hi there,

How can I add a read more link or the short description (post_excerpt) under products titles on products shop page?

Is this in the content-product.php file or can be added via functions?

Many thanks

Hello,

You can enable product excerpt using this code in custom.css:
```
.products-grid .product-title {
    position: static !important;
}
.products-grid .product-excerpt {
    display: block !important;
}
```
Regards,
Eva Kemp.

Thanks Eva,

How would I limit the excerpt length? I would like to say have 10 words and then a read more link.

Thank you very much

Is there any way just to have read more link for the excerpt?

You may try to add following code in to the content-product.php after this line<?php echo do_shortcode(get_the_excerpt()); ?>:

<a style="color:white;" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"> <div class="button medium">Read more</div></a>

With best regards

Rather than have full (short description) of product on products page (excerpt)

Just have read more link under the title, so it would be like this:

Product image
Product title
Read more (link)
Price

Thanks

I tried adding the codes and no read more link appears, just the short product description (excerpt) ?

Hello,

Please take our apologies but Products page is configured by Woocommerce and you’d better contact them concerning your query. Also you can refer to this article:

Thank you.
