The Stock Scarcity module offers a suite of configuration options within the Blocksy Customizer, empowering you to tailor the user experience and seamlessly integrate the low-stock alerts into your website’s design. Let’s delve into these options.
Stock Threshold
This critical setting determines the minimum product stock level that triggers the low-stock alert. By adjusting this threshold, you can control the desired level of urgency communicated to your visitors. For instance, a lower threshold creates a stronger sense of scarcity, potentially influencing purchase decisions.
Message
Craft compelling alert messages within the “Message” section. This empowers you to personalize the language used to communicate product scarcity, ensuring it aligns with your brand voice and marketing strategy. Effective messaging can significantly impact customer behavior, potentially leading to increased conversions.
Bar Height
The “Bar Height” option allows you to fine-tune the visual presentation of the progress bar. This bar dynamically reflects the remaining product stock. You can adjust the bar’s height to ensure it integrates visually with your product pages and complements your overall website design aesthetic. Additionally, device-specific adjustments are available, empowering you to optimize the bar’s appearance across various screen sizes.
Displaying the Stock Scarcity module
While the Stock Scarcity module operates automatically by default, you can leverage the Blocksy Customizer to strategically control where the low-stock alerts appear on your website. This empowers you to tailor the user experience and prioritize product visibility based on your marketing strategy.
Product Archives
To showcase stock scarcity information on product archive pages, navigate to Customizer -> Product Archives -> Card Options -> Stock Scarcity. Enabling this option ensures that the familiar stock progress bar and message appear alongside your product listings within archive pages, subtly nudging visitors towards potentially scarce items.
Single Product
Don’t miss the opportunity to leverage the Stock Scarcity module on single product pages. Navigate to Customizer -> Single Product -> Product Elements -> Stock Scarcity. Enabling this option displays the stock scarcity information prominently on your single product pages, keeping visitors informed about stock levels and potentially influencing purchase decisions before they miss out.
