    Hi there,

    I am trying to add the long product description to the shop page of woocommerce. I have found a snippet of code to add to the functions file to display the short description or excerpt, and changed the function to what I think is the long description function (‘woocommerce_single_product_summary’):

    add_action(‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’,’woocommerce_single_product_summary’, 5);

    but it does not seem to be working. Does anyone have any ideas?

    I want to put two separate pieces of data into this field and upload via CSV import, so I also need to know how to separate them with line breaks and for CSS purposes.

    Thanks in advance.
    Sarah

    Post the code you had. Just changing the name of the function call won’t work – the function needs to exist.

    Okay, here was the code:

    add_action('woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title','woocommerce_template_single_excerpt', 10);

    Thanks for your help!

    Instead of woocommerce_template_single_excerpt, use custom_woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title

    And add a function like this:

    function custom_woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title() {
$content = get_the_content('Read more');
print $content;
}

    Thanks Mike, that worked with a few small modifications.

    Could I trouble you with one more thing? Is there some way of designating a class for the content so that I can style it with CSS? I am trying to make the text bold and red.

    Thanks so much again for your help!

    Kind regards,
    Sarah

    You can wrap it in a div.

    print '<div class="your_class">' . $content . '</div>';
