Products in Stock Filter
The FWW Stock Status widget allows your customer to pick if they only want to browse products that are in stock. If your standard setting is showing all your products whether they are available at that particular time or not, then of course it is possible for a product to be unavailable.
It’s up to you if you wish to show out-of-stock products, but generally it’s a good idea.

Setting up the Stock Status widget
To get started with our FWW Stock Status widget, you first have to go to your Dashboard > Settings > Faster Woo Widgets, scroll down until you reach Always Check Stock Levels and make sure this is set to Yes, then save changes at the bottom of the page.
Then go to Appearance > Widgets, add and configure the FWW Stock Status widget. There are four Display types. I’ll show them all in the Grocery Store theme, beginning with the radio display type. The radio display type is the only one that will have both the text for ‘Show all’ and ‘Show in Stock’. Don’t forget to save the widget before refreshing your website.
