Hide out of stock variations when filtering

Hi @zimmerx

If I understand it correctly, you want to hide the out of stock products from WooCommerce core filters in the widget section.

Please confirm if you’ve enabled the “Hide out of stock items from the catalog” in WooCommerce > Settings > Products > Inventory. It should look like this:

If you’ve already done that and if the behavior still exists, could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status to understand how your site is configured? You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.? Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.

Also please share with us an example on your site, that we can test from our end.

Thanks

Here is the link of the website:
https://zapatero.ge/page/10/?filter_gender=%E1%83%99%E1%83%90%E1%83%AA%E1%83%98&filter_size=45

Sorry for the speed, it’s super slow now ??

as you can see I’ve filtered it with men size 45 and on page 10 you can still see the products which don’t have size 45 in stock but they are on the filtered page.

So, I found out that those products which can be found still have size 45 in attributes but not in variations due to out of stock. and seems this point was missed and now we have a lot of products which such problems.

I’ve tried to use this code :

add_action('woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item', 'out_of_stock_variations_loop');
function out_of_stock_variations_loop()
{
    global $product;
    $filter = 'size';
    if ($product->product_type === 'variable') {
        $available = $product->get_available_variations();
        if ($available) {
            foreach ($available as $instockvar) {
                if (isset($instockvar[ 'attributes' ][ 'attribute_pa_' . $filter ])) {
                    if ($_GET[ 'filter_' . $filter ]) {
                        if ( !in_array( $instockvar[ 'attributes' ][ 'attribute_pa_' . $filter ], explode(',', $_GET[ 'filter_' . $filter ]) , true ) || ($instockvar[ 'max_qty' ] <= 0) ) {
                            echo "<style>.post-" . $product->get_id() . " {display: none}</style>";
                        } else {
                            echo "<style>.post-" . $product->get_id() . " {display: list-item !important}</style>";
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

but after that you should work with layout and change a lot of things, also I don’t think that it’s the right way to do modifications.

Thank you.

Hello @zimmerx,

By default, the Hide out of stock item from catalog option only hides the products from the shop page. It is not meant to work for the filtering.

It would be great to have you add your ideas to the Ideas Board, which is where developers go to look for future plugin features and improvements.

Also, I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.

Thanks!
