Custom Stock Status Labels lets you rewrite WooCommerce stock and availability text without touching a template. Start with “Out of stock” → “Sold”, then customise every stock state, per product or per category, and replace any other WooCommerce string across your whole store.
Stock status text
- Set your own text for In stock , Low stock , Out of stock and On backorder / Available on backorder .
- Language-independent: it matches the product’s stock status , not the English string, so it works on translated stores too.
Low-stock urgency
- Show a “Selling fast — only 3 left!” style message when stock drops to a threshold you choose (or WooCommerce’s own low-stock amount).
- Toggle whether the real quantity is shown or hidden.
Merge tags
- Use {stock_qty} , {product_name} and {sku} inside any of your text.
Per-product & per-category overrides
- Override the text for a single product (Inventory tab) or a whole product category. Product beats category beats the global setting.
Find-and-replace anywhere
- Add unlimited find-and-replace rules to change any WooCommerce string — shop, cart, checkout, mini-cart, emails and order details — with optional case-sensitive matching.
Styling & display
- Turn the availability text into a coloured pill/badge (text colour, background, corner radius, weight, uppercase) with a live preview .
- Add an icon/emoji before each stock status.
- Show badges/ribbons on product images (“SOLD”, “Coming soon”, “Last one”) on the shop grid and product page, positioned top-left or top-right.
- When a product is out of stock, hide the Add to cart button or replace it with custom text or a button linking anywhere (e.g. a waitlist page).
