Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Back in Stock – Restock Alerts & Waitlist version 0.4.3 as active, updated 3mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
Kipphard Back in Stock adds a lightweight “Notify me” form to out-of-stock product pages. When stock is replenished, all subscribers are notified automatically — no manual work required.
What this plugin does:
Displays a “Notify me” sign-up form on out-of-stock WooCommerce product pages
Stores subscribers in a dedicated custom database table
GDPR-compliant consent checkbox on the sign-up form
Sends an automatic plain-text email to all subscribers when stock status changes to “In Stock” — uses configurable {product} and {link} placeholders in subject and body
Duplicate prevention: registering twice with the same email and product has no effect
Subscriber list in the WooCommerce admin (WooCommerce → Back in Stock)
Configurable form heading, button label, consent text, success/error messages, email subject, and email body
What this plugin does NOT do:
This plugin does not send marketing emails or newsletters. It only sends a single transactional notification per subscriber when the specific product they signed up for comes back in stock. All data is stored on your own server — no external services, no tracking.
Hinweis (DE): Dieses Plugin zeigt auf ausverkauften WooCommerce-Produktseiten ein „Benachrichtige mich”-Formular an und sendet eine automatische E-Mail, sobald das Produkt wieder auf Lager ist. Die Benutzeroberfläche ist auf Deutsch verfügbar.
