Adding a Quick View button

Adding a quick view button which will display a short description of each product has always been a nice-to-have tool for your e-commerce website, which is why we've made it easy with ShopIsle Pro. The quick view button can be implemented by using the  YITH WooCommerce Quick View plugin. If you would like to make further customizations to this feature, the entire documentation of this plugin is available on its landing page on WordPress.org -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/yith-woocommerce-quick-view/.
