Back in Stock Notifications

Author: An Do 4138 views

The Back In Stock Notifications extension is used as restock messages to customers who recently expressed interest in an item that was out of stock. They are informed when it becomes available again. Customers are encouraged to return and complete the transaction as a result.

It supports you in creating a form on the product page to receive customers’ emails in case they have further demand. Hence, you have to collect and save customers’ contacts in a list manually to notify them when the product is restocked. The notification email will be sent by you, not automatically.

After the customer fills in the email and submits it, you will receive an email notification to the Sender email that you added in Shopify. Go to Shopify settings -> Store details -> Contact information to see what email it is.

You will have to save this data and contact the customer when the product is available. If you need more advanced functionality, you can consider using third-party apps at the Shopify app store.

Note: When you finish installing the Back in Stock Notification and finish configuration, it will automatically show when you publish. You can use this extension on EComposer Pro and Premium plans. Upgrade now to unlock

Button animation/ Loop time: This may help you set more effects for the button.

Notification: focuses on the messages of the restock alert.

Show preview messages: When you enable this toggle in your editor, it forces the success or error messages to appear on your screen immediately. It allows you to see the styling (colours, fonts, and placement) of your messages so you can design them without having to manually fill out the form on your live website.
Success message: It appears the moment a customer successfully enters their email.
Invalid email: It only appears if the customer types something into the box that doesn’t follow the format of a real email address.
Error message: It appears that the subscription fails for reasons other than a typo.

Mail Content: is where you modify the email content that gets sent to the customer’s inbox the moment you restock the product.

Content when product has a single variant: You will be able to modify the content of the email form that you will receive when the product has a single variant.
Content when product has multiple variants: Here is the field for you to modify the content of the email form that you will receive when the product has multiple variants.

You will be able to modify the content ”Please notify me when” and “become available” as these will be the contents that will be shown in the form you will receive.

Please be aware that any emails received via the Shopify contact form have their content and titles controlled by Shopify, limiting our ability to edit or translate them.
