Description
WDA Automated Store is a time-saving solution for WooCommerce store administrators. This plugin automates the process of changing product visibility when stock status changes. For example, when a product goes out of stock, you can configure the plugin to automatically hide the product or set it to “Search Only” after a specified delay (e.g., 72 hours). You can also choose the exact time of day to trigger the visibility change.
Additionally, when a product is restocked, the plugin will automatically restore the product’s visibility status to “Catalog & Search.” This plugin reduces the need for manual intervention, streamlining store management.
Future updates will include more automated actions for WooCommerce.

- Automatic Restore: Automatically restores visibility to “Catalog & Search” when a product is back in stock.
