Hi @mdperez86, thanks for merging this pull request. Please take a look at these follow-up tasks you may need to perform:

Hi everyone, please reconsider collapsing the short description by default. To view the reasons why our discussion group believes this is not a good idea, please see our comments here- https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-expand-short-description-by-default/ |

Good morning, I'd like for this to be seriously considered, I have 3 clients complaining about it as it ruins their workflow. At least give us an option in Woocommerce to enable/disable by default. Since the update there have been at least 5 threads so far posted in the Woocommerce support forum and I don't think they're going to stop anytime soon. To be frank, who had this bloody ideia? |
|
Thank you for the quick fix @louwie17! Just in case another debate breaks about this topic in the future, here are my two cents: I also had clients complain about this. I believe the short description is elementary especially from a customer and conversion point of view. I have several smaller customers (and this is probably a significant niche for WC) who do not use the regular description at all, but instead simply use 2-3 sentences as short description. Frankly, I would rather want to see the short description edit field be placed before the regular description. This would i) highlight the importance of the field and ii) be more concise with the position where most themes display the short description frontend-side (usually before the regular description). I just see that @pmcpinto mentioned the same suggestion/issue in the original pull request originally leading to this change. |

Hi First time github user/post here! 👋 I'd like to ask that the auto-collapsed short description be reconsidered. (edit: I now see the other github pull request that reverts! I'm happy to see that) I am a web designer and help small business owners build ecom on Woo. I use the short description on EVERY product listing AND I educate my clients on the best practice of keeping it short or highlight a few key features using a bulleted list. By having this section auto-collapsed, it adds an extra click to every product. I never knew until yesterday how inconvenient one extra click could be. Please reconsider this decision. I do love the tooltip with best practice suggestion. Maybe having the SD box be a bit smaller or having placeholder text that shows an example of highlighting 3 short bullet points. Or have some education included in a startup wizard/walkthrough? Thank you for all your hard work in developing Woo, I use it almost daily. Thanks for your time and consideration |

Thanks for your feedback. We'll revert this change in WooCommerce 7.2 (December) |

michaeljnissen wrote: > Frankly, I would rather want to see the short description edit field be placed before the regular description. I completely agree. That's the position in which it appears on the actual product page. I have never understood why the layout of the Edit Page is reversed. It makes no intuitive sense. It also is an annoying quirk since the business owner I work for writes up the info for the product pages in Word documents that we copy-paste into those fields -- a list of the main features and a short intro paragraph into the Short Description, and then the details, if there are any (and sometimes there aren't) into the long description part. I've gotten used to scrolling down to paste the Short Description info in when I open an Edit Page, and then scrolling back up, and have never liked that I had to do that. Moreover, when opening the Edit Page if there is no long description, you're greeted with a blank box on opening it. So as long as we're questioning collapsing Short Description, I think putting it at the top is a change that's long overdue for a smoother workflow. And it would also help new users if part of the goal is making this more intuitive to use. |

I used to think the same thing. But I recently discovered that you can drag the short description field to the top. |
|
Oh, and by the way, my short description field is now much taller and not collapsed by default. I modified the code in certain files. If you do not want to wait for the next WordPress update, I explained how I did that in the WordPress forum at - https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-expand-short-description-by-default/. See my comments there (user name dave8441). I hope this helps. |

Hi mold-man 1 -- you wrote > I used to think the same thing. But I recently discovered that you can drag the short description field to the top. That does not work for me. I've tried before and I just tried again. It will not move. The closest I can get is right under the long description. |

Hi @GlazerGallery , |
|
Hi @mold-man1 -- thanks for the idea, but that doesn't work for me. I do have the two-column layout enabled already, but the way the Edit Page in WooCommerce is set up, the left column takes up about 3/4 of the width, and having the Short Description squished into that narrow column on the right doesn't work for me. I just want it directly above the long description. |
|
I meant to say, after you put it in the narrow column, do not leave it there, but then try to drag it from there to directly above the long description. After you do that, the width of the short description will automatically widen to the same width as the long description. |
|
Hi @mold-man1 -- No, that does not work for me. I can put it in the narrow column, but cannot move it back to the wide column above the long description. The closest I can get is right under the long description. |
|
Sorry that did not work for you. You may want to post the issue at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/ and perhaps the plugin authors can help. |
|
Please revert this! Super annoying to reopen the 'short description field' each time, its just an extra click. And it's small thay i always scroll over it to find it.. It's just an extra step. If you don't want to see this field. Drag it to the bottom of your dashboard panel. Please revert this, thank you. |

This change will be reverted in WooCommerce 7.2: #35213 |

Dear Sir Jerome/Sir Boy,

We would like to ask approval because the hospital badly needed the stocks.
