FAQ

Does this work with variable products?

Yes. Subscribers are tracked per variation. When a variation comes back in stock only the subscribers for that specific variation are notified.

Where are subscriber emails stored?

In a dedicated {prefix}lime_watchlist table in your WordPress database. Emails are never sent to third parties.

How does the unsubscribe link work?

Each notification email contains a unique signed unsubscribe link. Clicking it marks the subscriber as unsubscribed — no login required.

What is the popup display mode?

Instead of rendering the form inline on the page, a trigger button is shown. Clicking it opens a modal overlay containing the form. Both modes are fully themed via the Style settings.

What happens if a notification email fails to send?

Action Scheduler marks the action as failed and the subscriber status changes to « Failed » in the admin. You can resend failed notifications individually from the Subscribers tab.

Can customers re-subscribe after being notified?

Yes. Once notified (or after unsubscribing), the form reappears and a customer can subscribe again.

Does it work with backorder products?

Optionally. Enable Allow subscriptions on backorder in Settings Subscriber Form to show the form and accept subscriptions on products with a backorder stock status.
