I have been looking EVERYWHERE and I cannot seem to find a solution to a very simple problem. I have a Woocommerce store and I want to show to the user a message "Out of stock" next to the variation if it is out of stock. I do not want it grayed out, I want the user to be able to select it so they can view the price if they wish. Most snippets I find online only works when they product has ONE variation but I need it to work for at least two. My website sells mobile devices so for example:
If a user selects the storage as 64GB then the color list updates showing which colors are out of stock in 64GB. If all colors are out of stock then next to 64GB it shows "Out of stock" also.
If the color is selected first, then the storage - the color list is then updated with what is out of stock.
Can anyone help me out here? Going insane trying to get this working. The below code works to gray out out of stock products in the exact way I mentioned above (it works for multiple products) but I can't figure out how to modify it for the use case mentioned above.
add_filter( 'woocommerce_variation_is_active', 'grey_out_variations_when_out_of_stock', 10, 2 );
function grey_out_variations_when_out_of_stock( $grey_out, $variation ){
if ( ! $variation->is_in_stock() ){
return false;
}else{
print_r($option_class);
return $term_name . ' - Out of Stock';;
}
}
You can check the availability of a product variation only if all but one of the attributes have been selected, not before.
All the necessary data is present on the product page and therefore you can use a jQuery script to process it.
In the variation form there is the data-product_variations attribute which contains an array with all the details of the product variations (variation id, stock status, attributes it uses, etc ...).
You can then make a comparison between the selected attributes and possible product variations.
The idea is this:
Check that there is more than one attribute (dropdown) on the product page
If all attributes (dropdowns) have been selected except one, get the attribute slug and the attribute value of the selected options
It compares them with the attributes that each single variation uses and, if the selected attributes are the same, gets the stock status of the last attribute to be selected
Adds the text "Out of stock" to each option whose product variation is not in stock. To do this it will use the woocommerce_update_variation_values event which fires after updating the options via Ajax (otherwise the changes will be overwritten)
The following code will work for 2 or more attributes (dropdowns) in
the variable product page.
// add the text "Out of stock" to each option of the last unselected attribute dropdown
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'add_out_of_stock_text_to_the_last_unselected_attribute_dropdown' );
function add_out_of_stock_text_to_the_last_unselected_attribute_dropdown() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
// initializes a global variable that will contain the attribute values to be updated ("Out of stock")
let globalAttributesToUpdate;
jQuery(function($){
// check if only one attribute is missing to be selected
function isLastAttribute(){
// if there is only one dropdown it returns false
if ( $('form.variations_form select').length == 1 ) {
return false;
}
// counts all selected attributes (excluding "Choose an option")
let count = 0;
$('form.variations_form select').each(function(){
if ( $(this).find(':selected').val() ) {
count++;
}
});
// if an attribute has not yet been selected, it returns true
if ( $('form.variations_form select').length - count == 1 ) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
$('form.variations_form select').change(function() {
if ( isLastAttribute() ) {
// clear the global variable every time
globalAttributesToUpdate = [];
let attrToFind = {}; // contains an object with slug and value of the selected attributes
let attrToSet; // contains the slug of the attribute not yet selected
$('form.variations_form select').each(function(index,object){
if ( $(this).find(":selected").val() ) {
attrToFind[$(this).data('attribute_name')] = $(this).find(":selected").val();
} else {
attrToSet = $(this).data('attribute_name');
}
});
// gets the value of the "data-product_variations" attribute of the variations form
let variationData = $('form.variations_form').data("product_variations");
$(variationData).each(function(index,object) {
let attrVariation = object.attributes;
let attrVariationLenght = Object.keys(attrVariation).length;
let found = 0;
let toSet;
let valueToSet;
// check all possible combinations of attributes (for single variation)
// based on the selected attributes
$.each( attrVariation, function( attr, value ) {
if ( attr in attrToFind && attrToFind[attr] == value ) {
found++;
} else {
// if the variation is out of stock it gets slug and value to add the text "Out of stock"
if ( object.is_in_stock == false ) {
toSet = attr;
valueToSet = value;
}
}
});
// if only one attribute is missing
if ( attrVariationLenght - found == 1 ) {
if ( toSet == attrToSet ) {
let obj = {};
obj[toSet] = valueToSet;
globalAttributesToUpdate.push(obj);
}
}
});
}
});
// inserts the text "Out of stock" after updating the variations
// based on the "globalAttributesToUpdate" global variable
$('body').on('woocommerce_update_variation_values', function(){
if ( globalAttributesToUpdate !== undefined && globalAttributesToUpdate.length ) {
$.each( globalAttributesToUpdate, function( key, attribute ) {
$.each( attribute, function( attrName, attrValue ) {
$('select[name='+attrName+'] > option[value="'+attrValue+'"]').append( " (Out of stock)" );
});
});
}
});
});

The code has been tested and works. Add it to your active theme's functions.php.

I've been looking over Stack for an answer but can't find one (even when reading this and this)
Here my trouble: i would like to display (or at least get the variable) of the default and selected price of a woocommerce variable product.
System: Wordpress 5,6 + woocommerce
With a single product, my code is working well and i obtain a display like this:
Display for a single product with weight and price rewritten on right after quantity selector
And code is the following:
global $woocommerce;
$productxyz = new WC_Product( get_the_ID() );
$priceproduct = $productxyz->get_regular_price();
$poidsproduct = $productxyz->get_weight();
// CODE FOR THE + AND - QUANTITY
var $ = jQuery;
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.decrement').click(function () {
$moninput = $(this).nextAll('input#Qte');
if( Number($moninput.val()) > $moninput.attr("min") ){
$moninput.val(Number($moninput.val()) - 1);
}else{
$moninput.val($moninput.attr("min"));
}
Update_Price();
event.preventDefault();
})
$('.increment').click(function () {
$moninput = $(this).nextAll('input#Qte');
$moninput.val(Number($moninput.val()) + 1);
Update_Price();
event.preventDefault();
})
$('#btn-cady').click(function () {
$('[name="add-to-cart"]').click();
event.preventDefault();
})
// CODE FOR THE TEXT DISPLAYED ON THE RIGHT OF THE QUANTITY SELECTOR
function Update_Price(){
if($('input#Qte').attr('price') > 0){
$total = parseFloat($('input#Qte').val()) * $('input#Qte').attr('price');
$qtyactuelle = parseFloat($('input#Qte').val());
$('input[name="quantity"]').val($('input#Qte').val());
console.log($total);
if( $qtyactuelle < 2){
$('.Qtotal h4').html("<font color='#401816'>pack soit " +($('input#Qte').attr('weight')*parseFloat($('input#Qte').val()))+"g |</font> "+parseFloat($total).toFixed(2)+" €");
}
if($qtyactuelle > 1){
$('.Qtotal h4').html("<font color='#401816'>packs soit " +($('input#Qte').attr('weight')*parseFloat($('input#Qte').val()))+"g |</font> "+parseFloat($total).toFixed(2)+" €");
}
}
}
Update_Price();
});
But for a variation product... i feel so ashamed to show my result because when it's displaying well, function is not working. And when functions are working, display is very terrible
Code result for variation product
I tried to use get_available_variations() and also the following foreach but...
foreach( $product->get_available_variations() as $variation ){
$found = true;
// Loop through variation attributes
foreach( $variation['attributes'] as $key => $value ){
$taxonomy = str_replace( 'attribute_', '', $key );
// Searching for a matching variation as default
if( isset($default_attributes[$taxonomy]) && $default_attributes[$taxonomy] != $value ){
$found = false;
break;
}
}
// If we get the default variation
if( $found ) {
$default_variaton = $variation;
break;
}
Has anyone an idea of how to developp it? I'm feeling speechless.
In advance, thanks a lot!!!
On WooCommerce variable product pages, product variation data is stored in the data-product_variations attribute of the multi-select <form class="variation_form"> element. The variation data is stored in JSON format which you can then decode using the JSON.parse() method. There is no need to output this data yourself via PHP as WooCommerce already does it for you.
The JSON stored in the data-product_variations attribute includes the following price related properties:
display_price
regular_price
sale_price
With a little bit of jQuery/JS, you can easily output or mutate the default or selected variation pricing with the above properties.
Good Luck!
I have a function where I duplicate a user to all subsite when they registered.
I achieved that by doing this:
function sync_user( $user_id )
{
$list_ids = get_sites();
$current_site = get_current_site();
$info = get_userdata($user_id);
foreach( $list_ids as $list )
{
if ( $list->blog_id != $current_site->id )
{
add_user_to_blog($list->id, $info->ID, 'subscriber');
}
}
// quick fix for: above somehow doesn't add to main site. add to main site here.
add_user_to_blog(1, $info->ID, 'subscriber');
}
Now, I want to "unsyc" the user when I removed the user from the site. I tried to hook it by using 'remove_user_from_blog', but it caused infinite loop.
Where can I hook the following code so that I can remove all those users that I added previously using above code?
function unsync_user( $user_id )
{
$list_ids = get_sites();
foreach( $list_ids as $list )
{
remove_user_from_blog( $user_id, $list->ID );
}
}
edited the title for clarity
AbdulRahman was correct about that. When user click 'remove' from the user list, the action not fire 'delete_user' or 'deleted_user' hook. I tested it.
I think it is tricky. So, here is how to add custom removed_user action. Add these lines below into your plugin.
add_action('remove_user_from_blog', function($user_id, $blog_id) {
// checking current action
// refer: wp-admin/users.php:99
$wp_list_table = _get_list_table( 'WP_Users_List_Table' );
if( $wp_list_table->current_action() != 'doremove' ) {
return; // only proceed for specific user list action
}
$fire_removed_user_hook = null; // closure reference
$fire_removed_user_hook = function() use ($user_id, $blog_id, &$fire_removed_user_hook) {
do_action( 'removed_user', $user_id, $blog_id );
// remove the hook back
remove_action('switch_blog', $fire_removed_user_hook);
};
// restore_current_blog called at the last line in the remove_user_from_blog function
// so action switch_blog fired
add_action('switch_blog', $fire_removed_user_hook);
}, 10, 2);
add_action('removed_user', function($user_id, $blog_id) {
// the user removed from be blog at this point
}, 10, 2);
The hook "deleted_user" runs after a user is deleted ("delete_user" runs before the deletion occurs):

I know we can add meta for woocommerce cart item using woocommerce_add_cart_item_data hook.
Is there any way to update existing cart item meta.?
Yes, but it seems, only via accessing the cart directly:
global $woocommerce;
$woocommerce->cart->cart_contents[$cart_item_key]['whatever_meta'] = 'testing';
$woocommerce->cart->set_session(); // when in ajax calls, saves it.
I would recommend to remove and re-add the product, as other meta data could be lost (as in Phong Tran's answer).
Based on #DanielSalcedos answer, only keeping the absolute minimum required to answer the question.
I know It's been a while, but as it's still not answered, and it took me lots of sweat and a pint of blood, I share my solution here.
First
I'll assume you know how to add metadata to a cart and into an order. If not, you can have a look at pwnewbie's solution but I recommend you the full article at Wisdm labs
Wisdm's method takes many steps. First you create a PHP's session variable trough Ajax. Second, you intercept woocommerce_add_cart_item_data filter to add your Session variable to woocommerce session.
The thing about woocommerce_add_cart_item_data filter is that it gets executed in the middle of the add to cart process, so, if you add your variable to the main $wooocmmerce object, at some point, it get's stored as the add-to-cart event. (Sort of)
The idea
What if I want to edit that metadata and not any of the standard cart properties. The ideal would be to get a filter or an action that runs in the middle of saving something. The problem is that as long as we don't change anything else, there's no hook to run (I tried with woocommerce_update_cart_action_cart_updated hook that runs after coupons, quantities and removals from cart had happened, but it never fired as I never passed the validations)
My approach
In a shell, rebuild as little as possible, as much as needed. I added a synchronous ajax event to the cart form OnSubmit event. (I want my UI to be updated with my changes, so the reload must happen after my update)
AJAX:
var myFlag33322805 = true;
$('form').submit(function(e){
if(myFlag33322805){
myFlag33322805 = false;
e.preventDefault(); // Flag and prevent default to syncronize submits
var kart = []; // Will retrieve every cart item's meta
$('.cartRow').each(function(){
//This object will store your meta data and be pushed into kart array
var kitm = {
'p' : $(this).data('product_id'),
'm' : $(this).find('select[name=myMetaData]').val(),
'k' : $(this).data('key')
};
kart.push(kitm);
});
var data = {
'action': 'Ajax_Update_My_MetaData_33322805',
'k': kart
};
$.post(VKVAjax.ajaxurl, data, function (response) {
// Might do something with the response here
});
$('form').submit(); // This time, the form will submit, but AJAX wont run because of myFlag33322805 = false
}
});
The magic:
The php ajax response is a function that will receive my meta data to update (actually, all of it, updated or not), and will take the global $woocommerceobject to insert the meta data AND save it to the session:
PHP:
function fn_Update_My_MetaData_33322805(){
global $woocommerce;
$cart = $woocommerce->cart->cart_contents;
$updt = Array();
foreach ($_POST['k'] AS $item){
$product = new stdClass();
$updtCL = new stdClass();
$product->{'id'} = $item['p']; //This is product id
$product->{'mymeta'} = $item['m']; //This is metadata
$updtCL->{'krtkey'} = $item['k']; //This is product key in cart
$updtCL->{'meta'} = $product;
$updt[] = $updtCL;
}
// cycle the cart replace the meta of the correspondant key
foreach ($cart as $key => $item) {
foreach($updt as $updtitem){
if($key == $updtitem->krtkey){ // if this kart item corresponds with the received, the meta data is updated
// Update the content of the kart
$woocommerce->cart->cart_contents[$key]['vkv_AlternCart_value'] = $updtitem->meta;
}
}
}
// This is the magic: With this function, the modified object gets saved.
$woocommerce->cart->set_session();
wp_die('{"e":"ok", "Updt": "'.count($arrupdt).'"}');
}
Of course, this should be hooked as any other ajax event.
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_Ajax_Update_My_MetaData_33322805', 'fn_Ajax_Update_My_MetaData_33322805');
add_action('wp_ajax_Ajax_Update_My_MetaData_33322805', 'fn_Ajax_Update_My_MetaData_33322805');
Conclussion
You can update the meta data of a cart item with a synchronous Ajax call, overwritting the object directly to the $woocommerce global variable and saving it with the $woocommerce->cart->set_session(); method.
Footnotes
It's not the ideal method, and is quite risky to work directlly with the $woocommerce global. I would love to know of a better approach.
I'm newbie and my English is not good so the answer may be a little confusing.
Thank vlad274 for the advice.
My approach:
Same with Daniel Salcedo, I also try to change the metadata by editing woocommerce_sessions, but there is a problem. When adding an item to the cart, the woocommerce will create a unique cart_item_key for it by md5 (product_id + ... + metadata), then look for this cart_item_key already exists, if available, this item will be updated in quantity, otherwise will create a new item.
This means that if you change the meta value of the hat product from blue to red, then add the hat product with blue, instead of creating a new item blue hat, it will only increase the quantity of red hat, you need to change the cart_item_key if you want the cart to be updated correctly.
Changing cart_item_key is quite risky, instead we can simply remove and re-add the product. Like this
// get cart_item_key of item you want to change
$cart_item_key_old = $_POST['cart_item_key'];
// retrieve its information
$cart_item_old = WC()->cart->cart_contents[ $cart_item_key_old ];
$product_id_old = $cart_item_old['product_id'];
$quantity_old = $cart_item_old['quantity'];
$variation_id_old = $cart_item_old['variation_id'];
$variation_old = $cart_item_old['variation'];
// creating a cart_item_key with the same information except metadata
$cart_item_key_new = WC()->cart->generate_cart_id( $product_id_old, $variation_id_old, $variation_old, ['color'=>'red'] );
// check new cart_item_key already exists
$found = WC()->cart->find_product_in_cart( $cart_item_key_new );
// if true, update its quantity
if ($found != '') {
$new_quantity = $cart_item_old['quantity'] + WC()->cart->cart_contents[ $cart_item_key_new ]['quantity'];
WC()->cart->set_quantity( $cart_item_key_new, $new_quantity );
}
// else, re-add with new metadata
else {
WC()->cart->add_to_cart($product_id_old, $quantity_old, $variation_id_old, $variation_old, ['color'=>'red'] );
}
// finally delete the old item
WC()->cart->remove_cart_item($cart_item_key_old);
wp_die();
Note: If you want to submit cart form instead of page refreshes after running the above ajax, the quantity of item is likely to be overridden by the set_quantity method when woocommerce update_cart. In this case you just need to return new_quantity and change the input value by js before submitting the form.
Full code:
foreach ( WC()->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item_key => $cart_item ) {
...
?>
<!-- place it anywhere within the foreach -->
<div class="box-type-field">
<select class="box-type" name="box-type" cart_item_key="<?php echo $cart_item_key ?>">
<option <?php echo $cart_item['box-type']=='boxes'?"selected":""; ?> value="boxes"><?php _e( 'Boxes', 'woocommerce' ); ?></option>
<option <?php echo $cart_item['box-type']=='bags'?"selected":""; ?> value="bags"><?php _e( 'Bags', 'woocommerce' ); ?></option>
</select>
</div>
<?php
...
}
AJAX:
$('.box-type-field .box-type').live('change', function () {
var cartItemKey = $(this).attr("cart_item_key");
var boxType = $(this).val();
$.ajax({
type : "post",
url : '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php');?>',
datatype: 'json',
data : {
action : "update_cart_boxtype",
cart_item_key : cartItemKey,
box_type : boxType,
},
success: function(cartItem) {
cartItemKey = cartItem[0];
cartItemQty = cartItem[1];
if (cartItem) $('input[name="cart['+cartItemKey+'][qty]"]').val(cartItemQty); // update quantity
$('.woocommerce-cart-form button[type="submit"]').click(); // submit form
}
})
})
PHP:
add_action( 'wp_ajax_update_cart_boxtype', 'update_cart_boxtype_init' );
add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_update_cart_boxtype', 'update_cart_boxtype_init' );
function update_cart_boxtype_init() {
if ( ! WC()->cart->is_empty() ) {
$cart_item_key = (isset($_POST['cart_item_key']))?$_POST['cart_item_key'] : '';
$cart_item = WC()->cart->cart_contents[ $cart_item_key ];
$box_type = (isset($_POST['box_type']))?$_POST['box_type'] : '';
$cart_updated = false;
$cart_item_key_new = WC()->cart->generate_cart_id( $cart_item['product_id'], $cart_item['variation_id'], $cart_item['variation'], ['box-type'=>$box_type] );
$found = WC()->cart->find_product_in_cart( $cart_item_key_new );
if ($found != '') {
$new_qty = $cart_item['quantity'] + WC()->cart->cart_contents[ $cart_item_key_new ]['quantity'];
WC()->cart->remove_cart_item($cart_item_key);
wp_send_json_success([$cart_item_key_new, $new_qty]);
} else {

wp_send_json_success(false);
}
}
wp_die();
}
Step 1: Add Data in a Custom Session, on ‘Add to Cart’ Button Click
For those of you who have worked with WooCommerce might know that on the click of the ‘Add to Cart’ button the product page gets refreshed and the user data is lost. Hence, we should add the custom data from our product page to a custom session created using Ajax. This code is invoked before the WooCommerce session is created.
<?php
add_action('wp_ajax_wdm_add_user_custom_data_options', 'wdm_add_user_custom_data_options_callback');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_wdm_add_user_custom_data_options', 'wdm_add_user_custom_data_options_callback');
function wdm_add_user_custom_data_options_callback()
{
//Custom data - Sent Via AJAX post method
$product_id = $_POST['id']; //This is product ID
$user_custom_data_values = $_POST['user_data']; //This is User custom value sent via AJAX
session_start();
$_SESSION['wdm_user_custom_data'] = $user_custom_data_values;
die();
}
Step 2: Add Custom Data in WooCommerce Session
At this step, the WooCommerce session has been created and is now available for us to add our custom data. We use the following code to add the custom data from the session we have created into the WooCommerce session. At this step, our session is also unset since the data in it has been captured and it is not needed anymore.
add_filter('woocommerce_add_cart_item_data','wdm_add_item_data',1,2);
if(!function_exists('wdm_add_item_data'))
{
function wdm_add_item_data($cart_item_data,$product_id)
{
/*Here, We are adding item in WooCommerce session with, wdm_user_custom_data_value name*/
global $woocommerce;
session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION['wdm_user_custom_data'])) {
$option = $_SESSION['wdm_user_custom_data'];
$new_value = array('wdm_user_custom_data_value' => $option);
}
if(empty($option))
return $cart_item_data;
else
{
if(empty($cart_item_data))
return $new_value;
else
return array_merge($cart_item_data,$new_value);
}
unset($_SESSION['wdm_user_custom_data']);
//Unset our custom session variable, as it is no longer needed.
}
}
Step 3: Extract Custom Data from WooCommerce Session and Insert it into Cart Object
At this stage, we have default product details along with the custom data in the WooCommerce session. The default data gets added to the cart object owing to the functionality provided by the plugin. However, we need to explicitly extract the custom data from the WooCommerce session and insert it into the cart object. This can be implemented with the following code.
add_filter('woocommerce_get_cart_item_from_session', 'wdm_get_cart_items_from_session', 1, 3 );
if(!function_exists('wdm_get_cart_items_from_session'))
{
function wdm_get_cart_items_from_session($item,$values,$key)
{
if (array_key_exists( 'wdm_user_custom_data_value', $values ) )
{
$item['wdm_user_custom_data_value'] = $values['wdm_user_custom_data_value'];
}
return $item;
}
}
Step 4: Display User Custom Data on Cart and Checkout page
Now that we have our custom data in the cart object all we need to do now is to display this data in the Cart and the Checkout page. This is how your cart page should look after the custom data has been added from the WooCommerce session to your Cart.
My-Cart-Page
So I'm trying to hide certain ship methods in Woocommerce based on a product tag. The main problem I face is my own lack PHP knowledge so I frankensteined the following code together with the help of some very friendly folks:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_shipping_methods', 'hide_shipping_based_on_tag' , 10, 1 );
function check_cart_for_share() {
// load the contents of the cart into an array.
global $woocommerce;
$cart = $woocommerce->cart->cart_contents;
$found = false;
// loop through the array looking for the tag you set. Switch to true if the tag is found.
foreach ($cart as $array_item) {
if (isset($array_item['product_tag']) && $array_item['product_tag'] == "CHOSEN_TAG") { // Replace "CHOSEN_TAG" with what ever tag you want
$found = true;
break;
}
}
return $found;
}
function hide_shipping_based_on_tag( $available_methods ) {
// use the function abve to check the cart for the tag.
if ( check_cart_for_share() ) {
// remove the rate you want
unset( $available_methods['flat_rate'] ); // Replace "flar_rate" with the shipping option that yu want to remove.
}
// return the available methods without the one you unset.
return $available_methods;
}
I understand that this code is by no means universal and thus the variables will be different from case to case but perhaps someone can tell me if something looks off in the code. Much appreciated
No doubt you have sorted this by now but your code was a good start for me ... and since I sorted it I have published it below. Your problem was that woocommerce doesn't have the product_tag in the cart array so you have to go and get it.
/* !Hide Shipping Options Woocommerce */
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_shipping_methods', 'hide_shipping_based_on_tag' , 10, 1 );
function check_cart_for_share() {
// load the contents of the cart into an array.
global $woocommerce;
$cart = $woocommerce->cart->cart_contents;
$found = false;
// loop through the array looking for the tag you set. Switch to true if the tag is found.
foreach ($cart as $array_item) {
$term_list = wp_get_post_terms( $array_item['product_id'], 'product_tag', array( "fields" => "names" ) );
if (in_array("Heavy",$term_list)) { // Replace "Heavy" with what ever tag you want
$found = true;
break;
}
}
return $found;
}
function hide_shipping_based_on_tag( $available_methods ) {
// use the function above to check the cart for the tag.
if ( check_cart_for_share() ) {
// remove the rate you want
unset( $available_methods['flat_rate'] ); // Replace "flat_rate" with the shipping option that you want to remove.
}
// return the available methods without the one you unset.
return $available_methods;
}
You can use shipping class of Woocommerce to achieve this.
Here is the step by step instructions.
Create a shipping class (woocommerce->settings->shipping->shipping classes).
Associate this shipping class with products (that you wand to hide shipping methods for)
Use this snippet. (copy and pate to function.php).
