Email customers when a wishlisted item is back in stock

Default Off

Email customers when a wishlisted item drops in price

Default Off

Alerts go to logged-in customers, for items saved to their account. Logged-in sync saves their main wishlist there. With only Multiple wishlists on, just the items copied into a named list are watched. Guest wishlists live only in the browser, so guests don't get alerts.

Back in stock

Watches items that were out of stock when they were added to the wishlist.
When the product's stock status changes to In stock, every watching customer gets one email, then the watch ends. Removing the item from the list ends it too.
"On backorder" doesn't count as back in stock.

Subject: Linen Shirt is back in stock

Good news -- an item on your wishlist is back in stock: Linen Shirt
https://your-store.com/product/linen-shirt/

Price drop

The price when the item was added (the sale price, if on sale) is the starting point.
Any drop below it sends an email, then the lower price becomes the new starting point, so the next email needs a further drop.
Works for price edits and for scheduled sales starting. Variable products' price changes may not be detected.

Subject: Price drop: Linen Shirt

An item on your wishlist just dropped in price: Linen Shirt (was $49.00, now $39.00)

How emails are sent

Plain text, in the customer's language, sent through WordPress (wp_mail) shortly after the change by a background task, so WP-Cron must run on your site.
They don't use WooCommerce's email settings or template; your SMTP plugin's sender applies.
There is no unsubscribe link: customers stop alerts by removing the item. Mention alerts in your privacy policy.
Developers can change the subject and text with the siteryn_wishlist_pro_back_in_stock_email and siteryn_wishlist_pro_price_drop_email filters.
