All things Shopify and commerce
Hello,
Hi @Gadgetopia2024 👋 Turn off "continue selling when sold out" if that's enabled
https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/inventory
A theme may allow adding sold out quantities to the cart, but the shopify checkout should prevent any order from going through as long as tracking is setup properly.
It's an advanced theme customization to add logic to hide or change how quantity inputs behave, or carts to validate stock, based on changing inventory.
If you need an advanced theme customization then contact me by my email for services.

ALWAYS please provide context, examples: store url, theme name, post url(s) , or any further detail in ALL correspondence.

When you add items to the cart, you have to hit shopify's cart api and they manage this. If you go to the checkout you should see a message there that there is an issue with the inventory.
