WooCommerce doesn’t restore product stock when deleting an order. Stock is only restored when an order is refunded or cancelled.

Attribute stock functions the same as product stock, so it won’t be restored when deleting an order. If you need this functionality you’ll need to use a plugin or custom snippet that does this for product stock, and attribute stock will function accordingly.

can link woocommerce stock to stock attribute?

Attribute stock will be reduced/restored whenever product stock is reduced/restored. They use the same WooCommerce actions.

You can use attribute stock for as little or as much of your stock as you like. Attribute stock works alongside product stock just fine, you don’t need to only use one or the other.

Ok, but my problem is that stock attributes shares stock with ALL products, and I just want to limit inside a product. Per product.

If customer buys product A it decreases stock (in front) for product A, but also B, and C, etc, that have that same stock attribute. I want to limit only inside the product A. I hope I made myself clear.

Maybe it needs just a little customisation… What’s your opinion ?

Thanks in advance.

If it’s not possible for you to manage the stock per product on the products themselves, i.e. with variation stock, then the best alternative with attribute stock is to use Filters.

You will need to create a different attribute stock item for each of your respective products, and then set the Product filter accordingly for each. This way the stock item will only apply to the specified product instead of all products with those attributes.

If your client has multiple products that use the same t-shirt stock such as White – S, Black – M, etc. then you can manage the t-shirt stock with Attribute Stock.

If the t-shirt stock is separate per product and there are no t-shirts shared between products, then you don’t need Attribute Stock for this.

If you’re just looking to make it easier for your client to manage the product stock, take a look at a stock manager like ATUM.

Hi there. It sounds like what you’re looking for is a stock manager. There are many available, both free and paid. My favorite is ATUM. It’s free, well made, and has tons of features.

Our plugin Attribute Stock is more for setting up complex stock associations between products. In fact it doesn’t manage the stock quantities of products directly at all

Best of luck!

Wow! Thank you soo much for taking the time to answer and suggest something for my own good!

Again excellent support! Thanks guyz <3

Hi there,

This is definitely a bit of a tricky problem to solve. It will certainly require a bit of custom code, but I believe it is possible to do.

The way I see it is you essentially have 3 types of stock: Whole salmon, Salmon that has been cut horizontally, and Salmon that has been cut vertically. The idea is that as soon as a salmon has been cut, it’s remaining stock is “moved” from the Whole salmon stock to the respective Cut salmon stock.

With a bit of custom code to handle moving and allocating stock between the different types, it should work pretty seamlessly.

Please contact us via the support tab once you’ve purchased the full version and we’ll be more than happy to provide you with the necessary code.

Oh that would be awesome!! Ok, then ill purchase the plugin and contact you with this message as reference. Thank you so much.

The problem is that WooCommerce Lottery products don’t actually have any stock. Or rather they ignore any associated stock, and do not display it by default.

You could always force the stock quantity to be displayed by overriding the woocommerce/single-product/add-to-cart/lottery.php template, or adding a custom hook such as:

add_action('woocommerce_before_add_to_cart_form', function() {
    global $product;

    if ($product && $product->is_type('lottery')) {
        echo wc_get_stock_html($product);
    }
});

Hi David,

If you’re selling tickets per ride but you need to keep a total of 3000 stock between all rides, then attribute stock can definitely help you.

Resetting the available stock each day however isn’t something that you can do by default. But this can easily be added in with a short PHP snippet.

Please feel free to message us via the support tab if you’d like us to assist you with this.

Hi there. You can add your stock items under the Products > Attribute Stock menu. In the match rules section you’ll be able to select the appropriate attribute(s).

Please feel free to send us a message via the Support tab and we’ll be happy to set up an example for you on our demo site.

Hi @hlai85. The stock count will indeed show on the product page with the paid version. This, along with over-purchase prevention, is the only difference between the paid and lite versions.

Attribute Stock has not been tested with Polylang. However, Attribute Stock is fully translatable and also does not have much frontend text to translate in any case.

If there’s something specific you’re having trouble with, please contact us via the Support tab with more detail so we can look into it further for you.

Yes it is 100% compatible. WooCommerce 4.6 adds no breaking changes, so compatibility is the same as 4.5 for most plugins.

With our plugin, you can link product stock together by making them all use the same attribute stock. It is not dependent on SKUs.

Unfortunately multisite synchronisation is not possible at this time.

Unfortunately not. Attribute stock is separate to product stock, so you would need a custom integration to make the sync service work with it.

thanks! if i use the quantity multiplier in attribute stock will this update the stock remaining on the individual product?

Yes, it can. But only if you use attribute stock instead of managing stock on the product itself. If the product is managing stock, its quantity will be separate from your attribute stock and the quantity multiplier will not apply. I hope that makes sense

thanks

My sincere apologies for the delayed reply. I replied to the CodeCanyon email notification thinking it was a support email! They really need to make them not look so similar…

To answer your questions:

1) Yes, the “insufficient stock” message can be modified or disabled by adding a custom filter to your site’s code (or with a plugin like Code Snippets). I’m more than happy to assist with this if you are not comfortable writing PHP.

2) This is completely independent of Attribute Stock. By default WooCommerce doesn’t reduce any stock until an order has been checked out, and customer carts are not “aware” of each other. This is usually the desired behaviour otherwise you could have a customer add 100 items to their cart with no intention of buying, leaving no stock for other customers to add to their carts.

However, if this is the behaviour you want, you can use a plugin like WooCommerce Cart Stock Reducer which is fully compatible with Attribute Stock.

If you need any further info, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Ok yeah, that does make it a bit more complicated. Unfortunately attribute stock doesn’t work with custom attributes, so I’m afraid the only way to do this with our plugin would be to add global attributes for each of the dates.

Perhaps as an alternative you could use one variation per date with “Any” payment option, and see if there’s a plugin that will allow you to use a different price depending on the payment option selected. Or else look at hiring a developer to add this in for you.

So I went ahead and purchased the plugin. And everything was working as expected until I viewed the shop/archive pages. The entire layout breaks with a critical error when I the plugin is enabled. I suspect it could be some conflict with the Divi builder because the backend themebuilder also breaks with the plugin enabled. Wondering if I could get you to have a look?

Thank you.

Sorry to hear you’re running into issues. Please could you send the error message and URL via the Support tab so we can get this sorted out for you.

Sure it does. In many cases it can also replace Product Bundles

Thanks for the purchase!

It depends on your use case, but for normal variation matching you won’t need Match all. You probably only need Limit product stock which is enabled by default in the paid version, but not available in the lite version.

Thank you very much! Great support!!

You’re welcome

Hi @dgdeivid, we still haven’t heard from you. Were you still having issues or did you manage to get it resolved?

Hi @MewzPlugins the problem has been solved with the latest update of the theme I use (flatsome). Thanks for the help.

That’s great news. Glad you could get the issue sorted out

Thank you very much Marco! It has been a pleasure sir
