Today I had a client ask me to display a product’s short description beneath its name on his store’s product grid page. It’s not the most attractive thing in terms of design, but the client was insistent on it.
Simply Tweak The Functions.php File
Thanks to a post I found on Github by om4james it was a lot easier to do than I thought. You just have to drop the following code into your functions.php
file (make sure to create a child theme first).
[php]
function woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title_short_description() {
global $product;
if ( ! $product->get_short_description() ) return;
?>
<div itemprop=”description”>
<?php echo apply_filters( ‘woocommerce_short_description’, $product->get_short_description() ) ?>
</div>
<?php
}
add_action(‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title’, ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title_short_description’, 5);
[/php]
