Add-on
Item Alerts
Lets a customer ask to be told when a sold-out product is back in stock, or when an upcoming lottery opens. A "Tell me when it's back" / "Tell me when it opens" button appears on the product or lottery page, and each customer who pressed it gets one email and one in-site notification the moment it's ready. Deactivate and the button goes; the alerts already set are kept.

Version 1.0.4 18 Oct 2026
