add long product description to woocommerce shop page

Hi there,

I am trying to add the long product description to the shop page of woocommerce. I have found a snippet of code to add to the functions file to display the short description or excerpt, and changed the function to what I think is the long description function (‘woocommerce_single_product_summary’):

add_action('woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item','woocommerce_single_product_summary', 5);

but it does not seem to be working. Does anyone have any ideas?

I was wondering if it might be something to do with the fact that the product description is embedded in the tabs on the product page?

Thanks in advance.
Sarah
