    Hello,
    I was wondering if is possible to add a short description on the checkout page. I have tried a lot of thigns and read different forums, but the page is not taking the information…
    This was my last try:
    <?php echo apply_filters( ‘woocommerce_cart_item_price’, WC()->cart->get_product_price( $_product ), $cart_item, $cart_item_key ) ; ?>

    Thank you for your help

    You could edit the form-checkout.php template.

    https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/blob/5893875b0c03dda7b2d448d1a904ccfad3cdae3f/templates/checkout/form-checkout.php

    * This template can be overridden by copying it to yourtheme/woocommerce/checkout/form-checkout.php.

    Then just add the desired text.

    <div class="col2-set" id="customer_details">
			<div class="col-1">
<p>Here is a short description.</p>
				<?php do_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_billing' ); ?>
			</div>

    Thanks but this is not what I am searching for. I know how to edit templates and for this I need to edit review-order.php. But I dont want to add any short description manually – I want wordpress to grab automatically the short description that is set for the respective product. Any idea?

    Your code would go around here somewhere https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/blob/master/templates/checkout/review-order.php#L47

    echo $_product->post-> post_excerpt;

    Geat, that works! Thank you so much!
    Would it be possible to implement this into functions.php too? I always prefer this instead of editing templates. Thank you!

    There is no action fired per item so no.

    One more question: How can I add the excerpt to order-details-item.php. Somehow echo $_product->post-> post_excerpt; doesnt work here..

    Hi Anikoni,

    I am also looking to have short description on the checkout page and passing to paypal.

    How did this end up for you, were you able to resolve all issues?

    I am wanting this to work so as not to have updates overwrite the changes, what is the best way for this?
