Hello ericbakuladavis! ^-^

Thank you for your suggestion! I had already tried it… ??

I need a solution for every time I go to create a new product… Does it have a way to add " " via code? So there will always be something written in the short description? I need it because I created customs fields, and it only shows if it has something written in the short description.

I also could not solve the problem of custom tabs… I disabled them, but I wanted a solution to organize these custom tabs.

There probably is a way to add a   via code but I don’t know how.

Maybe we can figure out how to display your custom field without the short description. How are you displaying the custom field?

Regarding the second problem, maybe you have not found the right key for your custom tab. Try this to find the tab keys in your system:

// find the tab keys on your system, then disable
  add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woo_tab_keys', 97 );
  function woo_tab_keys($tabs ) {
    foreach ($tabs as $key => $tab) {
      echo '<p>Tab key: '.$key.'</p>'.PHP_EOL;
    }
    return $tabs;
  }

Hello guys!

ericbakuladavis,
These are two of the custom fields are shown in the description (short-description.php).

<?php
$product_type = apply_filters('custom_field_product_type', get_post_meta($post->ID, '_product_type', true));
if( !empty( $product_type ) ){
  echo '<b>? Product type: </b>'.$product_type.'<br />';
}
?>
<?php
$product_condition = apply_filters('custom_field_product_condition', get_post_meta($post->ID, '_product_condition', true));
if( !empty( $product_condition ) ){
  echo '<b>? Product condition: </b>'.$product_condition.'<br />';
} ?>

I thought about create a new template for single product, but I think will not be necessary… I installed a plugin yesterday and I could set it to import many products for woocommerce at once, so I’ll just put <span style="color: #ffffff;">.</span> for all lines of my csv column for short description (not the best solution, but it will be less work). I’ll leave the topic open for if I find a better solution or someone post the solution to others with the same problem that I can get a solution.
So, thank you for helping hand, ericbakuladavis!

lorro,
This is my output:

Tab key: description
Tab key: additional_information
Tab key: reviews

No custom tab ??

I even tried to apply a filter to a custom tab, but did not work.

Anyway, I found that my theme has a bug in tabs, that occurs when I try to organize tabs when dsciption tab is empty and not being displayed. So, I just gave up using custom tab and already thought about an alternative solution. Thanks anyway! This code is very useful! xD
