$wpide_cat_thresholds = array( // Category slug => low stock threshold.
'best-sellers' => 20,
'accessories' => 5,
);
$wpide_cat_threshold = function ( $amount, $product ) use ( $wpide_cat_thresholds ) {
if ( '' !== $product->get_low_stock_amount( 'edit' ) && null !== $product->get_low_stock_amount( 'edit' ) ) {
return $amount;
}
$id = $product->get_parent_id() ? $product->get_parent_id() : $product->get_id();
foreach ( $wpide_cat_thresholds as $slug => $threshold ) {
if ( has_term( $slug, 'product_cat', $id ) ) {
return $threshold;
}
}
return $amount;
};
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_get_low_stock_amount', $wpide_cat_threshold, 10, 2 );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_variation_get_low_stock_amount', $wpide_cat_threshold, 10, 2 );Notes
A threshold set on an individual product still wins, and the change affects low stock emails and reports.
