More is not available in the ****Carousel**** layout.*

2. Then go to the **Extra Options** tab and select **Load More** from the **Load More Options **dropdown.

In the **Post View OnClick / OnScroll **field, you can set how many products will load at once on the button click.

From the **Button Text** field, you can change the text on the button, while the **Loading Text** field allows you to change the text that appears when more products are being loaded. You can also modify the text that appears when all products are loaded by using the **All Posts Loaded Text** field.

3. Now go to the **Query** tab, and set the maximum number of products to be displayed on a page in the **Maximum Posts Display **field.

Depending on the number of products you have and the number set in the **Maximum Posts Display** field, you’ll see a load more button on your product listing.

> *Note: In order to show load more button, you must set a lower number in the ****Maximum Posts Display**** field than the total number of products.*

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What should I do if the Load More button is not appearing?**
A: If the Load More button isn't showing, check the Maximum Posts Display setting. You need to set a lower number here than your total product count for the button to appear. This ensures that not all products are displayed at once, allowing the Load More functionality to work effectively.

**Q: Can I use the Load More button with any layout in the Product Listing block?**
A: The Load More button is not available in the Carousel layout of the Product Listing block. If you want to implement this feature, choose a different layout that supports it. This limitation is important to consider when designing your product display.

**Q: What is the best way to configure the Load More button for a large product catalog?**
A: For a large product catalog, set the Maximum Posts Display to a number that balances user experience and performance. A common practice is to display around 12-20 products initially, allowing users to load more without overwhelming them. This keeps the page responsive and improves load times.
