graftedin on "[Plugin: WooCommerce] Stock Status Not Working for Variable Products"

Yeah, I know it seems silly that a public site wouldn't want to be posted in support forums. However, I've had instances where the client notices the forum post comes up with searches and they weren't happy.

If you have a product that is variable with stock management at the variation level and all of the variations are sold out it still shows the product as in stock when viewing products in the dashboard. If this were my store this would be really annoying because I couldn't see quickly what products were sold out.

Also, if the setting to hide sold out products is checked these products are still displayed in categories.

I tried to get around this by adding up the qtys of the variations and entering them at the product level. However when a product was sold it only decremented at the variation level and not the product level.
