Removing woocommerce short description field

Question

I'm creating a theme designed specifically for usage with woocommerce. This theme's design does not utilize the "Product Short Description". Removing that description from displaying on the page was easy enough using:

remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_excerpt', 20);

However, I cannot seem to find any way to remove the field/panel itself from showing to the admin on the product editing pages. If anyone knows how to do that, it would be greatly appreciated. To be clear this is the newer woocommerce 2.0. Thanks!

Answer 1

You can remove the Short Description field from the WooCommerce admin area via PHP:

function remove_short_description() {
     remove_meta_box( 'postexcerpt', 'product', 'normal');
}

add_action('add_meta_boxes', 'remove_short_description', 999);

Answer 2

As answered in different treads:

remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_excerpt', 20 );

function woocommerce_template_single_excerpt() {
    return;
}

Answer 3

This is also what I am looking for. For me, to target the product description's css, use .single-product .entry-content.

Until now, I think Woocommerce doesn't provide any hook for product description only.
