title: Woocommerce Short Description Excerpt Length
body: <p>I'm trying to change the Short Description excerpt length.</p>
  
  <p>I found a previous post stating that I should change </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php echo apply_filters( 'woocommerce_short_description', $post-&gt;post_excerpt ) ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php $excerpt = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_short_description', $post-&gt;post_excerpt );
      echo substr($length,0, 10);
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However when doing that, my excerpts simply disappear.</p>
