Thanks Pam")* Hi, I suppose you're talking about the "waitlist", not the "wishlist". The "waitlist" is the name of the mechanism for users to be notified when out of stock products are restocked. Note that by default the notification email to the administrator when someone subscribe to a waitlist is deactivated. If you want to use that capability, you need to activate the "Wait list administrator notification" email in the menu System>Emails of HikaShop. Also, you need to make sure that the cron task is working. You can follow this tutorial to make sure the cron is properly configured: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...cron-task.html#check](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/55-hikashop-cron-task.html#check) Also, the system won't immediately notify the user that the product has stock again. It will take a while based on the settings of your cron and the settings of the HikaShop waitlist plugin. Finally, note that you can check users are properly subscribed to the waitlist via the menu Customer>Waitlist. And you can check the email sent to the administrator and the email sent to the user in the menu Customers>Emails history, once they are sent.

Thanks Pam")* I have two follow-up questions: 1. When the user clicks the button to be notified of product available to purchase, they input their name and email and then click OK. But they stay on that page. Is there a way for me to tell the system that once OK is clicked, to take that user back to the product listing or at least the product they were on? 2. Cron is set up to do 15 minutes at a minimum. That means when I'm testing it, I have to wait 15 minutes to see if it works. Can I reduce that 15 to like 5 minutes?

Thanks Pam")* Hi, Thanks. 1. You can edit the file product / waitlist via the menu Display>Views. There, you can add the line: Code: <input type="hidden" name="redirect_url" value="<?php echo @$this->product_url; ?>" /> after the line: Code: <input type="hidden" name="ctrl" value="product" /> 2. The cron task we provide cannot go lower than 15 minutes. That's because our servers need to trigger each user's website every time and it would be too taxing on them in the long run. However, you can configure the cron to be triggered by your own server or a third party service: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...ron-task.html#server](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/55-hikashop-cron-task.html#server) You'll find many services like [ cron-job.org/en/](https://cron-job.org/en/) which can do that for you. And in that case, you can reduce the time to whatever the service / your hosting allows.
