Thanks, Karol")* Nicolas, First picture shows a case on product listing page where: quantity of a product > 0 and I customized Czech translation of X_ITEMS_IN_STOCK="skladem" (meaning in-stock, without showing number of items in stock) Second picture shows a case on product listing page where: quanity of a product = unlimited, nothing is displayed on product listing page about quantity in this case What I am looking for in second case is to have an option to display some text on product listing page (something like pre-order or available on demand) if the quantity of the product is unlimited.

If I use your code I will get "in-stock" displayed for products of unlimited quantity which is not what I want.

Thanks, Karol")* Hello, The idea is still the same (replacing the display of the translation by a raw text) but the code of HikaShop changed a lot during the past 5 years (and 9 months). If you want to know which view you need to customize, I recommend you to activate temporally the setting "display view files" : [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...g.html#advanced\_main](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/54-hikashop-config.html#advanced_main) It will add some "debug" display very useful when you wan to perform view overrides and know what you need to edit.
