Anticipo at a glance

Is Anticipo well maintained?

• Turn any simple, variable or external product into a pre-order from a Pre-order tab on the product
• Set a release date and time in your store timezone, stored in UTC so a timezone change never moves a launch
• Take pre-orders with no announced date at all, then fill the date in later and have every waiting customer emailed automatically
• Set a cut-off date so orders close before release while you confirm quantities with a supplier
• Reduce stock on release day rather than at checkout, so your inventory figures stay honest
• Decide whether pre-orders can share a basket with in-stock items, or must be bought on their own
• Give each product its own button text and availability message, or set them once for the whole store
• Show a pre-order badge and a live countdown to release, with the badge wording set store wide or per product (“Coming soon”, “Limited edition”)
• List every product currently taking pre-orders on any page with the [anticipo_preorder_products] shortcode, soonest release first
• Release or cancel any pre-order by hand, individually or in bulk
• Filter the Products list to show only the products taking pre-orders, or only those that are not
