Why are my products showing as out of stock in my Shopify webshop ?
If your products appear out of stock on your Shopify storefront but show stock in the backend, this is typically a Shopify configuration issue — not a Droppery sync issue.
Here are the most common causes:
1. Product status
Make sure the product is set to Active and added to your Online Store sales channel. A product that is not assigned to a sales channel will not be visible or purchasable.
2. Location settings (very important)
Shopify works with inventory locations. The location used by Droppery must be:
- Active
- Assigned to the product
- Enabled for your Online Store sales channel
If the wrong location is selected, Shopify may show 0 stock on the frontend — even if stock exists in the backend.
Check your location settings under Shopify → Settings → Locations and make sure the Droppery location is correctly assigned to your products and sales channel.
