    I would like to add the item description to my order details. I have found some topics on adding some code to my child theme’s function.php but they do not seem to work.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I was thinking that for my purposes it might even be better to show a specific attribute in my order details rather than item description.

    Please let me know if this is possible.

    Thank you!

    Hi @denniscabrera!

    The following code works: 

    add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_item_name', 'add_single_excerpt_to_order_item', 10, 3 );
function add_single_excerpt_to_order_item( $item_name, $item, $is_visible ){
    $product_id = $item->get_product_id(); // Get the product Id
    $excerpt = get_the_excerpt( $product_id ); // Get the short description

    return $item_name . '<br><p class="item-description">' . $excerpt ; '</p>';
}

    You can add this code to your site using the Code snippets plugin.

    Here’s some information on how to add code to your site the correct way:
