Back In Stock Plugin

Back-In-Stock Vendure Plugin

Keep your customers in the loop for when a sold-out product gets replenished and generate more revenue by adding potential future sales!

yarn add @callit-today/vendure-plugin-back-in-stock

yarn add -D @vendure/ui-devkit

  Add the plugin, email handler and AdminUI extensions to plugins in vendure-config.ts

  Create a template file for the Back-In-Stock email in static/email/templates/back-in-stock/body.hbs

 

How it works

For any product that is out of stock, customers can signup to be notified via email when the product is back in stock. When a product is replenished, the plugin gets active subscriptions for it and sends email notifications.

Disable email notifications by setting enableEmail to false in plugin init
For limiting notifications sent to the amount of saleable stock set limitEmailToStock to true

 

Next steps
