App that hides products and variants with low inventory levels.

Hi,

I’m looking for an app that automatically hides out-of-stock products. It should also have a threshold setting that allows you to hide products with low inventory levels. I know there are several apps that can handle this, and I’m currently using Stockyphi.

The challenge is that I also want the app to work with products that have multiple variants. For example, if a product has 3 variants and one of the variants has a low inventory level (for example, 1 or 2 in stock), I want that variant to be hidden. Only variants with inventory levels higher than the threshold should be visible on that product.

Of course, products that are hidden should be published again when they are back in stock (above the threshold).

I’ve found apps that can hide variants with low stock levels (e.g., Camouflage: Hide Sold Variants), but these apps do not work for products with only one variant :slightly_smiling_face: Is there no app that handles this for all products, whether they have only one variant or multiple variants? It seems unnecessary to have two different apps to manage this.

Honestly, I would recommend adding custom Liquid code to your theme. You would just have to add a few if blocks.

Hi, and thanks for the response. I tested it and paid a Shopify partner to set it up, but the solution ended up being buggy and didn’t work fully with all the if-conditions, so I eventually had to restore the code after he gave up. I’d rather pay for an app that scans inventory levels than modify Liquid in this case, if that’s possible, of course.

Hi @entranced :grin:

This is Ellie from BOGOS (formerly Free Gifts by Secomapp), #1 Promotion App on Shopify featuring Free Gift, Discounts & Bundles.

One app I found, Hide Out Of Stock & Push Down, allows you to hide or push down low-stock, unavailable, or out-of-stock products based on their stock levels.

You can consider try it out or search for the keyword “Hide Out Of Stock” to explore more options.

If my answer is helpful, I would appreciate it if you could give me a Like or accept it as a Solution!

Wish you all the best with the business,

Thanks Ellie for the tip, I have emailed their support and asked if the app meets my needs.

Hello @entranced ,

It seems that in this case, you may need to extend the functionality of an existing Shopify app or develop a custom app from scratch for your needs.

If you need any assistance, please, don’t hesitate to drop me a line.

Best regards,
Anastasia

I’m glad it’s helpful! If the app works, appreciate it if you could give me a Like or accept it as a Solution! :blush:

They offer this feature in this app, but you might need to message them if you want to also hide products.

I had a similar request and they did it on the same day after editing my theme:
