BlackSheepWarrior on "[Plugin: WooCommerce] Stock status stuck on notify"

Hello,
I am having an issue with the display of in stock out of stock products. Everything was working great until some recent updates.
1. I use Stitch labs to manage stock and inventory but the majority of the products I sell are not made/ordered until they are sold. So frequently stock is 0 or a negative number.

I use Woocomerce advanced Bulk edit to manage my numerous variations and products.

The problem.

If I have manage stock enabled then my variations show out of stock if they are 0 or less on some products. When I bulk edit to show them in stock the check mark disappears. So my solution was to manage the inventory at the product level and enable back orders without notifying the customer. However, when I do this, the product page shows the backorder notification and in some cases shows as out of stock.

I have since deactivated manage stock completely on a global level and while that works, it is not a permanent fix as I do have some products that I want to manage stock on in the future.

I believe the issue is a bug related to the allow backorders toggle at the product level.

I have compared the settings between the problem products and the working ones and cannot find any difference. On the products list page I have quick edited to show in stock and allow back orders as well.

Thanks,
Will
