Auto Hide Sold-Out: A Clean Storefront, Automatically

Few things sour a shopper faster than clicking through to a product they want and finding it's sold out. It's a dead end - and if it happens often, your storefront starts to feel picked-over. Keeping sold-out items out of sight is the fix, but doing it by hand, every time stock runs dry and every time it comes back, is a chore nobody keeps up with.

Auto Hide Sold-Out Products does that housekeeping for you, automatically. The moment every tracked variant of a product hits zero, it's unpublished so shoppers can't land on it. Restock it, and it's republished on its own. And it only ever brings back products it hid itself - so anything you drafted or archived by hand stays exactly where you left it.

Here's the whole thing - built for your store just by describing it.

What you get

It runs quietly in the background, watching your inventory and reacting to sellouts and restocks as they happen. A built-in Activity view shows you exactly what it's hidden and what it's brought back, so nothing happens behind your back.

• Hides on sellout, brings back on restock - the moment a product's tracked variants all hit zero it's unpublished, and as soon as you restock it's live again.
• Never touches your own choices - it only restores products it hid; anything you drafted or archived yourself is left alone.
• Watch it work - limit it to specific collections if you want, and see everything it's done from the Activity view.

Where it earns its keep

Any store where things sell out and come back - limited runs, popular sizes, seasonal stock. Instead of shoppers hitting out-of-stock pages and bouncing, those products simply step out of view until they're buyable again, and step back in the instant they are. No calendar reminders, no manual publishing.

It's a natural companion to low-stock alerts - alerts tell you when something's about to run out, and this hides it cleanly the moment it does.

How you add it

You don't wire anything up or write any code. You describe what you want - "automatically hide products when they sell out and bring them back when I restock" - and Trooix builds it for your store. Want to limit it to a certain collection, or leave everything else untouched? Describe the change and Trooix tailors it. That plain-English build is the heart of what Trooix does.

Questions, answered

What is Auto Hide Sold-Out Products?

It's an automation that unpublishes a product the moment it sells out, so shoppers never land on an out-of-stock page, and republishes it on its own as soon as you restock.

Will it republish something I hid on purpose?

No. It only brings back products it hid itself - it keeps a private marker for each one. Anything you drafted or archived by hand it leaves completely alone.

Can I limit it to certain products?

Yes. Leave it watching all products, or point it at specific collections only - so it manages just the part of your catalogue you want it to.
