Installation

Install or update the plugin

Run the commands from the Shopware project root. For a fresh installation, refresh the plugin list and activate the plugin:

bin/console plugin:refresh
bin/console plugin:install --activate SteelCodePreorderStockPriceNotifier
bin/console database:migrate --all
bin/console cache:clear

For an installed plugin, use the update command instead:

bin/console plugin:update SteelCodePreorderStockPriceNotifier
bin/console database:migrate --all
bin/console cache:clear

If the plugin files were changed locally, rebuild the affected assets:

bin/build-administration.sh
bin/build-storefront.sh

Finish the setup

1. Open Extensions → My extensions → Preorder, Stock & Price Notifier → Configure.
2. Review the global buttons and listing options described in Configuration.
3. Verify that Shopware can send email.
4. Start a message consumer before testing automatic notifications. See Emails and queue.
5. Configure one test product and submit test requests in a non-production sales channel first.

What installation adds

The plugin creates records for preorder settings and customer requests. It also installs mail-template types for stock availability, price drops, administration notices, and preorder stock availability.

Do not uninstall the plugin in production merely to troubleshoot it. Uninstalling without retaining user data removes the plugin tables and installed mail templates.
