Product description pages bulk update

Product description pages bulk update

Hello, I have a trouble with product pages.

I'm planing to use free Trade theme.

 

I have imported few thousand products from eBay to Shopify with help of inkFrog app. Everything would be good but inkfrog app didn't had an option to skip html and import text only.

 

Now all product pages look awful, here is he link to one of the products, I hope it opens for you, you can see that layout due to eBay template is a disaster: 

https://tomsgrocery.com/products/2-estrella-butter-salt-flavor-potato-chips-european-snacks-crisps-n...

 

So my question is, how can I quickly update all product descriptions in bulk and remove all the pictures and styling from description, and just leave a plain text there. I have tried exporting them to csv but this option didn't work for me as there's a tone of code in each product, and text to column option in xls just can't sort them.

 

I've been googling all day, and I noticed that some certain updates can be done via template liquid or css files, but I'm not sure which part of the code I should update, and what should be the update line.

 

Is there anything that can be done here so I wouldn't need to update 2000 listing each one by hand.

If you want to remove the product descriptions of every product in your store you can go to Products  then select all the products and click bulk edit. From there you can remove every product description. I hope this helps!

To address the issue of the text overlapping with the product itself, here's what you can do:

1. Go to 'Online Store' -> Themes -> Select the 3 dots (...) -> Edit Code

2. In the Assets Folder locate file named as ('base.css' or 'theme.css'  or 'style.css' ) and add the below code at the bottom of the file 

 

 

 

.product__description{
   display: none;
}

When adding this code, it hides whole product description. It didn't remove the overlapping down below pictures, it just turned off whole description.

Meanwhile what I need to do is to hide all styling in description, like pictures or fonts, I need to leave plain text only.

Is there any code that could ignore all html and leave the text only?

Or at least is there any option to fix this overlapping?
