 * I’m having an issue with stock level threshold showing up incorrectly on some
   products. In the Woocommerce settings I have the low stock threshold set to 1
   and out of stock set to 0 and the product itself has the same threshold set for
   the individual product. Problem is that on the front end it shows 10 for the 
   low stock which is actually the total left in stock. The link provided is a simple
   product there are others that show 2 left in stock even though it is set to 1.
   I have updated the theme and Woocommerce along with wordpress (5.1.1). I don’t
   see where anyone else is having this issue so not sure what could be causing 
   it. It works fine on variable products.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flow-stock-threshold%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * It looks like that you probably misunderstood the purpose of “Low stock threshold”.
   It helps notify admins when product stocks are too low.

 * “10 left” or “2 left!” in your link (or in the following screenshot) seem from
   your theme itself. And they’re actually a feature of your theme. I suggest contacting
   the theme author/support to get help about this.
