 * Hello, I want to add extra info in the product page.
 * I want to add custom text when adding a product, and then display it on product
   page by an elementor display tag or shortcode. I don’t want it to go to additional
   information tabs.
 * What is the best way do do this? Is there any plugin that can do it?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fadding-extra-product-info%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Have you seen this plugin:
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-widget/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-widget/)
 * You can write your extra info as a content block, and the plugin gives you the
   shortcode to be able to insert it where you please.
 * If you later update the content block, the update shows everywhere the shortcode
   has been used.

 * Hi, [@lorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorro/).
 * Thanks, but I need something that can display different text for each product.
 * Looks like this would display the same text for every product because the shortcode
   is the same on every product page.

 * Yes.
 * You can show the description before the tabs with some code:
 *     ```
       add_action( 'woocommerce_after_single_product_summary', 'show_product_description',  5 );
       function show_product_description() {
         global $post;
         the_content();
       }
       ```
   
 * You’ll still see the description in description tab, so to remove that, unset
   the description tab as explained here:
    [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/editing-product-data-tabs/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/editing-product-data-tabs/)
 * But if you want some text before the tabs, and some in the description tab, then
   it gets complicated. You’ll need to setup a separate meta box to capture the 
   additional text and then show it using the add_action() similar to above. Creating
   an additional metabox is beyond the scope of a forum answer.
 * I don’t know of a plugin that will do this but someone might.
 * I have assumed your product page template is using the WooCommerce standard arrangement.
   Some themes have their own templates.

 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to go ahead and mark 
   this thread as resolved. If you have any other questions please feel free to 
   start a new thread.
