Joinery Back-in-Stock Alerts

When a product is out of stock, Joinery Back-in-Stock Alerts adds a short form under it: “Out of stock. Want an email when it’s back?” For variable products, customers choose which out-of-stock option they want.

• When you restock (by hand, by import, or when a refund puts stock back), everyone waiting gets one email in your WooCommerce email design, with a link to the product.
• Emails go out in the background, 50 at a time, so restocking a popular product never slows your shop down.
• WooCommerce → Stock alerts lists what customers are waiting for, most wanted first, so you know what to restock.
• Works with classic and block themes, needs no setup, and uses your theme’s own styles. No JavaScript.
• Keeps bots out with a hidden field and a limit per visitor, without a captcha. Works with page caching.

Privacy Joinery Back-in-Stock Alerts doesn’t contact any external service and doesn’t track you or your customers. It stores the email address, the product and when someone asked, sends one email, and deletes the request 30 days after sending it. Every email has a link to delete the request. It works with WordPress’s personal data export and erasure tools and suggests text for your privacy policy. To limit requests, it keeps a hash of the visitor’s IP address for an hour; the address itself is never stored.
