Short product description not displayed on shop

Hi @opvelp,

Thank you for reaching out and I understand you’re having trouble with the short product descriptions not displaying in your shop. I’ve checked your website and it seems that the short descriptions are displaying correctly on my end. Here’s a screenshot of what I see:

Thanks for your quick reply. I’m sorry I wasn’t clear with my question.

Yes, I can also see the short description on the product pages, but I was hoping to be able to display the short description on the shop page, as a part of the product gallery. I have seen various examples of this but can’t figure out how to do it.

Thank you

Hi @opvelp,

By default, WooCommerce does not show the product’s short descriptions on the shop page. However, this can be achieved with some customization.

I found some code snippets which might help you to achieve your goals:

I wish I could help more, but hopefully, this gets you going in the right direction to get the job done.
