This plug-in worked perfectly with the latest Woo Commerce plugin, additionally displaying a count-down timer nicely in the cart. When the timer expires the item is removed from the cart automatically. Nice work! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d2cfa532532d839972e615b2bd811cfa686f8902eca1b543d45feebeafff7b14? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Solved all our backorder problems](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/solved-all-our-backorder-problems/)󠁿 [sometimeska](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sometimeska/) 2 February 2021 We sell unique items and have an immediate response when we post new products for sale. Without this plugin we used to have the problem of selling one item more than once, and then having to process refunds for unhappy customers. People are paying within seconds of each other, and woocommerce can't keep up, so the items then go onto backorder, and once that happens they can be sold again and again. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/77c1d02e02951a6eec393948fbf3039502b58473c1639fd329cbe55c738e7821? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-28742/)󠁿 [ljackl](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ljackl/) 27 November 2020 Works perfectly.

Both work exactly as promised. I was also able to: 1. Add a "Quantity reserved" column to my product list in admin 2. Localize the countdown text for cart expiration thanks to the excellent code in thus plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7c2f4d75c09b4f5ad9020a4410fb178da8fd7581074c5123afa845323f88f958? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[The Bees Knees](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-bees-knees-5/)󠁿 [onleme](https://profiles.wordpress.org/onleme/) 21 November 2019 This Plugin is awesome.
