How to short (truncate) long products title in WooCommerce category pages?

You can use the follow code in your theme’s functions.php or writing a custom plugin to achieve it:

function my_custom_wc_products_title( $title ) {
	if ( is_product_category() ) {
		return wp_trim_words( $title, 5, '...' );
	}

	return $title;
}

add_filter( 'the_title', 'my_custom_wc_products_title' );

Check the docs for wp_trim_words(): https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/wp_trim_words

Good luck.

HI Claudio Sanches

thanks for your reply , and How could I change the code ? If I want to short WooCommerce products title in Shop page & category pages & product tags pages ?

Is it possible ?

Thanks

Just use the WoooCommerce conditional functions: https://docs.woothemes.com/document/conditional-tags/

I have these code work for me now :

// Limit all WooCommerce product titles to max number of characters
add_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘shorten_woo_product_title’, 10, 2 );
function shorten_woo_product_title( $title, $id ) {
if ( is_product_category() && get_post_type( $id ) === ‘product’ ) {
return substr( $title, 0, 80 ); // change last number to the number of characters you want
} else {
return $title;
}
}

But how to add WoooCommerce conditional functions to above code ?

Is the below right : change this line ?
if ( is_shop() & is_product_category() && get_post_type( $id ) === ‘product’ ) {

Please advance … Thanks
