Woocommerce : Replace ' Product Categories ' by ' Short Description ' on Product Page

Question

In the product page, each product has an image, and below two sub caption : the title and a link to the product categories. I'd like to replace this product categories field with the short description of the product.

I had a look at every php file in the woocomerce folder, but can't find the line to edit.

thanks for you help.

Generally in WooCommerce, It is located in wp-content > plugins > woocommerce > templates > single-product > meta.php Line 30

But if you are using themes for woocommerce, then it might be located at some other place but for that you need to debug by your self to find it.

NOTE : DO NOT change the default WooCommerce file directly. There is nice tutorial about it.

EDITED

Replace it with below code:

<?php
   global $post;
   if ( ! $post->post_excerpt ) {
       return;
   }
?>
<div itemprop="description">
    <?php echo apply_filters( 'woocommerce_short_description', $post->post_excerpt ) ?>
</div>
