Out of Stock Variants

[Jonathan Read]

We have many products with variants and variable stock levels. We are also using the price range setting to display min-max prices. All OK so far except when the first variant is out of stock - then we get no 'add to basket' button and it appears to the customer that the product is out-of-stock.
Would it be possible to default the first variant to the first one in-stock - so avoiding the problem above?

Interesting one... I tried putting stock against the main code, but if the first variant is out of stock, it still shows out of stock, as you say. May be one for Rich to help out on?

Regards

We've looked into this one before, and it's actually very difficult to achieve from a technical point of view. We'll revisit this again in the future.

I'm sorry this took so long, but this is now resolved in the latest update.

Thanks Rich. This saves me manually changing the default when variants go out of stock, all to the good!
