 * Hi, I’m triying to use a default Short Description template for new products.
   I need to edit that Short Description template for each product. I need to see
   it in Backend short description text editor each time I add new product. Is there
   any way to do it?
 * Thank you!

 * Hi [@carlosgumiel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/carlosgumiel/). I understand
   you want to add a short description template that automatically populates for
   new products. I don’t know of a plugin that will do this specifically, but there
   are many generic template/page customization plugins that would probably have
   similar functionality. Elementor is a popular page builder plugin that works 
   with WooCommerce stores. There are also plugins like [this one](https://toolset.com/learn/create-an-ecommerce-wordpress-site/single-product/)
   that are more targeted to WooCommerce.
 * You could also accomplish this with code. [This Stack Overflow]([https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52231164/default-short-description-in-woocommerce-product-pages](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52231164/default-short-description-in-woocommerce-product-pages))
   supposedly accomplishes this, although I haven’t tested this code myself and 
   can’t guarantee its efficacy or safety. I found this and similar answers by Googling`
   WooCommerce default description text`, so you might have some luck with that.
 * If worse comes to worse, you could always copy the template text into a text 
   file and then paste it in when you create a new product (although it sounds like
   you might already be doing this).

 * Thank you Austin for your quick answer. I`ve already tried that. It doesn´t work
   the way I’m looking for… The only way I use is the copy/paste the text file…
 * Thanks!

 * OK. It did seem like there were multiple answers out there for how to do this
   with code. What about [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53814799/how-to-add-default-text-in-woocommerce-product-description-page),
   for example?

 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved.
