Visible Stock Threshold for WooCommerce

Visible Stock Threshold lets you control what customers see and can buy:

• Visible stock cap: If real stock is above the threshold, only the threshold amount is shown/purchasable.
• Strict Mode: If real stock ≤ threshold, the product is Out of Stock (not purchasable).
• Multiple levels: Per-product, per-category, role-based, or global default.
• Custom message: “Only {qty} left in stock” (fully editable).
• Secure limits: Frontend input is capped and server-side validations prevent bypassing limits.
• Variation support, i18n-ready, clean code, no templates overridden.

Precedence: Product > Role > Highest Category > Global.

Why this plugin?

Urgency marketing without lying: keep internal buffer stock while honestly limiting visible/purchasable quantity.

Works with

WooCommerce stock-managed products (simple & variations). If stock management is off, plugin stays out of the way.
