Managing product quantities in your WooCommerce store is crucial for ensuring inventory control and providing a seamless shopping experience for your customers. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to set up minimum and maximum quantities using the Min-Max Quantities plugin by Bright Plugins.
Step 1: Plugin Installation and Initial Setup
First, install and activate the Min-Max Quantities plugin. Once the plugin is installed, navigate to Bright Plugins > Min-Max Quantities in your WordPress dashboard. This is where you will configure the global settings for your store.
Step 2: Enable Global Minimum and Maximum Quantities
In General Options, you will see Global Setting. Enable global “Quantities” to apply the configuration globally in the store. This option will ensure that the minimum and maximum quantity rules you set will apply to all products across your store.
If you do not enable this option, the min/max quantity rules will not be applied globally, and you will need to configure them individually for each product.
