Developer Guide
🧩 Template Override Support
To override the brand tab layout, copy the default template into your theme:
Destination Path:
yourtheme/woocommerce/single-product/tabs/brand-information.php
Original Plugin Template:
templates/single-product/tabs/brand-information.php
You can customize how the brand name, logo, and description are displayed in the additional tab.
🔄 Custom Action Hooks
Use these hooks to inject content before or after the brand tab output:
Before the brand content block.
do_action( 'wc_pbat_before_brand_content', $brand );
After the brand content block.
do_action( 'wc_pbat_after_brand_content', $brand );🔧 Helper Method
Render clean and filtered brand description using:
WC_Product_Brand_Additional_Tab::get_content( $term );
This ensures the description is properly formatted and filtered.
🔃 Filter Hooks
Controls whether the plugin should use the_content filter to format the brand description.
add_filter( 'wc_pbat_use_the_content_filter', '__return_false' )
Default: true
Fires only when the_content filter is skipped. Allows custom formatting of brand descriptions in the tab.
add_filter( 'wc_pbat_filter_tab_content', function( $description ) {
return wpautop( esc_html( $description ) );
});
These filters give developers full control over how brand descriptions are rendered in the tab.
