Settings overview
What each control on the Easy Stock Buffer Settings page does: admin language, shop default threshold, pause, auto-hide, storefront display, location counting, and checkout messages.
Updated August 4, 2026
The Settings page holds every store-wide control. This is a map of what each section does and where to read more.
Language
Choose the admin language for Easy Stock Buffer. The app is available in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and Danish. Changing it updates the app right away.
Shop default
Turn on a single minimum stock that applies to every variant with no threshold of its own. See set a shop-wide default threshold.
Skip products that don't track quantity
Shopify reports products with Track quantity turned off as 0 in stock, which would make a threshold block them at checkout forever. This is on to begin with, so the app leaves them alone. See products that don't track quantity.
Pause (Pro)
Switch every threshold off for 1, 6, or 24 hours during a sale, then resume. See pause all thresholds for a sale.
Auto-hide sold-out products (Pro)
Hide a product from the storefront when all its variants reach their threshold, and republish on restock. Choose Draft or Unlisted, and an optional redirect. See auto-hide sold-out products.
Storefront display (Pro)
Open the theme editor to add the stock box and sold-out blocks to your product pages.
Location counting (Pro)
Choose how per-location thresholds are counted. Sum adds every location's threshold into the variant's effective threshold. Strict stops selling as soon as any single location with a threshold runs down to it.
Customer messages
Four controls sit together on this page:
- Block add to cart at your threshold. On by default, every plan. Stops an over-limit add on the product page, caps the quantity box on product pages and cart lines, and stops the Check out button. See block add to cart at your threshold.
- Fix the cart automatically at Check out. Off by default, every plan, and only in use while the control above is on. Instead of stopping the shopper, it lowers over-limit lines to what is available, takes out a line with nothing available, and explains the change in your wording so their next press goes through.
- What shoppers see when an item hits its threshold: your message, or the product showing as sold out (Pro).
- The four messages themselves, which you can reword. See edit the checkout messages.
