    Hi there, using your plugin, I’m trying to set it up so that for each product I can choose 4 different stock status messages:

    1. In Stock – Purchase OK
    2. In Stock At Supplier – Purchase OK
    3. On Backorder – No Cart button, Enquiry to send eta enquiry
    4. Out of stock – No cart button, Enquiry to send enquiry if we receive something similar

    Is this possible with your plugin? I installed it and under the usual Inventory tab I still only see the usual 3 options of:
    In Stock
    Out of Stock
    On backorder

    I have played with the options in the main settings tab for custom stock, and in the custom stock status tab in the product page, but cannot make it work. Should be kinda simple right?

    PLEASE can you help?! Than kyou!

    1. Do you want to add additional option as “In Stock At Supplier” like following screenshot
      https://drive.google.com/file/d/1we2nj9msfZHnRBCpdL5G6dKXIYflG3Bk/view?usp=drivesdk
    2. If yes then how do you want to display the stock status when it’s from “stock quantity” and “allow backorder” option like following screenshot
      https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SiyUk0Pj5PNA5FJr7nx75OdQ9cRnANwJ/view?usp=drivesdk
    3. It has only three options allow,allow but notify and do not allow.
    4. So if the product has quantity more than 0 it is “in stock” else “out of stock”. This is the default woocommerce functionality.
    5. Please explain in detail about “how do you want to display the stock status on frontend ?”

      Thanks

    Thanks so much for your reply. I have just bought your pro plugin – a good buy for $15 I think. It allows for setting the text to say whatever I like so I think I have it sorted – and the bulk edit option will be a massive time saver for my client.

    However – how do you achieve the screenshot drop down menu where there are four options instead of the standard 3?

    And so:

    In Stock – Add to cart button is there
    In Stock at the Supplier – Add to cart button is there
    On Backorder – no Add to Cart button
    Out of stock – no Add to cart button

    Is that possible with your plugin – just to have those four options?

    I get it that with the pro plugin I can input custom stock status text for each individual product by going into the Stock Status tab on the Woocommerce product admin page, and end up with a similar result, but quicker for my client to just do this via the Inventory tab and select what they want.

    Any thoughts?

    We added the 4th option statically for demo purpose, and what actually you going to do with the 4th option, please explain it little more.

    Thanks

    My client wanted 4 options for stock status messages as I said above:

    In Stock – Add to cart button is there
    In Stock at the Supplier – Add to cart button is there
    On Backorder – no Add to Cart button
    Out of stock – no Add to cart button

    I feel we can achieve this with your plugin. I was just saying that it would be great having this under the Inventory tab as a radio button option so all my client has to do is check that radion button, rather than go down to the Custom Stock Status tab and write it in there.

    But all, good. I’m happy that we can still achieve what we want with relative ease. Thank you for your responsive support. I will close this thread as resolved now.
