# Stock Display Options

**What was added?**

Addition of options in the back office that allow merchants to choose how the stock of a product is displayed on the website. These options enable the merchant to select between displaying an "In Stock/Out of Stock" message or a table showing each product variant with its stock availability.

**How is this useful for you?**

**The addition of the stock display option empowers merchants to control how stock information is presented to their customers.**

For merchants in industries such as corporate clothing and gifting, displaying accurate stock levels can be highly beneficial, as it enables customers to make informed purchasing decisions based on real-time availability.

Conversely, merchants who source products from multiple suppliers may prefer not to display stock quantities. In such cases, concealing stock levels helps prevent customers from making assumptions about product availability, as the merchant can fulfil orders through various supply channels as needed.

**Where are these new options?** 

1. In the back office, click your Store Name.
2. Select Manage Store Settings.
3. Scroll to the Catalogue section.
4. Click on Product Display, and you will see the new settings under Product Stock Settings.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.storefront.co.za/release-notes/new-features/2025-new-features/may-2025-new-features/stock-display-options.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
