I found this code to limit woocommerce product title and its working. But the problem is it applies everywhere even in single product page. How do I make exception not to apply in product page?

add_filter( 'the_title', 'shorten_woo_product_title', 10, 2 );

function shorten_woo_product_title( $title, $id ) {

    if (get_post_type( $id ) === 'product' ) {

        return wp_trim_words( $title, 4, '...' ); // change last number to the number of words you want

    } else {

        return $title;

    }

}

add_filter( 'the_title', 'shorten_woo_product_title', 10, 2 );

function shorten_woo_product_title( $title, $id ) {

    if ( ! is_singular( array( 'product' ) ) && get_post_type( $id ) === 'product' ) {

        return wp_trim_words( $title, 4, '...' ); // change last number to the number of words you want

    } else {

        return $title;

    }

}

The best way is to use woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title hook:

• First unhooking the product title from loop archive pages.


• Then hooking back a custom version that shorten the title as you want.

This way this shortening will be applied exclusively on product titles on all woocommerce loops (all woocommerce archives pages, related products, upsells, cross sells, shortcodes, widgets…) avoiding changes with single product title.

remove_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title', 'woocommerce_template_loop_product_title', 10 );

add_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title', 'shorten_loop_product_title', 10 );

function shorten_loop_product_title() {

    echo '<h2 class="woocommerce-loop-product__title">' . wp_trim_words( get_the_title(), 4, '...' ) . '</h2>';

}

Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (active theme). Tested and works.

To shorten product title limiting the number of characters with PHP substr() function, replace the following line in my code:

echo '<h2 class="woocommerce-loop-product__title">' . wp_trim_words( get_the_title(), 4, '...' ) . '</h2>';

by:

echo '<h2 class="woocommerce-loop-product__title">' . substr( get_the_title(), 0, 25 ) . '...' . '</h2>';

If you want this to be applied only on woocommerce archives pages as shop, you will use:

remove_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title', 'woocommerce_template_loop_product_title', 10 );

add_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title', 'shorten_loop_product_title', 10 );

function shorten_loop_product_title() {

    echo '<h2 class="woocommerce-loop-product__title">';



    if ( is_shop() || is_product_category() || is_product_tag() ) {

        echo wp_trim_words( get_the_title(), 4, '...' );

    } else {

        echo get_the_title();

    }



    echo '</h2>';

}

Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (active theme). Tested and works.
