Description
StoreFixKit Back In Stock Notifier adds a lightweight stock alert workflow for WooCommerce stores.
The free plugin captures shopper email requests on sold-out products, prevents duplicate active subscriptions for the same item, and sends one restock email when the product or variation returns to stock.
The plugin works entirely on the merchant’s WordPress site and does not require a StoreFixKit account.
Core features:
- Back-in-stock form on sold-out simple products.
- Variation-aware stock alert form for variable products.
- Duplicate prevention for active subscribers.
- Unsubscribe token links for shopper control.
- Admin subscriber and delivery log screens.
- Email sender, subject, and intro text settings.
External services:
- None. The plugin does not send subscriber data, site data, or usage data to StoreFixKit or any other third-party service.
- Restock and test emails are sent through the WordPress
wp_mail()function and the mail transport configured by the site owner.
