Excerpts DONT WORK for Short description of Woocommerce

Hi @joannapl,

I am sorry, I don’t think I can understand you.

Would you mind sharing your live site URL for us to check?

Kind regards,
Herman ??

If we have WooCommerce installed, we have 2 search engines on the website.
One product (woocommerce) and the other general (wordpress).

When searching for an issue in a wordpress search engine, pages, entries and product tags are shown.
Entries, pages display well. Photo, title and supporting text eg from entry – first 25 words (Excerpt).
However, this is not the case in the product.
If in the product I have to add a simple description, a short description – it is displayed in the search results.
However, it is no longer reduced to 25 words, but all 500 words are displayed.

@bsfherman
If I turn off showing short description on the store’s website, they will not be shortened to 25 words.
The entire text of 500 words is displayed – this is the short description for a given product.
This short description also does not shorten in the search results.

While browsing the theme files, I found the code responsible for displaying the short description for the store’s website (I haven’t found it for the search engine page).

if ( ! function_exists( 'astra_woo_shop_product_short_description' ) ) :
	/**
	 * Product short description
	 *
	 * @hooked woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item
	 *
	 * @since 1.1.0
	 */
	function astra_woo_shop_product_short_description() {
		?>
		<?php if ( has_excerpt() ) { ?>
		<div class="ast-woo-shop-product-description">
			<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
		</div>
	<?php } ?>
		<?php
	}
endif;
