    Angry Need help with Stock Messages with Kit product

    Hi All,

    I've been having some issues with displaying In Stock / Out of Stock messages for Kit products. I'll use one of our products as an example. Basically we use kit products as configuration options for products. The product used for this example has 1 option group and purchasers can select between 2 options (ie. Product Packaging, OEM or Retail).

    The product is setup as follows:

    There are 2 variants in the product:

    OEM Packaging (default variant) has QTY 473.
    Retail Packaging has QTY -2.

    Then, these 2 variants are mapped to the product kit.

    If the DisplayOutOfStockOnEntityPages is set to true. "Out of Stock" is always displayed on Entity Pages for Kits no matter what (remember default variant has 473 stock so it should be saying In Stock). I also tried changing all variants to have positive stock but this did not affect the message:
    Name: Untitled-1.jpg Views: 9 Size: 26.8 KB

    The same is true for messages displayed in related products. Is there a way to disable stock messages showing up for related products?

    Further problems.... when KitInventory.ShowStockHint is set to true, all the stock messages for all options display the stock message for the selected option only. They should be displaying their own stock status:

    for example when OEM Packaging is selected, both options show In Stock
    Name: Untitled-2.jpg Views: 9 Size: 79.3 KB

    However, when Retail Packaging is selected, both options show Out of Stock
    Name: Untitled-3.jpg Views: 9 Size: 83.1 KB

    Can anyone suggest how to fix this?

    Default Recently Viewed and Related Products not showing matching stock messages?

    We're having a similar problem too. Although our out of stock message is showing properly on the product details page, it's showing "in stock" messages for related products AND recently viewed products.

    Is there a fix for this from someone at ASPDNSF programming team? version 9.2
