   somewhere on the product page the Tag’s Description text.
 * Is it possible?

 * Can you confirm if I am understanding correctly? You are wanting an additional
   description to show on the single product page when a product has a specific 
   tag?

 * You could just literally add a ‘Special Order’ tag for these products, then if
   you need to show some custom CSS or banner of some sort, create a function that
   looks for that matching tag.
 * You can use a conditional tag:

 * Would that tag be added as a product attribute as well?

 * Jesse Pearson, yes that would be excellent.
 * Thomas, as amazingly perfect as that would be I don’t have enough experience 
   in WordPress. I assume that something like that would be a javascript function
   that if tag = “Special Order” then display a banner at the top of the page? If
   so would that be implemented on the functions.php? I’d love to give it a try.
 * Luke, It could be, and probably should be.

 * Some custom PHP should be all that you need, shouldn’t need any javascript.
 * Another solution could be to use a plugin like this: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/blocks/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/blocks/).
   You can add this additional content in that plugin, and then enter the shortcode
   on all products where you want this information to show up.
