Product description

    I’m pretty sure this might be a core WordPress/WooCommerce issue, but here goes anyways.

    When I go to a single product page, I have the Product Title, the Price, the Add To Cart Button, and a Short Description. Then all the way at the bottom is the ACTUAL description.

    I know I can hide the short or long description, but no matter what, the actual description stays at the bottom.

    Is there anyway to have the actual description under the title and get rid of the short description?

    It’s not a huge deal, but I only need one description area, and Yoast doesn’t acknowledge the short description so I have to add everything into it manually.

  • Try to add the below code to the functions.php file of the child theme and check it works or not – 

    remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_excerpt', 20 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'the_content', 20 );

    Oooh…..it almost works. It does put the description where the short description used to be, under the title/price.

    But it also posts the description in the regular place at the bottom.

    In other words, it’s posting the regular product description twice. If I could get rid of the one at the bottom that would be great.

    Here, so you can see what I’m talking about.

    I only typed “Test test test test test test test test” in the main description. I didn’t type anything into the short description.

    It’s posting the description twice.

    Add the below code the functions.php file of the child theme to remove the default description tab –

    add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'prefix_remove_product_tabs', 98 );
function prefix_remove_product_tabs( $tabs ) {
    unset( $tabs['description'] ); 
    return $tabs;
}
