NO BUG: Missing Out of Stock text on variations

The “OUT OF STOCK” message does not appear in Bricks Builder.
I have added the element “Product Stock” and it works fine with normal products, but when the variations are managed through ATUM Inventory, then the message is invisible.

Example: https://utvikling1.nygardweb.no/store/marawi-combat-tee/?wmc-currency=USD

If you chose Afghan Sand in size 3xl, then its working and I can add product.
If you try 2xl, it does not show the “out of stock” message - but you cant add the product to cart.

Any idea why?

Hi Krisj,
Thanks so much for your report!

It’s probably because of the third-party plugin that you use for inventory management. But since I don’t know/never used the plugin:

Could you send us access data to your website, a link to this thread, and a short screen recording showing how the plugin works to help@bricksbuilder.io? Then, one of our developers can take a look and possibly offer a solution.

Best regards,

Ps: I deleted your identical “how to” thread because it makes no sense to post the same post in two categories :slight_smile:

Another member has the same issue; “I found the same thing. Nothing to do with your ATUM plugin, also happens with vanilla Woocommerce inventory. Only the “Add to Cart” element will show the stock for variations. Looks like a bug with the Product Stock element.”

So I will try to replicate this myself on a fresh install and test without the ATUM plugin aswell.

Thanks for deleting the other how-to, that was created before I was aware of possible bug and I couldnt figure out how to transfer the original thread.

Will send the details as soon as I have tested.

Hi @Krisj ,

As per our email conversation, this isn’t a bug.

The product stock element is meant for the parent product (if it’s a variable product), which is the same behavior in any WP theme, not just Bricks.

As long as the entire variable product has stock, “Out of stock” text will not be outputted. (Although one of the variations is out of stock)

The product stock element text will not be dynamically updated when you choose a variation.

I marked this thread as “NO BUG”. Thank you

Regards,
Jenn
