Brandon Kruse: Brandon Kruse: we should be able to control the default filters that show when customers open the app. I think as we are attracting new customers they should immediately see products that are IN STOCK ready to ship. And then as they get more comfortable, they will begin to play with filters and toggles and they can click SHOW ALL ITEMS (sold out items) and they can scroll items to waitlist.

I think the option should be up to us on the back end.

Jason Zientarski: I think we can set the default filter on the mobile app with a shop setting that you can control

Limiting what the backend serves up to the app could be tricky, because it will remove shop the look posts by default

Brandon Kruse: any updates on this?

Jason Zientarski: had to escalate this to backend dev since it requires an app change. It won't be in this next release (live replay) but should be in the release after that. We're thinking of making it so that you can chose how you want the app to behave for the customer and even do it per-collection - where some collections you may want to show sold out vs not

Brandon Kruse: yes. That would be ideal. In shopify we set each collection sort order individual.

Brandon Kruse: just had another idea. What if we had the ability to create tabs / collections based on Inventory Quantity? In shopify we can set automatic rules that add any product with inventory greater than 0 to the collection. This would give us more more flexibility and even the ability to make a tab called “SOLD OUT” where customers could scroll through all the sold out items if they want to browse and randomly add some of those items to their waitlists! We would just set that tab to display all inventory with 0 quantity. And the others we would set to >0

That might be easier for you to program than to change a default filter setting.
