Waitlist

Hello, I noticed that a new feature, the waitlist, has been added. It's really great to see such a feature, but I was very disappointed to find out that it cannot be used for variable products. It would be amazing if we could use the waitlist feature when clicking on a size that is out of stock for variable products. I look forward to your response. I am grateful for all your hard work.

Does that mean that the Waitlist now works with variable products?

May 11, 2026

Hello, I strongly support this. Variable products are so common, that the waitlist feature really should support them. I have three more suggestions for this feature: - the option to allow waitlist only for logged in users (could serve as an incentive to create an account) - allow html in the “consent text”. A link from there to the privacy policy would make it compliant with GDPR requirements - prolong the cookie expiration time (or allow custom set). I think 2 weeks are too short. Users may come back to see that have already requested a back-to-stock notification.
