  • Tag Information
  • Nesting This Tag
Basic Use
To output the short description on the product page just insert the tag where you would like this to be output. The short description doesn't allow formatting so none will be output.

[ekm:productshortdescription][/ekm:productshortdescription]
                                
This would output something like...
iPod dock speaker system 30W Sound Output Integrated SubWoofer Plays docks and charges all iPods Adjustable Treble and Bass Controls Remote Control Line-in connection Mains Operated
Full Use
If used with a font_formatting attribute the description will be output without any of the systems predefined formatting. This strips out all <font> tags.

[ekm:productshortdescription]
  font_formatting='no';
  output_start='<div>';
  output_end='</div>';
[/ekm:productshortdescription]
