    When a product is out of stock, there is no indication of this on the shop page, the out of stock label does not appear.

    The buy now/ add to cart button also vanished from the single product page.

    1: Enable the out of stock feature to show on product placeholders

    2: Enable the buy now / add to cart button when product is out of stock , but make the button unclickable.

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    As explained “When a product is out of stock, there is no indication of this on the shop page, the out of stock label does not appear.”

    1: 1/ Archive products builder > edit template > settings of products element > enable stock status

    already done prior to asking for help, not working, which is why topic was opened.

    2: Is an option, its already set like as default on my other website using animal theme. Don’t send me a link asking for money lol. This feature is already available, do you need screenshots for confirmation????

    The of stock status here does not put the cross through the product image, instead it says “out of stock’ under the product. This is not required because I will be using the stock line.

    The product must have an X through it if out of stock.

    Hello,

    Please note that our theme does not include an option to display a cross through the product image on the shop page. It seems there may have been a misunderstanding, and you might be confusing XStore with another theme.

    As an alternative, we recommend the following solution:
    Navigate to “Archive Products Builder” > “Edit Template” > “Settings of Products Element” > Enable “Stock Status”.
    Once enabled, this label can be styled using custom CSS code, for example – https://prnt.sc/kkjJhWKiLR_V

    .etheme-product-grid-item .stock.out-of-stock {
        position: absolute;
        text-align: center;
        background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .9);
        z-index: 1;
        margin-bottom: 0;
        font-size: .85rem;
        text-transform: uppercase;
        color: var(--et_dark-color);
        left: 50%;
        top: -100%;
        -webkit-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
        transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
        padding: 7px 14px;
    }

    We hope this information is helpful.

    You seem to always a nonsense answer, I wouldn’t be suggesting things that arentt possible.

    If there’s a setting that doesnt do that it’s supposed to, then I come to the forums. You have, on multiple occasions, given me the answer to say that things are not possible, when it is.

    if I get answers like this again, I won’t waste my time bickering with you about it, ill just open another topic and ask someone else to answer.

    Every single answer you give is a waste of time replying to such messages. Not another person who replies on here wastes as much of my time as you.

    Thanks for this. however it appears very messy.

    Screenshots of mobile and desktop

    also, how can I change text colour of it.

    I tried changing

    color: var(–et_dark-color);

    to

    color: var(–et_white-color);
    or
    color: var(–et_light-color);

    but it turns grey, not white.

    thanks

    Hello @Terpsauce,

    The color variables you mentioned are not predefined in the general styles. This is why the color appears as grey – if a specific CSS variable is not defined, it automatically inherits the body color. In such cases, you can manually specify the color in any format, as demonstrated in the following example: https://prnt.sc/y7o6nUN4H4Cp.

    Additionally, as per your request to apply a strikethrough effect on out-of-stock products, we have implemented the following custom CSS for you: https://prnt.sc/yGrr5DqeD5Q4. The final result can be seen here: https://prnt.sc/2Zl65gJOhqEy.

    If you were referring to something else, please provide us with more details regarding the specific outcome you would like to achieve. We will be happy to assist you further.

    Hello Jack,

    1: Thanks for providing the code for changing the colour of the text. This ‘Out of stock” option is suitable for the products.

    2: The strikethrough I was referring to, is in regards to the images swatches (images 1) . You can see that the strikethrough effect is also fading the image, which makes the image almost invisible. Id like the strikethrough to be applied, but the image behind it must has less opacity, so that it can still be seen behind the strikethrough.

    3: You have appeared to have missed the screenshots I provided in the last message. It shows the position of the “out of stock” on the product placeholder. The position of this is not the same on each product, it appears to move position based on the lines for the product title, if 2 lines, it moved up, if 3 lines it moves up further. Id like the “out of stock” to remain in the centre of the image on the product placeholder at all times. Ive attached 2 screenshots for this.

    Hello @Terpsauce,

    We have made some improvements to the custom CSS for the following widget: https://prnt.sc/yQCFXy3_i2EV. As a result, the updated version now appears as follows: https://prnt.sc/_CLZJQ5f_pKv.

    However, please note that providing customizations based on your specific requests falls outside the scope of our basic support, as we have previously mentioned. We appreciate your understanding and adherence to our support guidelines and Envato’s policy.

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    Hello,

    Ive reviewed the changes.

    1: The ‘cross’ that was misunderstood previously is still visible on out of stock products. Please remove it.

    2: The layout of the “out of stock” is still not correct on mobile, screenshot attached. It shows misplacement on the product placeholders.

    Dear @Terpsauce,

    We have removed the cross-line from the product images and improved the positioning of the out-of-stock label across different devices. All modifications have been implemented in the Custom CSS section of the Archive Products widget.

    You can review the changes here: https://prnt.sc/rX-YozRHenFi.

    Please take a moment to check and let us know if everything looks as expected.

    Dear @Terpsauce,

    Thank you for your response. However, we noticed that the screenshots were not included in your reply. Upon reviewing the shop page on a mobile device, we found that the “Out of Stock” label is displayed correctly, as shown in the following screenshot: https://prnt.sc/3iTAb6PLvttP.

    If you are still experiencing an issue where the label is displayed incorrectly, kindly provide us with the URL of the affected page along with details of the device you are using to check it. This will help us investigate the matter further.

    We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to your response.

    3 Screenshots attached, shows the placement on mobile.

    In each screenshot I have ensured that the Quick View button is active, this will let you see the issue more clearly. The “out of stock should remain centred.

    These screenshots are from the same page in the shop.
    You can see that the “out of stock” moves down slightly in each pic.

    Image 1 can see few pixels gape between “quick view” and “out of stock”

    Image 2 can see less space between them

    Image 3 shows further movement, ‘out of stock’ now overlaps ‘quick view’

    Please remain that “out of stock” remains in the centre of the palceholder.

    Hello , use checked again and still not correct.

    Two screenshots, two products on separate rows. I have ensured that each screenshot shows the quick view for reference. The position of ‘out of stock’ is not centred.

    I am using iPhone 12 Pro on google chrome, however, I am looking for this change to be true on all resolutions, not just my own.

    Dear @Terpsauce,

    As mentioned at the beginning of this discussion, there is no built-in option to display the “Out of Stock” badge over the product image (refer to our previous response: https://www.8theme.com/topic/out-of-stock-products-are-not-showing-as-out-of-stock/#post-436914). However, we provided a workaround, noting that it may not be ideal for all devices. We also suggested that you adjust the provided custom CSS according to your specific needs.

    Please note that, in accordance with Envato’s support policy, we do not offer additional customization services through our support forum. However, we made an exception in your case. It now appears that you are requesting further free customization to ensure compatibility across all devices. Unfortunately, we are unable to fine-tune every pixel shift for each device you test, as this falls outside the scope of our standard support services.

    Since we have already provided guidance on the areas of the custom CSS that can be adjusted (https://www.8theme.com/topic/out-of-stock-products-are-not-showing-as-out-of-stock/#post-438379), we encourage you to make minor modifications (e.g., adjusting by 2-3 pixels) and test accordingly. If you require further customization beyond this, you may submit a request for additional customization via the following link: (https://www.8theme.com/account/#etheme_customization_panel).

    We appreciate your understanding and adherence to our support policies and privacy guidelines.

    1: As mentioned at the beginning of this discussion, there is no built-in option to display the “Out of Stock” badge over the product image

    Yes there is, this was demonstrated in animals theme. And changes were implemented as a result., The changes are relected on some parts of the website, but are different in some section.

    2: However, we made an exception in your case.

    The exception? To provide half a completed job isn’t really suitable because its not resolved anything, and has a created another loose end for me, which isn’t convenient.

    3: 2/ There is no such option, unfortunately. Rose Tyler.

    This answer was also invalid, because the feature was there as default.

    4: To provide custom css and take hours of my time to resolve something, then drop out before its finished isn’t the result im looking for.

    5: ‘Out of stock’ should be centred to product placeholder.

    Screenshot from animals theme, you are not talking truth here.

    Screenshot shows ‘out of stock’ in the centre of the placeholder. This was done by theme, by DEFAULT. NO CUSTOMISATION DONE BY ME OR YOUR TEAM.

    Dear @Terpsauce,

    We kindly ask you to provide us with the URL of the demo in question. It is likely that the demo utilizes the basic shop layout, whereas your website is using a custom-built shop page. The Elementor Archive Products widget does not include such options because it employs custom structures that allow you to tailor the product content to your specific needs.

    If you prefer to use the basic layout, where the “out of stock” labels are displayed, you can simply deactivate the Archive Products Builder from the XStore Builder panel.

    Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.
