I would like to rename the tab section named “DESCRIPTION”, I also want to make it closed by default rather than opened.

Please let me know where I can change these files.

Many thanks,

Jamie

Thanks for this. I have tried adding their suggested fix to the functions.php file in the theme folder, but this breaks the site and I get a white page.

Is there somewhere else I should be adding the code other than functions.php in the root theme folder?

Many thanks,

Jamie

I’d like to be able to do this myself, I have experience of customising code so just point me in the right direction.

Also there is a lot of repetition in the tabs – the titles say “DESCRIPTION” then directly underneath it says “Product Descrption” again which is unnecessary. The same goes for “Additional Info”, if you expand this tab it then has “Additonal Info” displayed underneath a second time.

If you can tell me where the title is and where the sub title is and in what file I can do the rest.

Hello

All default woocommerce plugin strings for files can be found in wp-content/plugins/woocomerce/i18n/languages/****.pot file. You may use POEDIT text editor for translation and use right click on the words you mentioned. The same way you may use for theme default strings. Please open wp-content/themes/woopress/languges/***.po file and check any word you cannot edit using wordpres backend panel.

With best regards
Brian Johnson

Hello,

You need add this code in functions.php in wp-content/themes/royal directory to rename “Description” tab:
```
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woo_rename_tabs', 98 );
function woo_rename_tabs( $tabs ) {

	$tabs['description']['title'] = __( 'More Information' );		// Rename the description tab
	return $tabs;

}
```
Replace “More Information” text with your own.

To remove additional titles from tabs add this code in custom.css file:
```
.tabs .tab-content h2 {
 display: none !important;
}
```
How to create custom.css you can watch in this tutorial (it’s for Legenda theme but the process is the same).

Regards,
Eva Kemp.

Brillaint, thank you. That has worked.

If I ever update the theme will the functions.php and custom.css stay unchanged?

Hello,

Custom.css will be saved, but functions.php will be reloaded.
In this case you need create child theme http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes and copy functions.php in there.

Thank you.
