Post How do I hide items that are out of stock? 
Hi,

I'd like to be able to leave items that are "out of stock" in my database for when I have them again, but I don't want to show them on my site at all.

I'm not sure that the Inventory package would do what I want, because items are sold in my face-to-face store and online, so just decrementing the quantity available every time an order is placed online won't do it. I was thinking that I could use a UserField with a simple 0 or 1 to indicate whether the item is available, and quickly go online and edit it when I sell the last one. That would be fine with me, because I rarely go out of stock of things. (But when I do, they're often unavailable for 6 months or more, which is why I don't want them to even show on the site.) But I don't know where to put the logic to hide it from the product pages once it's NOT available.

Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Whether you have v4.x or v5, the answer is about the same...
There are ways of doing this (various ways), but they are only available to pro members...

I have v.5. But do you mean that the Pro software is different? I thought it was just "premium support". My store is completely built and customized, so I wouldn't want to have to start over if the Pro software is different. What do you think I should do?

Thanks!

Pro is a little different and has more features & add-ons.
You can still use the same data.file and customized pages.
You would just install v5.1 pro to a different diectory and transfer over the customized files.

HTH!
