Remove SOLD OUT text from one Collections Page

Topic summary

Issue: A collection page links products to an external site, but setting inventory to zero causes images to fade and display “SOLD OUT.” The request was to keep quantity at zero yet remove the sold-out state for that specific collection.

Initial suggestion: Use conditional theme logic to hide the sold-out badge only for that collection. The requester noted they’re using an affiliate app for redirection and don’t edit code.

Resolution: Enable “Continue selling when out of stock” on the product variant in Shopify Admin. Steps: Products > select product > Variant section > check “Continue selling when out of stock.” A screenshot was provided to locate the setting. This keeps items purchasable/active in the collection without the SOLD OUT overlay despite zero inventory.

Outcome: Confirmed working by the requester. No code changes required. Thread resolved.

Hi @rhines44

You can assign quantity zero but make sure to Continue selling even without stocks.

  1. From you Admin page, go to Products

  2. At the variant section, then find the box Continue selling when out of stocks
