Quantity Message Shortcode

Some themes remove the hook our plugin uses to display this message. If you’ve activated the message and don’t see it on your product page you can use the following shortcode to manually display it.

PHP Usage: do_shortcode(‘[wpbo_quantity_message]’);

Using Out of Stock Functionality

If your product is under inventory control, you change your quantity rules based on whether your product is in our out of stock. To do this simply fill in the rule values like you have always done and when once your product it out of stock, the out of stock values will take the in stock value’s place.

Integration with Woo’s CSV Import Suite

Adding rules on a per-product basis using Woo’s CSV Import Suite is as simple as adding a few additional meta values to your import file. When exporting data be sure to ‘include hidden meta data’ or these meta values won’t appear.

Function	Meta Value/Column Head	Acceptable Values
Override Rules	‘meta:_wpbo_override’	‘on’ will override rules with your per-product meta values otherwise leave this value empty
Minimum Quantity	‘meta:_wpbo_minimum’	Any positive integer
Maximum Quantity	‘meta:_wpbo_maximum’	Any positive integer
Minimum Quantity (Out of Stock)	‘meta:_wpbo_minimum_oos’	Any positive integer
Maximum Quantity (Out of Stock)	‘meta:_wpbo_maximum_oos’	Any positive integer
Step Value	‘meta:_wpbo_step’	Any positive integer
