Product Description

Display the full or short product description with rich text formatting and customisable styling.

Overview

The Product Description widget outputs the product’s description text on the Product Details page. It supports both the Full Description and Short Description fields set in Goose → Products, and renders HTML content including headings, lists, and inline formatting.

How to Add It

  1. Open the Elementor editor on your Product Details page template.
  2. Search for Product Description in the widget panel.
  3. Drag it onto the canvas in the product information section.
  4. Select the description source (Full or Short) in the Content panel.
Note: Product descriptions are written per product in Goose → Products → Full Description / Short Description.

Common Use Cases

Use the Short Description at the top of the product information column for a brief intro, and the Full Description further down the page for detailed product content. Use tabs to organise the full description, attributes, and reviews into separate sections on longer product pages.

Tips & Notes

Tip: Write the Short Description as a 1-3 sentence selling summary that appears above the Add to Cart button — it is the most read copy on the product page.
Note: The Full Description supports HTML. Write it in the rich text editor in Goose → Products.
