WooCommerce: Hide Weight & Dimensions From Additional Information Tab @ Single Product

If a WooCommerce product comes with weight and/or height / length / width values, these will be displayed by default in the Single Product page, under the “Additional Information” tab.

Should you need to hide them completely from the frontend while keeping the list of attributes below them, thankfully there’s a PHP one-liner you can use. Enjoy!

Advanced Plugin: WooCommerce Product Tabs

In case you’re not comfortable editing PHP, I also found a plugin that lets you a similar result to the code snippet without having to make any code changes.

The WooCommerce Product Tabs plugin lets you hide or rename the default product page tabs, and create new ones of your own. To hide the weight or dimensions from the Additional Information tab, you can hide the default tab and create a new one containing whatever product data you like.

As well as giving you more control over your product tabs, the plugin comes with some extra bonus features such as adding an icon to the new custom Additional Information tab.

Where to add custom code?

You should place custom PHP in functions.php and custom CSS in style.css of your child theme: where to place WooCommerce customization?

This code still works, unless you report otherwise. To exclude conflicts, temporarily switch to the Storefront theme, disable all plugins except WooCommerce, and test the snippet again: WooCommerce troubleshooting 101
