Stock Countdown Bar Setup Guide

Stock Countdown

Can I customize the appearance of the Stock Countdown bar?

The Stock Countdown module lets you display the remaining stock for specific products in your store, creating a sense of urgency to encourage customers to buy before items sell out.

To customize the text, colors, and design of the Stock Countdown bar, follow these steps:


  1. Navigate to the Stock Countdown module in the app.
  2. In the **Content & Design **section:
    1. Write the text that will appear above the bar. 

Tip: Use tone that creates urgency to motivate quick purchases.


  1. Customize the colors and font style according to your preferences.
  2. Adjust the text alignment for better display on your storefront.


  1. In the Style section:
    1. Choose the bar design, either flat or capsule-shaped.


  1. In the Stock Countdown Settings section, you can further customize the bar with the following options:
    1. Display the bar for products with stock levels less than or equal to a specified number.


  1. Show a "Sold Out" message when a product is out of stock on your storefront.


  1. Place the bar above the Add to Cart button for each product.


  1. Display different bars for different product variants. For example, show unique Stock Countdown bars for each shirt size (small, medium, or large).



  1. Additionally, you can customize the bar's animation and color settings to align with your brand theme.



Where can I display the Stock Countdown in my store?

At the **Stock Countdown Display On **section, you can configure the display settings to show the stock countdown on specific product pages or collections.




How do I set the stock levels for the countdown?

You can manually adjust the stock levels in your store's inventory, and the stock countdown will reflect those updates through the set variables. 


Can I choose specific products to display the stock countdown?

Yes, simply configure the "Stock Countdown Display On" settings to select where the countdown appears.



  1. You can also navigate to the Stock Countdown List. Here you can see all the products with their display status. So you can activate/deactivate each product according to your preferences. 




What happens when a product runs out of stock?

  1. You can configure display messages when stock runs out by writing **Sold Out **at the **Stock Countdown Settings **section.
  2. This way, the product will show **Sold Out **when it runs out of stock 
  3. You can also disable the **Stock Countdown **bar when the product inventory reaches zero.
