Products getting -5 on stock

Hi @jamesgol, thanks for the quick reply!

In fact, i use the “WooCommerce – Abandon Cart Lite” to clear all carts, but even cleared, the itens dont change back. All the store has only one item to sell, so i guess this is cleary a bug, since there is no way to someone add more than one item to the cart.

Ok, it made the ghost carts go away, but the products still with the negative state and out of the stock. I just changed it back to In Stock 1 .

off: about the other issue in the other topic. I guess that would solve all my problems.

Let me explain:

I have a shop that 99,99% of the products stock is 1.

Every time a product goes live, people come to the site and try to buy.

They even wait for the timer runs out to see if the product is avaliable or if it was purchased by someone else.

In the past it was ok to return the products to stock manualy after the people abandon their itens on their carts. But now this is becoming “not ok”.

Then i notice that the plugin just clear the cart session if the owner is on the page or returns after the time runs out.

So im searching for days for a way to clear the cart session after the owner of the cart goes out the site. Maybe some js + php would do it.

Im thinking in trigger the function that clear the cart with a JS who detect the page is closed. But im no expert on this things and im bit of lost now.

Sure it is, but the timer today is kinda tricky because it depends of the user to remain on the site to expire. Right?

Yes, but the item just go back to the stock if the user that have the item on his cart:

A) stays on the site till the countdown ends
B) returns to the site after the countdown ends

Im using this function right now:

add_action( 'init', 'woocommerce_clear_cart_url' );
function woocommerce_clear_cart_url() {
global $woocommerce;

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] === '/') { 
    $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart(); 
}
}

I just need to find how trigger this at the time the user leaves the page.

Im trying javascript beforeunload, but i dont want an dialog message.

I’ll keep trying this javascript for some time, and then move to ajax if the js doesnt work.

Hi @jamesgol, im sorry but your wrong.

I made an local wordpress instalation, two plugins: Woocommerce and yours and the storefront theme.

I’ve created the product and setted the timer to 5 minutes.

With one browser in private mode, i clicked “buy” on the product and the timer started.

Then i close the browser and waited for more than 5 minutes. When i came back, with another sesion of the private mode, the product still doesnt got avaliable.

This is the message it was showing: This item is not available at this time due to pending orders. ( ps: i didnt proceed to the checkout, just added on cart ).

Then i came to the backend and saw that the product was in stock, but also was on someone’s cart.

Resume: the product doesnt come back to the stock and leave the cart after the timer has ended.
