I'm working on a test draft for a simple eCommerce site, and it's important to remove the ability to open single product pages. In other words, we only want customers to see the listings of products at the Category level. From the category level, the customers should only be able to add to cart (with no possibility to open the product details page).
I've been researching this for a few hours, and the need for this is very common among WooCommerce merchants. There even seems to be a universally accepted solution (see here: https://businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-disable-link-to-product-loop/ ) however, it does not seem to work at all for me.
The easiest way i can think is to turn off the links manually using css. See screenshot : http://prntscr.com/nbdf0k .
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel (All custom css provided is tested in the Live Browser so it will work as intended . If you cant see any changes make sure there is no red cross in the Custom CSS Box as that syntax error would cause all css below it to not show up on the Frontend):
Hello great folks at Salient.

I also tried this approach, suggested to a Salient user with the same issue, but it does not seem to work either: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46875324/unable-to-remove-single-product-pages-from-woocommerce
Are you able to help me disable the function of linking to specific product pages from the Category overview?

Hey Again,
