Exclude Out of Stock products from search

Hi there,

We've used Brizy template to build a search results page. This works fine but we want to exclude products that are out of stock from the search - we've ticked Catalog visibility: Shop Only under Catalogue Visibility on an individual product.

Now, is this down to the Brizy search template or part of WooCommerce and / or the theme (OceanWP)?

Thanks,
Darren

  Hi,

  Unfortunately, at the moment it isn't possible to add a condition to the Archive or Products element to exclude the "Out of stock" products but I will inform our team about this suggestion and they will investigate it deeply.

  Thank you!

  Best regards,
  Sandra

  That's great thanks.

  We found a solution with some php that hides all products out of stock from search.

  As follows:

  /*Hide Out of Stock from search*/
  add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'hide_out_of_stock_in_search' );
  function hide_out_of_stock_in_search( $query ){
  if( $query->is_search() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
  $query->set( 'meta_key', '_stock_status' );
  $query->set( 'meta_value', 'instock' );
  }
  }
