WooWeekly #345: Product Admin

Hope all is well with you!

Here in Sicily (Italy) all is well. I’ve had 3 very busy weeks and in fact I haven’t published anything on Business Bloomer and totally forgot to send WooCommerce Weekly for the last 2 weeks… that’s definitely a record.

Story is that I managed to move to a new apartment that will be our base while renovating our new house after the summer, and on top of that I also ended up with a huge backlog of work. I’m writing this newsletter at night before going to bed as that’s the only minute I found today lol.

Anyhow, welcome back to our WooCommerce Weekly appointment – here comes a series of WooCommerce tutorials put together by yours truly so that you can learn something new.

WooCommerce Tip (Sorry, Not That New!)

WooCommerce: Remove “Metaboxes” @ Product Edit Admin Page

Let’s say you disabled product tags in your shop. Or maybe your store set up requires no short description. Or even, you want to hide a custom “metabox” (e.g. one of those widgets that appear on the Edit Product page). Either way, removing metaboxes and making the Edit Product page much cleaner is quite easy.

You just need the “ID” of the metabox and its position (‘normal’ or ‘side’, depending on whether it’s in the sidebar or not), and then this little PHP snippet. Enjoy: https://www.businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-remove-metaboxes-product-edit-admin-page/
