## Description

Every “out of stock” product is a lost sale — unless you can tell the customer when
it returns. **ReadyGo Back in Stock** adds an _“Email me when back in stock”_ form
to any out-of-stock product, collects the waitlist, and emails everyone automatically
the moment you restock.

Unlike most back-in-stock plugins, there is **no cap on notifications** and **no
paywall** on the core feature. It is built by [ReadyGo Tools](https://readygotools.com),
a division of MKB Platinum.

#### Why you’ll like it

 * **Zero setup** — the signup form appears automatically on out-of-stock products.
   Nothing to place, no shortcode required.
 * **Automatic restock emails** — set a product back in stock and every waiting 
   customer is emailed. Large waitlists are sent in the background so your store
   never slows down.
 * **Simple and variable products** — works with both. On variable products the 
   form appears for the specific out-of-stock variation, and only those customers
   are notified.
 * **Waitlist dashboard** — see exactly who is waiting for each product (great demand
   intelligence for restocking decisions), with a one-click Remove for any entry.
 * **Fully customizable wording** — edit the form heading, text, button, success
   message, email subject and email body, with `{product}`, `{url}` and `{site}`
   tags.
 * **Built-in spam protection** — a hidden honeypot field plus per-IP rate limiting,
   both on by default. No CAPTCHA account needed.
 * **Fast & lightweight** — front-end assets load only on product pages that actually
   show the form.
 * **No AI, no scraping, no external services** — everything runs on your own site.
   Nothing is sent anywhere.

#### Works with your theme and builder

The form attaches to WooCommerce’s standard product output, so it works with classic
themes (Astra, Neve, GeneratePress, Kadence, OceanWP, Storefront and more) and with
builders such as Blocksy, Elementor and the block editor.

#### Reliable delivery

WordPress cannot reliably send email on its own. For dependable restock notifications,
pair this plugin with any SMTP mailer. The plugin will remind you if a notification
fails to send.

## Installation

 1. Make sure WooCommerce is installed and active.
 2. In your WordPress admin, go to **Plugins  Add New**, search for “ReadyGo Back in
    Stock”, and click **Install** then **Activate**. (Or upload the plugin ZIP under**
    Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin**.)
 3. That’s it. The signup form now appears automatically on any out-of-stock product.
 4. Optional: open **RGT Back in Stock  Settings** to customize the wording, the restock
    email, and spam protection.

To test it: set a product to out of stock (quantity 0 with backorders disabled, 
or status “Out of stock”), visit the product page, and you’ll see the form. Sign
up, then set the product back in stock — the waiting email is sent automatically.

## FAQ

### The form isn’t showing on my out-of-stock product. Why?

The form only appears when a product is genuinely out of stock. If you manage stock
quantity, set it to 0 **and** set “Allow backorders” to “Do not allow” — otherwise
the product is “on backorder” (still purchasable) and no form is shown. If you don’t
manage stock quantity, set the product’s stock status to “Out of stock”.

### Does it work with variable products?

Yes. The form appears when a shopper selects an out-of-stock variation, and only
that variation’s customers are notified when it comes back.

### Does it require any external service, API key, or account?

No. The waitlist is stored on your own site and emails are sent by WordPress. There
is no third-party service and nothing is sent off your site.

### My customers aren’t receiving the restock emails.

This is almost always because WordPress can’t send email reliably without SMTP. 
Install and configure any SMTP mailer. The plugin shows a reminder in the admin 
if a notification fails to send.

### Where do I see who is waiting?

Under **RGT Back in Stock  Waitlist**. Each product lists the waiting customers’
email addresses, when they signed up, and the current stock status. You can remove
any entry.

### Can I change the wording of the form and the email?

Yes. Everything is editable under **RGT Back in Stock  Settings** — the form heading,
text, button, success message, email subject and email body. In the email you can
use `{product}`, `{url}` and `{site}` tags.

### How does it stop spam signups?

Two protections run automatically: a hidden honeypot field that traps bots, and 
per-IP rate limiting (adjustable under Settings). Neither needs any account or CAPTCHA.

### What happens after a customer is notified?

Their signup is marked as notified and removed from the active waitlist. If the 
product later goes out of stock again, they can join the new waitlist to be notified
again.

### Is it compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?

Yes. The plugin declares HPOS compatibility.
