Answer 1

thank god found your solution

Are you using the most current version of WooCommerce? If so, look in your plugins folder and navigate to "woocommerce -> templates -> single-product -> meta.php". Look on line 27 and you should see at least one location where this is being created. Try to edit that line and see if it works for you.

Keep in mind, anytime you are editing the WooCommerce template files you should move them into your theme folder. This way you will still be able to update WooCommerce without overwriting your edits. You can edit these files in an upgrade safe way through overrides. Simply copy it into a directory within your theme named /woocommerce, keeping the same file structure except you don't include the templates folder. So to override the meta.php file the structure inside of theme folder would be: woocommerce -> single-product -> meta.php

taken refrence from How to edit what's displayed in the Woocommerce Single Product Meta template?

tried in my own wordpress site as well

in meta.php on line no 35 replace this

<?php echo wc_get_product_category_list( $product->get_id(), ', ', '<span class="posted_in">' . _n( 'Brand:', 'Brands:', count( $product->get_category_ids() ), 'woocommerce' ) . ' ', '</span>' ); ?>

It worked for me!! cheers

You can remove these from the layout by removing the woocommerce_template_single_meta action from the product summary , in your themes functions.php add in …

 remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_meta', 40 );

This will remove the categories aka product meta from the layout.

You can see a lot of these woocommerce hooks in the plugin woocommerce/includes/wc-template-hooks.php – our example above is originally is in this file highlighted.

/**
 * Product Summary Box
 *
 * @see woocommerce_template_single_title()
 * @see woocommerce_template_single_price()
 * @see woocommerce_template_single_excerpt()
 * @see woocommerce_template_single_meta()
 * @see woocommerce_template_single_sharing()
 */
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_title', 5 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_rating', 10 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_price', 10 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_excerpt', 20 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_meta', 40 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_sharing', 50 );

So the action includes the hook and what function we are hooking into it and the priority number – so instead of editing here, you just simply remove_action the desired action in your functions.php including the priority number, the trick is finding out which one you need!

You wan't to customise the word "Categories:", then, If you are using Storefront, or any other decent "extendable" theme, from the child-theme you can 'override' the template-function that renders the meta in single-product by just pasting the code of the function in your theme's function.php file.
