Woocommerce not using the right templates [duplicate]

This question already has answers here: Changes on archive-product.php doesn't work (7 answers) Woocommerce archive-product.php overwrite not working with underscores.me theme (1 answer) Overriding template via the theme does not work in Woocommerce (1 answer) Override Woocommerce Elements (3 answers) Closed 19 hours ago. I'm having some template hierarchy issues trying to add woocommerce to a custom theme I made for a client. The site isn't using the templates it should be. The shop page the plugin generates is using 'page.php' instead of 'archive-product.php' and products are using 'single.php' instead of 'single-product.php'. I created a folder called woocommerce in my theme folder and copied those two WC template files over, but they're not being used. I used a function to force using the right templates, which worked but now the products don't appear on the shop page like they did when the wrong templates were being used. I've never worked with WC before, so is there something basic I've missed? Things I've tried: switching to a default theme turning off all plugins double checking the folder structure (the files are in /mytheme/woocommerce/) double checking the products are published adding a debug line to the template echo Products found! which echoes that they are being found (just not showing) checked the console for CSS or JS Issues confirmed that the correct page is assigned as the Shop Page

It's a custom theme, so first of all you should check if WooCommerce support is declared in the functions.php. Woocommerce Integration with theme can be done using declaration of support in the theme. Php code: function wpse319485_add_woocommerce_support() { add_theme_support( 'woocommerce' ); } add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'wpse319485_add_woocommerce_support' ); link:https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/wiki/Declaring-WooCommerce-support-in-themes

You’ll be in good company
