I have 4 products that I'm displaying in a table format. The name of the products shows (in this case they are workshops) but I had expected the product description to also show up in the product list. It appears just fine when the product is clicked on but I would really like to have a brief product description appear below each of the products names? As far as I can tell I have the toggles set correctly but I'm getting no love. Any thoughts of what I'm doing wrong?

You'll need to add such code in the file "listing_table" of the view "product" via the menu Display>Views: <?php echo echo $this->row->product_description; ?> For example, you can add it after: <?php if(!empty($this->row->extraData->afterProductName)) { echo implode("\r\n",$this->row->extraData->afterProductName); } ?> if you want it after the product name.
