In the Closed stage, the preorder period has ended, and products are no longer available for purchase. If this is left disabled, then products will continue to be available for immediate purchase when a preorder period ends. You’ll want to enable this stage if the product will no longer be available after the preorder period.

To configure the setting for this rule:

  1. Go to Magical Preorder > Rules, and select the Rule you want to edit. In the Closed Stage section, click the Enable button in the top-right corner, if the section is not already expanded.

  2. Select when your closed stage should start. These two options will only be available if the respective stage is enabled:

    1. Select Active ended to start the closed stage when your active stage has ended.

    2. Select Preview ended to start the closed stage when your preview stage has ended.

  3. Select when your closed stage should end:

    1. Select Do not end if you want it to continue indefinitely.

    2. Select Schedule and choose a date and time.

    3. Select Product variant back in stock to end the closed stage once the product is back in stock.

  4. Add a Message that will be displayed on the product page, such as when the customer can expect the product to be back in stock, or product alternatives.

Once you’ve completed the set up for your first rule, click Save at the top of the admin.

You’ve just finished configuring your first rule. This was the first step in the Initial App Setup, and there is one more step to complete the setup.

There will be a warning on this page that says: “Finish setting up Magical Preorder”. Click Continue Setup to proceed to Step 2.
