 * I’m trying to display the products short description in the Sold Out Products
   Widget.
 * I’ve edited the following while loop
 *     ```
       while ( $r->have_posts()) {
       				$r->the_post();
       				global $product;
   
       				echo '<li>
       					<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">
       						' . ( has_post_thumbnail() ? get_the_post_thumbnail( $r->post->ID, 'shop_catalog' ) : woocommerce_placeholder_img( 'shop_thumbnail' ) ) . ' <h3>' . get_the_title() . '</h3>
       					</a> ' . $product->get_price_html() . '
       				</li>';
   
       			}
       ```
   
 * to look like…
 *     ```
       while ( $r->have_posts()) {
       				$r->the_post();
       				global $product;
       				global $post;
   
       				echo '<li>
       					<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">
       						' . ( has_post_thumbnail() ? get_the_post_thumbnail( $r->post->ID, 'shop_catalog' ) : woocommerce_placeholder_img( 'shop_thumbnail' ) ) . ' <h3>' . get_the_title() . '</h3>
       					</a> ' . $product->get_price_html() . ' Short Description ' . apply_filters( 'woocommerce_short_description', $post->post_excerpt ) . '
       				</li>';
   
       			}
       ```
   
 * It’s not working, so if anyone can help me acheive this, it would be greatly 
   appreciated.
