Get coupon description using WC_Coupon::get_description()

* TWEAK: Get coupon description using WC_Coupon::get_description() to respect applicable filters (for example used by Polylang)

I was checking this and I found that to get the results I expected I need to change WJECF_Wrap.php get_description() last line
from:
$post->post_excerpt;
to:

        return apply_filters( 'woocommerce_coupon_get_description', 
            $post->post_excerpt, $post );

could this be included in a future patch…

Is this in combination with WooCommerce 2.6 by any chance?

[Jonathan Moore]

that was with WooCommerce 3.2.1
The same applies to the latest Coupons 2.6.0.2

Coupon description comes from the excerpt field and since you are using $post->post_excerpt; rather than woocommerce api the woocommerce filters won’t be called

[Soft79]

I see what’s happening:

The false && must be removed from the first line of the function:

if ( false && $this->use_wc27 && is_callable( array( $this->object, 'get_description' ) ) )

Will remove it in the next version.

$post->post_excerpt must only be called as a fallback for WC < 3.0
