stock Product inventory

Hi, I want to make it so that if there is a product whose variation is not in stock, it will not let you choose the variations, it will put a red bar on them or it will simply not let you choose the product.. At the moment, it lets you choose the color or the size, and only after you have chosen does it tell you that it is not in stock.. I want in advance that he will not let the customer mark options that are not in stock..

Hello,

Navigate to Products > Attributes > edit attribute > Choose the disabled swatch. The disabled Swatch style is for the variants of the Products which are disabled not for the Out of Stock variants. So, you need to have the variant of the Product not checked with the Enable option on it and then the Disabled Swatch style will work accordingly. See these images for reference:

Hi yes, but it still lets me choose sizes that I marked as out of stock and inactive..

I want the size to appear but not let the customer choose it..

Hello,

Can you please share the product page url where you are using swatches. Also share the wp logins details so i will further check on your site and give you a possible solution.

Best Regards.

Hey, try now..

Hello,

Yes, it is how WooCommerce works by default and we can’t change this. WooCommerce allows customers to select variations even if they are out of stock, and only then informs them of the stock status.

Best regards

Hello,

I am also dealing with the same issue.

Is there any other alternative?
Can we add manually out of stock products in shop page even if the “Hide out of stock items from the catalog” is enabled?

Thanks,

Hello,

Unfortunately, this behavior is related to how WooCommerce handles out-of-stock variations by default. WooCommerce allows customers to select variations even if they are out of stock, and only then informs them of the stock status.

To implement more advanced stock handling, you might need custom development or a third-party plugin that offers enhanced stock management features.

If you have further questions or need additional assistance, please let us know.

Kind Regards
