All product notifications are done manually by ... you.
It is not an automated thing.

  1. Customers sign up to be on the notifications list for individual (or "all") products.
  2. You, the shopowner, periodically send out newsletter notifications for various products. When selecting the audience to receive said notifications, you can choose which product-notification-lists to include when sending.
  3. Customers read the notifications you send, and come back to shop.

In ADMIN select "Newsletter and Product Notifications Manager" then click on "new newsletter".
The news letter box opens.
Change the module from newsletter to product_notification.
Create your newsletter and save.
LOCK your newsletter.
Click on SEND and see the product options screen.
