    Default Mark product out of stock

    I want to display on the product page that when a item is out of stock that it is still available to order. I filled in the Mark product out of stock field to say "Not in stock but available to order" and it does not display anywhere on the product page

    OK set to false and it still shows 0 units in stock, any idea why my changes aren't making any difference?

    Yup, set to 1.

    The ultimate I'm going for is to display the message, "Not in stock but available to order". This way customers know that I have to order the item.

    I was under the impression thats what the "Mark product out of stock" field was for

    Perhaps you could add bright and bold "Not in stock but available to order" to your product description.

    Am I missing something here? Do I have the wrong impression of what the "Mark product out of stock" field is designed to do? If not I would rather fix the code to function as designed and not have to worry about patching it for every update.
