## Description

**Back in Stock Notifications for WooCommerce** adds a Subscribe button to out-of-
stock products. When a customer clicks it, a customisable modal form collects their
email (and optionally their name). When the product is back in stock, the plugin
sends them a personalised notification email automatically — or you can trigger 
it manually.

Supports simple and variable products.

#### Main Features

✔️ Subscribe button on out-of-stock product pages (simple & variable)
 ✔️ **Subscribe
button on shop & listing pages** — appears on product tiles in shop, category, search,
and related product sections ✔️ **Button Visibility control** — show on both, single
product page only, shop/listing pages only, or disable entirely ✔️ Customisable 
modal form — title, button text, before/after text ✔️ **Live form preview** — see
the button and modal exactly as customers will, before going live ✔️ Personalised
confirmation and back-in-stock notification emails ✔️ **Send Test Email** — preview
any email template with real product data before sending to customers ✔️ Default
email templates included (ready to use out of the box) ✔️ Merge tags for dynamic
content (name, email, product title, price, URL, quantity) ✔️ Automatically mode—
notifications sent when WooCommerce stock status changes ✔️ Manually mode — trigger
notifications from the product page when you’re ready ✔️ Pause notifications for
specific products ✔️ Filter and search subscriptions by product or email ✔️ Bulk
export subscribers to CSV ✔️ Customisable button colours (background & text) ✔️ 
First & Last Name fields (optional — enable or disable per your preference) ✔️ Duplicate
subscription prevention ✔️ reCAPTCHA v2 to block spam subscriptions ✔️ HubSpot integration—
auto-create or update contacts on every subscription

#### Subscription Form Preview

Click the **Preview** button on the Subscription Form settings page to open a dedicated
preview page. It shows the exact Subscribe button (with your saved colours and text)
on a clean canvas — click it to open the modal and inspect the layout, title, fields,
and before/after text. Submission is disabled so it’s completely safe to test.

#### Send Test Email

Each email template (Confirmation and Back in Stock Notification) has a **Send Test
Email** button. Click it to open a dedicated test page where you can:

 * Search for any product (or select a specific variation)
 * Enter any recipient email (pre-filled with your admin email)
 * Send the email immediately — merge tags are replaced with real product data

The subject is prefixed with `[TEST]` so you can distinguish it from live emails.
Subscriber name tags (`[wsnm-first-name]`, `[wsnm-last-name]`) are substituted with
sample values (John / Doe).

#### Subscriptions

Each subscription stores:

 * First Name (optional)
 * Last Name (optional)
 * Email
 * Status (Waiting, Sent, Paused)
 * Product (Simple or Variable)

Duplicate subscriptions are prevented. If someone with the same email tries to subscribe
to the same product again, a warning message is shown instead.

Subscriptions can be filtered by product, searched by email, and exported in CSV
format from the WordPress admin.

#### Merge Tags

Use these tags in email subject lines and body content:

 * `[wsnm-first-name]` – Subscriber’s first name
 * `[wsnm-last-name]` – Subscriber’s last name
 * `[wsnm-email]` – Subscriber’s email address
 * `[wsnm-product-title]` – Product name (including variation name if applicable)
 * `[wsnm-product-price]` – Product price with currency symbol
 * `[wsnm-product-quantity]` – Available stock quantity, or “unlimited” if unmanaged
 * `[wsnm-product-url]` – Direct link to the product (variation pre-selected for
   variable products)

#### Integrations

**reCAPTCHA v2**

Add a “I’m not a robot” checkbox to the subscribe form to block automated spam submissions.
Requires a free Google reCAPTCHA v2 account. Configure your Site Key and Secret 
Key under Settings  Integrations.

**HubSpot**

Connect to your HubSpot account to automatically create or update a contact every
time someone subscribes:

 * Each subscriber is created as a HubSpot contact (email, first name, last name)
 * If a contact with the same email already exists, it is found and reused — no 
   duplicates
 * A note is attached to the contact with the name of the subscribed product
 * The sync result (contact link or error) is visible on each subscription’s detail
   page in the WordPress admin

To connect: go to Settings  Integrations, enable HubSpot, paste your Private App
token (requires the `crm.objects.contacts.write` scope), and click **Check connection**
to verify.

#### Developer Filters

The plugin exposes the following filters:

 * `wsnm-text-cta` – Override the subscribe button text shown on the product page
 * `wsnm-modal-title` – Override the modal header text
 * `wsnm-modal-form-button` – Override the submit button text inside the modal

#### External Services

This plugin optionally connects to the following third-party services. These connections
are only made when you explicitly enable the corresponding integration in **Settings
Integrations**.

**Google reCAPTCHA v2** (optional)
 Used to verify that subscription form submissions
are made by a human. When enabled, the reCAPTCHA script is loaded from Google’s 
servers and the form response is verified against Google’s API.

 * Service: [Google reCAPTCHA](https://www.google.com/recaptcha/)
 * Data sent: user’s reCAPTCHA response token and IP address
 * Privacy Policy: [https://policies.google.com/privacy](https://policies.google.com/privacy)
 * Terms of Service: [https://policies.google.com/terms](https://policies.google.com/terms)

**HubSpot** (optional)
 Used to automatically create or update a CRM contact when
someone subscribes. Subscriber name, email, and the subscribed product name are 
sent to HubSpot.

 * Service: [HubSpot CRM API](https://developers.hubspot.com/)
 * Data sent: subscriber email address, first name, last name, subscribed product
   name
 * Privacy Policy: [https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy](https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy)
 * Terms of Service: [https://legal.hubspot.com/terms-of-service](https://legal.hubspot.com/terms-of-service)

## FAQ

### Which product types are supported?

Simple and variable products.

### What is manually mode?

Manually mode gives you full control. Notifications are triggered by an administrator
directly from the WooCommerce product edit page. This is the default mode.

### What is automatically mode?

In automatically mode, notifications are sent as soon as a product’s stock status
changes to “in stock” in WooCommerce. You can still pause specific products if needed.

### Can I preview the subscribe form before it goes live?

Yes. Go to **Settings  Subscription Form** and click the **Preview** button. A dedicated
preview page shows the exact button and modal using your current settings. Submission
is disabled so it’s completely safe to use.

### Can I test my email templates?

Yes. On the **Settings  Email Templates** page, each email section has a **Send 
Test Email** button. Select a product, confirm the recipient address, and click 
send — the email is delivered using real product data with a `[TEST]` prefix in 
the subject.

### Can I control where the subscribe button appears?

Yes. Go to **Settings  General** and find the **Button Visibility** option under
Button Style. Choose from: show on both (default), single product page only, shop/
listing pages only, or disabled.

### How do I connect HubSpot?

Go to **Settings  Integrations**, enable the HubSpot toggle, paste your Private 
App token (with the `crm.objects.contacts.write` scope), and click **Check connection**
to verify.
