Adding a custom Stock Status to OpenCart 1.5

OpenCart comes with the ability to set up different stock statuses. Setting the stock status of a product in OpenCart lets your website’s visitors know when to expect a product. By default, some stock statuses are already set up. You can use the statuses that are already defined such as 2-3 days, In Stock, Out of Stock, or Pre-Order. If you know products may take you 2 to 3 weeks to replenish, you can create a custom stock status as well. Stock Status is managed through your OpenCart dashboard.< p>

  1. Log into your OpenCart Dashboard
  2. Go to Localisation >> Stock Statuses
  3. opencart_stock_status_1

  4. If you want to create a new stock status, click on “Insert
  5. Fill in the “Stock Status Name
  6. opencart_stock_status_2

  7. Click “Save” in the upper right corner
