## Description

RestockRadar for WooCommerce is a lightweight plugin that enhances your store’s 
inventory management by providing automatic email notifications for stock changes.

#### Key Features

 * **Admin Out-of-Stock Alerts**: Automatically notifies store administrators when
   products go out of stock
 * **Low Stock Warnings**: Get notified when products fall below your specified 
   threshold with sales velocity analysis
 * **Customer Back-in-Stock Notifications**: Allows customers to subscribe for notifications
   when out-of-stock products become available again
 * **Customizable Messages**: Fully customize all notification text, email subjects,
   and form messages
 * **Rich Product Information**: Detailed product data in notifications including
   sales history, categories, pricing, and stock analysis
 * **Smart Duplicate Prevention**: Prevents sending duplicate notifications with
   intelligent tracking
 * **Clean Email Templates**: Professional HTML email templates with product images
   and actionable insights
 * **Secure Subscription Forms**: AJAX-powered forms with nonce verification and
   rate limiting
 * **Variable Product Support**: Works with both simple and variable products

#### How It Works

 1. When a product’s stock falls below your threshold, admins receive a low stock warning
    with sales velocity analysis
 2. When a product goes completely out of stock, admins receive a detailed notification
    with full product information
 3. Customers see a customizable subscription form on out-of-stock product pages with
    pricing information
 4. When products are restocked, all subscribed customers receive notification emails
    automatically
 5. The plugin intelligently tracks notification status to prevent duplicate emails
    while allowing re-notifications for significant changes
