remove_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'wpautop' );

but it didn't work with woocommerce product short desc

i was trying to use this code

remove_filter( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'wpautop' );

Thank you anyway!

Just like you remove wpautop in post and pages content, use the same remove filter function, but with correct hook.

remove_filter('woocommerce_short_description','wpautop');

This is all you would need. No fanciness in the functions.php, no creating of additional functions with a hook and then calling remove filter in it. Enjoy!

To remove a filter you have to call that from inside a function that is added to a hook. I don't 100% know why that is, but that seems to be the case. While you can call add_action() directly in your plugin/theme you cannot call remove_action(). You can see that the wpauto is added to the woocommerce_short_description filter. So to remove it you must do something like the following:

function so_34700299_remote_autop(){
    remove_filter( 'woocommerce_short_description', 'wpautop' );
}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'so_34700299_remove_autop' );

you can do it like this...

function rei_woocommerce_short_description($the_excerpt) {

    return wp_strip_all_tags($the_excerpt);
}
add_filter('woocommerce_short_description', 'rei_woocommerce_short_description',10, 1);

Note:

  1. wp_strip_all_tags will strip all HTML tags including script and style.

  2. pass second parameter true if you want to remove break tag <br/> also.

    return wp_strip_all_tags( $the_excerpt, true );
