'Sold out' can we add an option to this

[mccltd]

Hi,

Is there a way that when a product is showing as 'sold out' that the customer can still purchase the item but be advised that we are awaiting stock?

Its just that some items we get in to order and doing it this way would help us.

thanks

Dave.

Look at Admin> Configuration> Stock

Thanks Kim,

yes changed the option in there and customers can now still order with the red alert mentioning the three *** meaning its out of stock.

Is there a way thou that it can show that the product was out of stock and on order for them on their email receipt?

Just that I know customers will say that didnt realise this and that its not mentioned on their confirmation email. Even thou it told them twice on the website.

Thanks again,

DAve.
