Running multiple WooCommerce stores often creates the same operational problem: stock drift<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n You update stock on one site, but another site still shows the old quantity. That can lead to oversells, customer frustration, and messy fulfilment.<\/p>\n\n Kitgenix Stock Sync for WooCommerce<\/strong> solves this with a secure, practical model:<\/p>\n\n This plugin is designed to be lightweight:\n- No third-party SaaS.\n- No custom database tables.\n- Uses WooCommerce + WordPress primitives (REST API, options, product meta, transients, WooCommerce logging, Action Scheduler).<\/p>\n\n Stock state is synced per SKU, including:\n- stock quantity\n- stock status\n- backorders\n- low stock amount<\/p>\n\n Note: this plugin is focused on inventory syncing. It does not sync pricing, product content, images, or orders.<\/p>\n\n 1) Stock changes are captured on each store using WooCommerce stock hooks.<\/p>\n\n 2) Children send events to the Master; the Master applies incoming events locally and then pushes authoritative stock state<\/strong> out to all enabled children.<\/p>\n\n 3) The Master can also run a Reconcile<\/strong> operation to push stock state for all products in batches.<\/p>\n\n This plugin supports SKU renames by maintaining an internal, stable identifier (a \u201cGID\u201d) stored as product meta:\n- When SKUs change on the Master, the plugin emits a Tip: Run Reconcile<\/strong> on the Master after initial setup. Reconcile establishes stable GIDs for products that don\u2019t already have one, which makes SKU rename sync reliable.<\/p>\n\n Child stores can optionally enable Strict checkout validation<\/strong>:\n- During checkout, the child queries the Master\u2019s stock for SKUs in the cart.\n- If the Master reports the SKU is out of stock or insufficient (with backorders disabled), checkout is blocked.\n- If the Master can\u2019t be reached, validation is fail-open<\/strong> to avoid breaking checkout.<\/p>\n\n You can exclude SKUs (comma or new line separated). Excluded SKUs are ignored for:\n- outbound stock events\n- reconcile batches\n- strict checkout validation\n- audit checks<\/p>\n\n From the plugin admin screen:\n- Test Connection<\/strong> (ping the configured store)\n- Reconcile (Master)<\/strong>: push authoritative stock state to all children in batches\n- Manual SKU Sync (Master)<\/strong>: push a specific set of SKUs to all children\n- Audit Children (Master)<\/strong>: query each child\u2019s local stock fields and compare against the Master\n- Event Log + Backlog<\/strong>: see recent events and failed pushes, and clear logs when needed\n- Status<\/strong>: last inbound\/outbound health timestamps and last error message<\/p>\n\n Text domain:\nkitgenix-stock-sync-for-woocommerce<\/p>\n\n Option key:\n- Option schema (high-level):\n- Product meta key:\n- REST API routes (POST):\n- Authentication headers:\n- Signatures:\n- HMAC SHA-256 over: Action Scheduler hooks:\n- (Action group: Admin capability:\n- Admin nonces:\n- Filters:\n- Transients (dynamic keys):\n- Object cache (if persistent object cache is enabled):\n- Cache group: Internal action hooks (called directly, but can be hooked):\n- This plugin includes a shared \u201cKitgenix hub\u201d component in wp-admin which may fetch publicly available plugin metadata from WordPress.org using WordPress core\u2019s Caching:\n- Transient: This plugin does not otherwise connect to third-party services as part of its stock sync. It does make REST requests between your own WordPress sites (Master and Child stores). These requests may include:\n- product SKUs\n- stock state (quantity\/status\/backorders\/low stock)<\/p>\n\n Strict checkout validation on children sends SKUs in the cart to the Master for stock verification.<\/p>\n\n This plugin removes its settings and plugin-only transients on uninstall. It does not remove WooCommerce product meta or Action Scheduler records.<\/p>\n\n Removed on uninstall:\n- Option: Multisite:\n- Removes per-site options and transients for each site.<\/p>\n\n If you want to remove all plugin data, you can also delete:\n- the product meta If this plugin saves you admin time or helps prevent oversells across multiple stores, you can support ongoing development here:\nhttps:\/\/donate.stripe.com\/9B65kDgG3fTQ2Kzcmwf7i00<\/p>\n\n Built with \u2764\ufe0e by @kitgenix - https:\/\/kitgenix.com<\/p>\n\n\n Yes. This plugin hooks WooCommerce product stock APIs and requires WooCommerce to be active.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. This plugin is designed for a single authoritative Master store and one or more children.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. It syncs stock state only.<\/p><\/dd>\n Per SKU: stock quantity, stock status, backorders, and low stock amount.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Variations are synced by their own variation SKU.<\/p><\/dd>\n External\/Affiliate and Grouped products are skipped for stock syncing (these types are not stock-managed in WooCommerce).<\/p><\/dd>\n Failed pushes are recorded in the Backlog and retried automatically using WooCommerce\u2019s Action Scheduler when available.<\/p><\/dd>\n Strict checkout validation is fail-open: it logs a warning and does not block checkout if the Master cannot be reached.<\/p><\/dd>\n Add SKUs in Configuration \u2192 Exclusions. Excluded SKUs are ignored across all sync and tooling paths.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n Update: Improved the Kitgenix admin header layout for better alignment and less clutter.\nUpdate: Social links in admin headers now render as compact icon buttons (with accessible labels).\nUpdate: Added responsive header helpers so titles\/description and actions\/links lay out consistently.\nFix: Added defensive notice normalization to keep WordPress admin notices above the Kitgenix header.\nUpdate: Admin tables inside Kitgenix pages now use Kitgenix styling for a more consistent branded look.\nFix: Added spacing between adjacent action links\/buttons (e.g., Edit\/Delete).\nFix: Escaped shared Kitgenix hub card media output for WordPress coding standards compliance.\nMaintenance: Updated the plugin Author URI to the public Kitgenix WordPress.org profile and replaced the old custom admin-menu icon CSS with the native Dashicons icon.<\/p>\n\n\n
