Hi
I wrote it for latest version.
Just copy the file to vqmod xml directory. It uses the email address from admin side. And currently emails for each product going out of stock. There is no config involved to get it to work

Hi and thanks for this, but it does not seem to be working for me. I tested by setting product to stock level of 1 then from front end I ordered this product, taking stock level down to 0. I did not receive an out of stock email.
I am using 1.5.1.3.1
Am I understanding the operation of this mod correctly? Any ideas?

Please check your vqmod logs to make sure the mod is applying correctley. Also check your maillog on the server to see if the email is not maybe getting blcoked by spam or something.

Karman,
I installed the mod and everything works fine! But I have one little question, now I get the 'model' field in the out of stock mail, but I want to see the product_name field in case of the 'model' field in my mail.
I already tried to change 'model' to 'product_id' in the .XML file but without succes.
Can you please tell me what to do?
Thank you very much, great mod!

I have tested the latest release of your mod and it blocks all e-mails coming from opencart, also order notifications.

Edited the mod and tested on 1.5.4.1
Sends alert mail to admin when quantity < 1
You can edit row 12 in the xml to set the warning stock quantity:
And the text starting on row 15:
Code: Select all
$text = 'Warning!'."\n\n";
$text .= 'Product stock reached 0'."\n\n";
$text .= 'Product name:'.$qry->row['name']."\n";
$text .= 'Product model:'.$qry->row['model']."\n";

Hi folks and thank you for the contribution to the developer of this xml.
I have updated the xml to be compatible for version 3.0.3.1

It should work on any 3.X version. Enjoy!

Thanks, this works on 2.3.0.2 as well tested. Is it possible to have it also notify when a product option is out of stock? For example Option A has 5 but Option B was sold out.

Yes.
Copy attached file to /system/ and refresh modifications or use Extension - Installer
Note 1: tested on OC 2.3.0.2
Note 2: Change values for minimum on lines 12 and 41 :
Code: Select all
if ($qry->row['quantity'] < 4) {
if ($option_gry->row['quantity'] < 2) {
