 * Hello
    while I was testing the plugin I noticed 2 issues:
 * 1. The shortcode [display_stock_alert_form] doesn’t work.
    I created a test page
   with the shortcode inside but the stock alert form doesn’t show [https://prnt.sc/vWGf7msm7dBr](https://prnt.sc/vWGf7msm7dBr)
 * 2. The stock alert form doesn’t show inside the out of stock product
 * The alert container is there but I see this [https://prnt.sc/XfL5o63G_OD2](https://prnt.sc/XfL5o63G_OD2)
   by default
    although the plugin is activated [https://prnt.sc/TxDF7xf3rxrw](https://prnt.sc/TxDF7xf3rxrw)
 * Regards

 * Hi [@visionoptika](https://wordpress.org/support/users/visionoptika/), our replies
   are inline :
 * 1. The shortcode [display_stock_alert_form] doesn’t work.
    I created a test page
   with the shortcode inside but the stock alert form doesn’t show [https://prnt.sc/vWGf7msm7dBr](https://prnt.sc/vWGf7msm7dBr)
 * >> The shortcode will only work for a single product page.
 * 2. The stock alert form doesn’t show inside the out of stock product
 * The alert container is there but I see this [https://prnt.sc/XfL5o63G_OD2](https://prnt.sc/XfL5o63G_OD2)
   by default
    although the plugin is activated [https://prnt.sc/TxDF7xf3rxrw](https://prnt.sc/TxDF7xf3rxrw)

 * 1. I suppose this means that I am not able to use the shortcode inside a popup
   activated by a custom button below the add to cart.
 * If the answer is positive I can’t use the plugin so it doesn’t matter to solve
   question 2.

 * [@visionoptika](https://wordpress.org/support/users/visionoptika/), As per your
   requirement, you have to add a good amount of custom code to open the model, 
   and hopefully, our shortcode will work.
 * kindly check this and let us know if you need any help from us.

 * Please don’t offer to send or post logon credentials on these forums:
 * `https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines#the-bad-stuff`
 * And, I’ve deleted your offer to login to your user’s site. I’m am 100% sure you
   mean well but please _never ask for OR ACCEPT AN OFFER OF credentials on these
   forums._
 * [https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines/#the-bad-stuff](https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines/#the-bad-stuff)
 * Now for the why: The internet is a wonderful place full of very nice people and
   a few very bad ones. I’m sure everyone here is very nice however, by giving some
   ones keys to your house you are trusting they wont steal anything. Likewise the
   person who takes the keys is now responsible for the house FOREVER.
 * If something was to go wrong, then you the author may well legally become liable
   for damages, which they would not normally have been as their software is provided
   without warranty.
 * **Please be aware that repeatedly asking for credentials will result in us escalating
   this to the plugins team.**
 * It’s never necessary to do that. Here’s why.
 * There are many ways to get information you need and accessing the user’s site
   is not one of them. That’s going too far.
    - Ask for a link to the [http://pastebin.com/](http://pastebin.com/) log of 
      the user’s web server error log.
    - Ask the user to create and post a link to their `phpinfo();` output.
    - Ask the user to install the [Health Check plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/health-check/)
      and get the data that way.
    - Walk the user through [enabling WP_DEBUG and how to log that output to a file and how to share that file.](https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG#WP_DEBUG_LOG_and_WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY)
    - Walk the user through basic troubleshooting steps such and disabling all other
      plugins, clear their cache and cookies and try again.
    - Ask the user for the step-by-step on how they can reproduce the problem.
 * You get the idea.
 * Volunteer support is not easy. But these forums need to a safe place for all 
   users, experienced or new. Accessing their system that way is a short cut that
   will get you into real trouble in these forums.

 * Sure [@sterndata](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sterndata/)
    We will keep
   this in mind.
