What InStock First does

In-stock products first

In each collection you turn on, products whose every variant is sold out move below every product that can still be bought.

Restocks float back

When a sold-out product is restocked, it returns to the place it had before.

Nothing hidden, theme untouched

Products are never hidden, unpublished, tagged or edited. Only the order inside the collection changes.

Runs by itself

Inventory changes are picked up within about a minute, and a nightly check covers anything missed.

Who it’s for

  • Shopify merchants whose collections fill up with “Sold out” badges
  • Stores with seasonal, limited or often restocked products
  • Anyone who wants out-of-stock items at the end of a collection without editing theme code

How it works

  1. Install InStock First from the Shopify App Store and approve its three permissions.
  2. Turn it on for the collections you choose, or for all of them.
  3. Sold-out products sink below the in-stock ones and stay there as inventory changes.
  4. A restocked product returns to its place; turn a collection off and its previous sort order comes back.

Questions about InStock First

Does it work with collections sorted by Best selling?

Shopify can only reorder products in manually sorted collections. The app explains this first, then keeps the order shoppers see with sold-out products at the end. Turning it off switches the collection back to its rule.

Does it read my orders or customers?

No. It reads products, inventory and collections only, and stores no customer data.

When is a product sold out?

When every one of its variants is tracked, at zero sellable quantity, and not set to keep selling when out of stock.

OrderColor

Color-codes the orders list in your Shopify admin by tag, country, total or status, so the orders that matter stand out. Runs in your browser.

CheckoutBeat

Walks your Shopify or WooCommerce store’s product page, cart and checkout on a schedule, stops before paying, and alerts you by email, Slack or SMS when a step breaks.

Storefront Catalog

Products, variants and prices from public Shopify storefronts, plus an optional store profile: theme, apps in use, catalog size and price range.
