How to Disable Single Product Page in WooCommerce

Question

I am building an e-commerce site with Woocommerce 3.6.4 + Wordpress 5.2.2.

I tried to disable the single product page of WooCommerce so that people can shop directly from my shop page.

Tried:

1. Add the code below to my child theme's functions.php file, didn't work.

remove_action( ‘woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item’,‘woocommerce_template_loop_product_link_open’, 10 );
remove_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’,‘woocommerce_template_loop_product_link_close’, 5 );

2. Add the same code to my WooCommerce content-product.php file. Didn't work.

3./wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/templates/content-product.php

Make these code as comments:

        do_action( ‘woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item’);
        do_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’);

Become like this:

       //do_action( ‘woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item’);
       //do_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’);

It removed the link to the shopping page, but didn't remove the single product page.

Any advice or help, please?

As a person who knows nothing about coding, this is literally driving me crazy!!!

Can anyone help me, please? Any suggestion would be great!!

Below is the wp_content/themes/my_theme/woocommerce/content-product.php:

    `<?php
/**
 * The template for displaying product content within loops
 *
 * This template can be overridden by copying it to yourtheme/woocommerce/content-product.php.
 *
 * HOWEVER, on occasion WooCommerce will need to update template files and you
 * (the theme developer) will need to copy the new files to your theme to
 * maintain compatibility. We try to do this as little as possible, but it does
 * happen. When this occurs the version of the template file will be bumped and
 * the readme will list any important changes.

Answer 1

In your themes functions.php add the code,

// remove single product page link
remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item','woocommerce_template_loop_product_link_open', 10 );
remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item','woocommerce_template_loop_product_link_close', 5 );

// hide single product page completely
add_filter( 'woocommerce_register_post_type_product','hide_product_page',12,1);
function hide_product_page($args){
  $args["publicly_queryable"]=false;
  $args["public"]=false;
  return $args;
}

solution was partly based on @Vitaly Gritsienko 's answer
