Remove WooCommerce Action

[nosuchagency]

Hi

I want to remove this action:

add_action( ‘woocommerce_single_product_summary’, ‘sf_product_short’, 20 );

It’s in /atelier/swift-framework/core/sf-woocommerce.php:983.

How do I remove this action from my child theme’s functions.php?

I need to be able to hook into the product excerpt, and in some cases show something else than the default excerpt.

Thanks

Hi,
Please paste this code at functions.php of child theme.

remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'sf_product_short', 20 );

Thanks
Mohammad

I did this… doesn’t work. That’s why I’m asking for help. 🙂

I expect this to go away, https://db.tt/whB7FLBo, on this page https://www.memomiles.com/shop/hardcover-fotobog/

Maybe the remove_action is before the add_action?

Thanks

Have you added that line of code to your child theme’s functions.php file?

Are you shi***** me?! Did you read this part of my answer:

“I did this… doesn’t work. That’s why I’m asking for help. :-)”

Thanks!

No need to be rude, we are trying to help you.

I suggest adding your FTP details so we can see your functions file.

Hi David

I’m not rude – that’s why I added a 😉 in the message, and a “Thanks” in the end. 🙂
I’m just a bit tired of supporters trying to reply as fast as possible instead of actually reading the question, and trying to help me. When I’m writing:

“I expect this to go away, https://db.tt/whB7FLBo, on this page https://www.memomiles.com/shop/hardcover-fotobog/”

I’m trying to get you guys to tell me that my expectation is either right or wrong – not just to ignore it, and ask me if I’ve added it, when I just wrote that I did that. That’s rude! 😉

I’m a developer, and I’ve tried a lot of ways to get the remove_action to work without luck. Do you have a setup where you could try to add this to a child theme’s functions.php and see if it works? If it do, then something is wrong in my end, but if it don’t then you can debug it yourself.

Will that work?

Thanks

Using a child theme is a little different when you want to remove an action.

You will want this:

function sf_unhook_atelier_functions() {
    remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'sf_product_short', 20 );
}
add_action('init','sf_unhook_atelier_functions');

Tried that! 🙂 Did you try this yourself in a local setup and it worked?

My question is: Are you guys 100% sure this works, because then I’ll continue to try to get it to work. 🙂

And:

“I expect this to go away, https://db.tt/whB7FLBo, on this page https://www.memomiles.com/shop/hardcover-fotobog/”

I’m trying to get you guys to tell me that my expectation is either right or wrong – not just to ignore it, and ask me if I’ve added it, when I just wrote that I did that. That’s rude! ?”

The code works for me on my dev version, tried and tested before I posted.

Yes, you are correct in your thinking that the action is the right one to remove.

Add your FTP details and I’ll look at your code.

Perfect! Thanks!

Knowing that this works, I went trough my code line by line, and found that my init function did fire before your add_action, so creating another init firing later did the trick!

Thanks for keeping helping me. 🙂

Thanks
