Reserved Stock Pro Integration

If you are using Reserved Stock Pro you’ll be able to insert some additional tags within your product stock messages.

• {inventory} – The total amount of stock on a product. (default)
• {reserved} – The amount of stock current reserved by all customers.
• {available} – The amount of free stock customer can reserve.

Create custom stock tags

The real power comes with creating dynamic tags. You can easily add custom tags to you product stock messages with a few lines of code.

Create any dynamic tags via PHP snippet.

Example: Dynamic dates when products are restocked.

Let’s say your product is back in stock every Monday. We can create a dynamic tag called {monday_pickup}. The tag will always display the date of the next Monday. Customers will always be informed and know when to return to your shop with useful contextual stock messages.

We can add any Dynamic tag via PHP snippet.

/**
 * Create a dynamic date tag to use with Stock Status for WooCommerce by Puri.io
 *
 * @param [type] $tags
 * @param [type] $product
 * @return void
 */
function puri_custom_next_monday_pickup( $tags, $product ) {

		// Set the WordPress timezone and find monday.
		$datetime = date_create( '@' . time() );
		$datetime->setTimezone( wp_timezone() );
		$datetime->modify( 'next monday' );
		$datetime->format( 'd/m/Y' );

		$tags['{monday_pickup}'] = $datetime->format( 'd/m/Y' );

		return $tags;
}

add_filter( 'pwss_dynamic_text_tags', 'puri_custom_next_monday_pickup', 10, 2 );
Code language: PHP (php)

How to change stock message color?

Typically your WordPress theme will control the colors of each stock status, however you can override them by adding CSS.

p.stock.out-of-stock {
  color: red;
}

p.stock.in-stock {
  color: green;
}

p.stock.available-on-backorder {
  color: orange;
}Code language: CSS (css)
