Same Text on Multiple WooCommerce Products

    How can I add the same identical block to text to the Description or Short Description field in every WooCommerce product page within the same category?

    For instance, let’s say I have a product category called “Art Prints” and there are 100 published products in that category. Now let’s say I wanted to add to the Description field in every product a new sentence “Signed by the artist with a certificate of authenticity.” How would I do this without having to edit each product individually? Is there some PHP code that I can add to my child theme, or is a plugin necessary?

  • Hi

    Please check the following code:

    function wphelp_append_woo_short_description( $post_excerpt ) {
    global $post;
    if ( has_term( "YOUR_PRODUCT_CATEGORY_SLUG", "product_cat", $post->ID ) ) {
        $post_excerpt .= "YOUR_TEXT_HERE";
    }
    return $post_excerpt; 
};
add_filter( 'woocommerce_short_description','wphelp_append_woo_short_description',10, 1 );

    You can paste it in your child theme’s functions.php file using FTP/SFTP/cPanel. Please replace YOUR_PRODUCT_CATEGORY_SLUG with the product category slug and YOUR_TEXT_HERE with the text you want to append.

    I hope this will help you.

    Kind regards

    Prashant, thank you for the code. I tried it and it definitely works, although it doesn’t format they way I want it to. However, I figured out that exporting/importing products via .csv file is a handy way to make changes for multiple products, so I’ll probably use this method instead. @prashantvatsh

    Jan, thank you for the posting guidance. I’m new to the forum and am just learning how to navigate it properly. @jdembowski
