Other possibilities I have eliminated:

1. There are no products anywhere on out site where we have checked off the WooCommerce “out of stock” feature. I have checked, and in every case where Google produces this error, in the Product Page Editor, under Product data, in the Inventory menu we have “In stock” checked under “Stock status.”
2. I have uploaded updated sitemaps to Google, and they have been crawled. In Google’s URL Inspector Tool in the Search Console, under “availability” they are all listed as “in stock.” Yet Google displays them as “out of stock.”

Has Google changed its algorithm in a way that affects sites without shopping carts?

Is there some information being read by Google by YITH Catalog Mode that could be overriding the “in stock” parameter and causing this problem in Google?

Or some change to Google for sites that list prices but operate in a catalog mode rather than having a “shopping cart” that YITH has not kept up with? One reason I wonder about that is that I saw the same issue on much larger businesses than our little retail store that I doubt are using WooCommerce, such as InCollect. Search for “hb nims floor globe” and it produces “Out of Stock” for this globe: https://www.incollect.com/listings/decorative-arts/objects/nims-co-a-15-inch-terrestrial-floor-globe-by-nims-co-701221. InCollect provides the option to make an offer or query. I spoke to someone there and they are aware of the problem, have not yet figured out a solution, and said it cropped up two weeks ago, which is what we also noticed.

Thank you.

I am looking for the most simple and cost effective solution to create a catalog-like website where the customers can browse the products, see their availability and units available, but don’t have an option to purchase. This is to do sales in the physical location only, and the catalog is just for seeing the availability. On top of that, I need an integrated warehouse management system that could update the product units automatically, preferably with barcodes – we scan a product, mark it as sold and it automatically updates the WMS and the catalog.

Has anyone had any experience with something similar?

I have some services lined up, but before I go for it I’d love to hear other opinions. Perhaps this can be done cheaper etc?

1 – It seems that I need WooCommerce to add products. Perhaps I don’t if the site works as catalog only? I’m asking this due to hosting expenses, so if I don’t need woo, I could save a bunch on hosting.
2 – For WMS, I’m looking at WP Factory’s EAN generator. Does anyone know for sure if this updates the stock count automatically? https://wpfactory.com/item/ean-barcodes-woocommerce/
3 – I’ve read that in order to enable “catalog mode”, I would need a theme with such functionality (I learned this from chatGPT lol). Some of those on the list were Flatsome, Astra, Shopkeeper, OceanWP, Divi. Does that mean if I purchase one of these themes, I would have catalog mode available out of the box or would I still need to invest in a plugin?

Or am I just making things complicated and the same result can be achieved in a different way? I would highly appreciate your input.

Thanks! <3

Sorry just noticed the plugin causes a shop page critical error, see here: https://app.screencast.com/nGBr65BTWG6RF

I’ve recently added ELEX Request a quote to an Elementor site I am building. I have read through the documentation and unfortunately I am unable to edit the styling of the Add to Quote button. I have set my default button styles and I have also tried changing themes without luck.

Please assist.

It should be more intuitive: need one feature? > click here > then create conditions… not the other way around.

Looking to disable the option to add to cart for some items in the shop, Can the plugin do the job?

Thanks
