    content/plugins/` directory

## FAQ

### Do I need WooCommerce installed?

Yes, this plugin requires WooCommerce to be installed and activated. It will not
work without WooCommerce.

### Will this work with my theme?

Yes! The plugin works with any WooCommerce-compatible theme. It hooks into WooCommerce’s
native stock display system. If the indicator is not visible with your theme, use
the **Product Page Display Position** setting under Advanced to inject it directly
at a specific location on the product page.

### The indicator is showing as plain HTML code instead of a styled bullet — what do I do?

Some themes read the stock status text and display it without rendering the HTML,
causing the indicator markup to appear as raw code. To fix this, go to **Settings
Sidocode Availability Indicators  Advanced Placement** and change the **Product 
Page Display Position** from Default to one of the custom positions (After product
title, After price, or After short description). This bypasses the theme’s stock
display entirely and injects the indicator directly into the page.

### Can I use different messages for different products?

Currently, the settings apply globally. However, you can use custom thresholds and
messages that work for most of your products. For product-specific messages, you
would need custom development.

### What happens in Simple Mode?

When Simple Mode is enabled, all in-stock products (regardless of quantity) will
show a green bullet with “In stock, ready to ship”. Out of stock products show a
black bullet with “Out of stock”.

### Can I use HTML in the messages?

For security reasons, HTML is not allowed in message fields. Only plain text and
the {quantity} placeholder are supported.

### How do I show the actual stock number?

Use the `{quantity}` placeholder in your medium or low stock messages. For example:“
Only {quantity} items remaining!”

### Will this affect my site’s performance?

No, the plugin is lightweight and uses efficient WordPress options API. It only 
loads on pages where stock information is displayed.

### Can I translate the messages?

Yes! The plugin is fully translation-ready with the text domain ‘sidocode-availability-
indicators-for-woocommerce’. You can use translation plugins like Loco Translate
or WPML.

### What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

All custom stock messages will revert to WooCommerce’s default stock messages. Your
settings are saved in the database and will be restored if you reactivate the plugin.

### Does it work with variable products?

Yes! Stock messages work perfectly with variable products and will update dynamically
when customers select different variations.

### Can I customize the bullet colors?

Currently, the bullets use standard emoji characters (🟢, 🟡, 🔴, ⚫). You can modify
these by editing the plugin code, but this requires development knowledge.

### Will this work with caching plugins?

Yes, the plugin works with most caching plugins since it uses server-side PHP to
generate messages.
