 * Such a strange problem, if a product variation is no longer available and there
   is a setting in the woocommerce to hide products that are not available, then
   such variations are still loaded in the store, but for a second. This is clearly
   visible if you update the page. You can see all the options for the product and
   then they disappear, but it is striking. I thought the problem was in the theme,
   but changing the theme to the standard situation did not change. Please clarify
   this is normal woocommerce behavior?

 * Hi [@tores54](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tores54/)
 * Thanks for reahcing out!
 * If I understand you correctly, sold out product variations on your site are still
   being displayed even after enabling the option to hide out of stock products 
   under **WooCommerce > Settings > Inventory**, correct?
 * This is definitely not the intended behavior of WooCommerce, and I apologize 
   for any confusion this may have caused.
 * It looks like a third-party plugin or your theme might be causing the conflict
   here.
 * For us to investigate this further, can you please try to switch to the [default Storefront theme](https://woocommerce.com/storefront/)
   and only WooCommerce plugin is enabled and see if this works?
 * If so, then this kind of problem is usually caused by your theme or a third-party
   plugin present on your site. We can run a conflict test to verify this. I’d recommend
   cloning your site to a staging environment and performing the tests described
   on this [guide](https://woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/) 
   without modifying your live site or impacting customers. Many hosts provide staging
   facilities, so it’s worth checking in with them. It’s also possible to do it 
   using the free [WP Staging](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/) plugin.
 * If this was caused by a third-party plugin present on your site, it would be 
   best to reach out to the developers for further assistance here.
 * If this did not resolve the issue, please share your **System Status Report**,
   that will help us further troubleshoot.
 * You can find it via `WooCommerce > Status`. Select `Get system report` and then`
   Copy for support`. Once you’ve done that, you can paste it into your reply here.
 * If you could also provide the **fatal error logs** (if any) under `WooCommerce
   > Status > Logs`.
 * You could copy and paste your reply here or paste it via [https://gist.github.com/](https://gist.github.com/)
   and send the link here.
 * Let us know how it goes!
