WooCommerce: Move Social Sharing @ Single Product Page
JetPack sharing (and other social media sharing plugins) allow you to add social media sharing to your woocommerce products. However, the sharing buttons will only show at the bottom of the “Long description”.
How to move that up a bit, say between the short description and the product tabs? Simply add this function to your functions.php file editor:

// Remove them from under short description
remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_sharing', 50 );
// Readd above product tabs
add_action( 'woocommerce_after_single_product_summary' , 'woocommerce_template_single_sharing', 5 );
Please let me know in the comments if everything went as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting.

Hi Manali, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is definitely possible, but I’m afraid it’s custom work. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding!
Hey Jerry thanks for your comment! Weird, this should work properly. Can you do me a favour and temporarily switch to another theme like 2016, to see if the “duplication” still happens on the single product page? Thank you!
Thanks this was the only site that had the correct code to add to functions.php and helped find the proper woocommerce hook. It is missing the Likes code, however, which is explained on the JetPack site and might be useful for some people.

How can I add social sharing icons in tabs on woocommerce product detail page?

Hi Jerry, I encounter the same issue here using the Divi Theme. Did you solve your issue without changing your theme?
I’ll second that was magic!!!
Thanks!
Cheers!
awesome!!!! thank you
You’re very welcome Mary!
.. thanks Rodolfo, that was magic ..
You’re welcome 🙂
Anyway to move these below the variations? Right now they appear below short dec. but above variation options? Thanks!
Hey Brad, thanks for your comment. Just play with the number “33” and increase it gradually until the sharing goes under the variations 🙂
