Selling Event Tickets?
If you are using plugin for selling Event Tickets then Reserved Stock Pro won’t help you with overselling those.
Event Ticket plugins usually have their own reservation system, or their ticket management doesn’t use the standard WooCommerce Product Inventory (which is required for Reserved Stock Pro). We’ve designed Reserved Stock Pro for the standard product types in WooCommerce, Event Tickets are usually highly customized products from the third-party developers.
You can still use Reserved Stock Pro on standard WooCommerce products. Reservations simply won’t be applied to any third-party ticket products.
Do you have WooCommerce Side Cart?
We often come across custom carts (side, floating, theme implemented) which have issues due to the lack WooCommerce validation code.
Typically you’ll know if the a product reservation is removed from the cart instantly after adding it the cart, or changing the quantity.
- Add a product to your cart
- change the quantity from the cart
- Check if the reserved quantity on the product page & the cart is correct
- If not, then you should read and forward this post to the developer “How to make custom carts compatible?”
Additional Setup
WooCommerce Blocks: Cart & Checkout
The new WooCommerce Cart & Checkout blocks introduces a new flow during the checkout. This flow has alternative hooks which Reserved Stock Pro 1.4.4+ supports.
Since everything is now a block, you’ll have to include the stock message shortcode in the Single Product template yourself. The countdown & reservations all work as standard.
However, we still recommended that you use the shortcodes [woocommerce_cart] and [woocommerce_checkout] instead. The shortcodes are also most reliable and battle tested with all third-party WooCommerce plugin. WooCommerce Blocks are fairly new and still changing.
