The Sort | Hide Out-of-Stock plugin for WooCommerce helps you maintain a clean, shopper-friendly storefront by automatically hiding or rearranging unavailable products. You can choose to completely remove out-of-stock items from your store, push them to the bottom of product listings, or sort them however you prefer—either storewide or within specific categories and tags.
Once products are restocked, they reappear automatically, ensuring your catalog stays up to date without manual work. Advanced features like role-based visibility, custom redirects from unavailable product pages, and a detailed hidden-stock report give you complete control over how out-of-stock products are handled.

<h2>CG Product Availability Scheduler For WooCommerce</h2>
The CG Product Availability Scheduler helps store owners manage product availability with rules based on day, time, geo-location, and user roles. This ensures a smooth shopping experience while giving store admins complete flexibility.
Running an online store is not only about adding products but also about controlling when, where, and who can buy them.
CG Product Availability Scheduler is a powerful extension that helps store owners control when and where products can be purchased. WooCommerce already provides a solid foundation for online stores — this extension enhances it with advanced scheduling features.
<hr />
<h2 data-start="419" data-end="479">Why you should use CG Product Availability Scheduler</h2>
CG Product Availability Scheduler is built for businesses that want more control over when products are sold. For example, food delivery stores can restrict orders after certain hours, wholesale shops can allow access to specific user roles only, and global stores can block orders from certain countries or states.
<hr />
<h2>Features :</h2>
<ol>
<li>Global Day/Time Availability Rules: Set global rules to allow or block purchases on specific days of the week or during certain time ranges.</li>
<li>Product and Category-Based Availability Scheduling: Override global rules by applying custom availability rules for individual products or entire categories.</li>
<li>Holiday Dates and Exception Dates in Product Availability Scheduler: Add holidays (block dates) and exception dates (allow dates) to fine-tune availability.</li>
<li>Add to Cart Button Control with WooCommerce Scheduler: Hide or disable the Add to Cart button when a product is not available. You can customize the restriction message with placeholders like <code>{allowed_days}</code>.</li>
<li>Countdown Timer and Shortcode for Product Availability: Use the built-in countdown timer to show when the product will be available again. A shortcode <code>[daycart_next_available]</code> is also available for easy placement.</li>
<li>Bulk Rule Application in WooCommerce Scheduler: Quickly apply rules in bulk, such as Global, Weekdays Only, or Weekends Only.</li>
<li>Geo-Location Based WooCommerce Availability Rules: Control product availability by:
<ul>
<li>Blocking/allowing products for multiple countries.</li>
<li>Restricting access based on state or region within a country.</li>
<li>Showing custom geo-based restriction messages.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>User Role Based Product Scheduling in WooCommerce: Create role-specific product rules. For example, allow products for wholesale customers but block them for guests. Different messages can be displayed for logged-in vs. guest users. Since WooCommerce is built on top of WordPress, you can leverage <a href="https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/roles-and-capabilities/" target="_new" rel="noopener">WordPress user roles and capabilities</a> to customize access.</li>
<li>Calendar View for WooCommerce Product Availability: A simple calendar view helps store admins visualize availability settings for each product. This makes it easier to plan schedules, holidays, and exception rules.</li>
<li>
<h4 data-start="2258" data-end="2298">Start Date & End Date for Rules</h4>
Define when an availability rule should begin and end. Perfect for:

</li>
<li>
Day-wise Time Slot Rules
Set different time windows for each day of the week. Examples:
<ul data-start="2690" data-end="2785">
<li data-start="2690" data-end="2713">

</li>
<li data-start="2714" data-end="2739">
Tuesday: 10 AM – 3 PM
