My aplogies, below is the link:

Sample link

Hi @couch,

To get the result as you desired, you must activate the child theme. You can get knowledge about the child theme and download eStore child theme from the link below.

If you can code on your own, then you can achieve it via the child theme.

Okay then.

Can you just guide me on which file under “theme files” that i should edit for this?

Hi @couch,

I think you should edit inc/widgets/class-estore-woocommerce-product-grid.php file inside eStore theme, if you go for theme files.

found it. thank you so much.

Just one final question.
When adding a product, there is a an option to add “product short description”. Could you have an idea the function name given to call the “product short description”?
for example, under inc/widgets/class-estore-woocommerce-product-grid.php the product title is being called by “the_title()” tag. My question is how the “product short description” can be called.

Your response is truly appreciated.

Hi @couch,

I think get_short_description() function can be used to call the “product short description”.

Thanks Ankit.

Unfortunately that didn’t work. Getting the Error: Call to undefined function get_short_description() error. Been looking as to where the function are defined but cant seem to find them. Any clues?

Hi @couch,

I apologize for the trouble before. Can you please add the below code in a file name inc/widgets/class-estore-woocommerce-product-grid.php before <div class="cart-wishlist-btn"> and check it once?

<?php if ( $description = $product->get_description() ) : ?>
<h3 class="product-list-title"><?php esc_html_e('Description: ', 'estore'); ?></h3><?php echo $description; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

And, we recommend you to do so using a child theme so that you won’t lose those changes when the theme’s next update rolls around. Please do let us know if there’s any confusion.

Hi @couch,

We’d replied to you on the same query in your other support thread. So, can you please once check and confirm it?

Ankit,

Yes seen it. just that the response was a bit slow today hence was confused on whether to start a new ticket or continue it here.

Hi @couch,

Sorry for the late reply. We suggest you to resolve the current ticket and start a new support thread as you did before. It would be easier for us in such a case.

Have a good time! ??
