Remove Product Short Description

[huntingensemble]

Hi Guys,

I would like to remove the product short description on the single product page.
Found this link (by WooCommerce). See here
Link: https://support.woothemes.com/hc/en-us/articles/202814378-How-to-remove-the-Product-Description-from-the-single-product-page-in-WooCommerce

And should be placed within function.php in theme folder. Tried it but unfortunately with no effect, am I doing something wrong? Other tips?

Thanks!

Hi

We have changed the output of the single product, the files are in atelier/woocommerce

How come you are trying to remove the short description? Why don’t you just not add any content to it?

Ok then edit the content-single-product.php file in atelier/woocommerce

Ok Thanks Kyle,

Can you point me in the right direction? If I for example replace rule 164:
do_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary' );

With the code from Woocommerce, the short description is gone but the add to cart section/select your size as well.

Any thoughts?

Thanks again,
Joost

Hi,

You should get that code and place it inside the functions.php of the child theme.

you can’t remove that do_action or almost everything in the single product page will not work.

just notice that the code you have is to remove the description tab and not the product short description.

Try in the Woocommerce support site, they are in better position to help you out with this.

Hi Guys,

I’ve looked in to it and if I add:

remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_add_to_cart', 30 ); at functions.php from child theme it removes the cart, same goes for woocommerce_template_single_meta to remove meta.

But woocommerce_template_single_excerpt to remove the excerpt which is product short description (see here).

It doesn’t work. Also tried it in parent functions.php but with no luck.

follow my advice above, check for they current support topics, that probably was asked before.

Hi,

Can you provide a link to a product of yours and an annotated screenshot showing what you want to remove?

Thanks.

Hi,

Ok I think I follow, so to remove the short description, please add this CSS:

.woocommerce div.product .product-short {
  margin-bottom: 30px;
  display: none;
}

Thanks,
David.
