I would like to sell a fixed product bundle (e.g., "Summer Box Découverte") using WooCommerce. The bundle includes around 20 individual products, each managed with its own stock.
Here's what I need:
✅ If one product in the bundle is out of stock, I want it to be automatically replaced with an alternative product that I will define.
For example:
If Fini The Mellows Classic 80g is out of stock, it should be automatically replaced by Fini The Mellows Passion 80g or Fini The Mellows Sweetheart 80g (depending on availability).
✅ This replacement should happen automatically, without any manual action required from the customer.
✅ The stock levels of all products, including replacements, must be properly tracked.
🔧 Does any of your plugins support this kind of automatic product substitution based on stock, or is there a recommended way to implement this (either through a plugin or custom code)?
I understand your desire, but unfortunately, it is too complicated to implement on WPC Product Bundles. It's not easy to create alternative product options for each sub-product in the bundle. It is necessary to consider the case where the alternative product is also out of stock.
You can try our other plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpc-composite-products/. With it, you can create multiple components and select various products for each component. Then, the buyer can select products for each component; out-of-stock products will no longer be selectable.
