Overview
What this extension does
By default, OpenCart provides the “Stock Checkout” option, allowing customers to complete their purchase even when products are out of stock.
However, in some cases, you may need stricter control over which products can be ordered when their stock reaches zero.
With this extension, you can disable checkout for specific products when their stock quantity reaches 0, ensuring customers cannot place orders for those particular items.
The problem
Why this matters
OpenCart’s stock checkout setting is applied globally—meaning you either allow all out-of-stock products to be ordered or prevent all of them.
But what if you want more control and only disable checkout for selected products when they run out of stock?
This extension solves this limitation by allowing you to choose specific products where checkout should be restricted when stock reaches zero—without affecting other products in your store.
