    Woocommerce filter by attribute for variable product is not working.
    The attribute filter does not take into account the stock status of variations of variable product. It shows the products as instock even though the variable filtered has zero stock value. When we go into the product it is shown as out of stock.This is creating difficulty for my customers and conversation rate is very low. How to fix this issue?

    Hi there,

    By default, WooCommerce only checks whether the *attribute exists*, not whether the underlying *variation* is in stock. There was some changes to account for variation stock levels in a recent version of WooCommerce but this was reverted as it lead to other, more serious, problems on the filtering side of things (more information at https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues/27419).

    When will this issue be resolved?
    Filter By attribute is a basic Requirement for an store selling clothes.
    As of Now my filter by Size and Colour is Not Working. Can I expect a solution at the earliest?.
    In the meantime can you share a code snippet which will do the job?

    I don’t have a fixed that on when that will be revisited – best would be to keep an eye on the link I shared earlier.

    In terms of a solution: It sounds like there might be a miscommunication – everything is working as it should at the moment, meaning the attribute filter only checks whether it has been assigned to a product.

    To check attribute assignment AND stock availability would require either additional custom coding or 3rd party plugins.

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
