Update 2021 (Only for variable products with 1 dropdown) – thanks to @Alex Banks
Anyway this will really work when there is ONLY ONE dropdown select field (so one attribute for the variations).
With multiple attributes (so multiple dropdown select fields) it displays something that can be wrong depending on the variations stock status attributes terms combination.
See the screenshot at the end that shows a wrong display case…
I have tried the code of Ali_k, but it was not working in my test server when variable products have multiple dropdowns.
So I have made some changes to the Ali_k‘s code to get this working in my test server (with last WooCommerce version).
To handle backorders see: Add backorders stock status to Woocommerce variable product dropdown
The code:
// Function that will check the stock status and display the corresponding additional text
function get_stock_status_text( $product, $name, $term_slug ){
foreach ( $product->get_available_variations() as $variation ){
if($variation['attributes'][$name] == $term_slug ) {
$stock = $variation['is_in_stock'];
break;
}
}
return $stock == 1 ? ' - (In Stock)' : ' - (Out of Stock)';
}
// The hooked function that will add the stock status to the dropdown options elements.
add_filter( 'woocommerce_dropdown_variation_attribute_options_html', 'show_stock_status_in_dropdown', 10, 2);
function show_stock_status_in_dropdown( $html, $args ) {
// Only if there is a unique variation attribute (one dropdown)
if( sizeof($args['product']->get_variation_attributes()) == 1 ) :
$options = $args['options'];
$product = $args['product'];
$attribute = $args['attribute']; // The product attribute taxonomy
$name = $args['name'] ? $args['name'] : 'attribute_' . sanitize_title( $attribute );
$id = $args['id'] ? $args['id'] : sanitize_title( $attribute );
$class = $args['class'];
$show_option_none = $args['show_option_none'] ? true : false;
$show_option_none_text = $args['show_option_none'] ? $args['show_option_none'] : __( 'Choose an option', 'woocommerce' );
if ( empty( $options ) && ! empty( $product ) && ! empty( $attribute ) ) {
$attributes = $product->get_variation_attributes();
$options = $attributes[ $attribute ];
}
$html="<select id="" . esc_attr( $id ) . '" class="' . esc_attr( $class ) . '" name="' . esc_attr( $name ) . '" data-attribute_name="attribute_' . esc_attr( sanitize_title( $attribute ) ) . '" data-show_option_none="' . ( $show_option_none ? 'yes' : 'no' ) . '">';
$html .= '<option value="">' . esc_html( $show_option_none_text ) . '</option>';
if ( ! empty( $options ) ) {
if ( $product && taxonomy_exists( $attribute ) ) {
$terms = wc_get_product_terms( $product->get_id(), $attribute, array( 'fields' => 'all' ) );
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
if ( in_array( $term->slug, $options ) ) {
// HERE Added the function to get the text status
$stock_status = get_stock_status_text( $product, $name, $term->slug );
$html .= '<option value="' . esc_attr( $term->slug ) . '" ' . selected( sanitize_title( $args['selected'] ), $term->slug, false ) . '>' . esc_html( apply_filters( 'woocommerce_variation_option_name', $term->name ) . $stock_status ) . '</option>';
}
}
} else {
foreach ( $options as $option ) {
$selected = sanitize_title( $args['selected'] ) === $args['selected'] ? selected( $args['selected'], sanitize_title( $option ), false ) : selected( $args['selected'], $option, false );
// HERE Added the function to get the text status
$stock_status = get_stock_status_text( $product, $name, $option );
$html .= '<option value="' . esc_attr( $option ) . '" ' . $selected . '>' . esc_html( apply_filters( 'woocommerce_variation_option_name', $option ) . $stock_status ) . '</option>';
}
}
}
$html .= '</select>';
endif;
return $html;
}
Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or theme) or also in any plugin file.
Tested and work in variable products that have only one attribute for variations…
With the code of Ali_K, Here an example of a wrong displayed text for a variable product with multiple select fields (so multiple attributes for variations):
