WPWing Smart Wishlist & Product Waitlist for WooCommerce

Two must-have conversion features, one lightweight plugin. WPWing Smart Wishlist & Product Waitlist adds a save-for-later wishlist and automated back in stock email notifications to your WooCommerce store – the two features most shops install two separate plugins to get.

Activate it, and both features are live immediately. No wizard, no shortcodes required (unless you want a dedicated wishlist page), no settings you have to touch. A settings page under WPWing → Settings is there when you want it – disable a feature, customise the restock notification email, change the sender / Reply-To address, or adjust how long guest wishlists are retained.

Requires WooCommerce 9.0 or higher.

Why merchants choose it over two separate plugins

• One install instead of two – one admin menu, one small asset file, one pair of database tables. Fewer updates, fewer conflicts, less weight on every page load.
• Free features others sell – guest wishlist, wishlist demand analytics, waitlist CSV export, and a variation-aware waitlist form are included in the free plugin, not locked behind a Pro tier.
• No ads, no nags – no dashboard banners, no upsell popups, no greyed-out settings teasing an upgrade. Just the features.
• Built for performance – dedicated database tables (no postmeta bloat) and background email sending via Action Scheduler, so a large restock blast never slows down your store or your admin.
• Deliverability done right – every restock alert includes a genuine one-click unsubscribe (RFC 8058 List-Unsubscribe header), the standard Gmail and Yahoo now expect from senders.

WooCommerce Wishlist – let shoppers save products for later

Shoppers can save any product with a single click. The button appears on every product page and toggles between “Add to wishlist” and “Remove from wishlist” via AJAX – no page reload.

• Works for logged-in customers and guests (cookie-based, no account required)
• Guest items carry over automatically when the shopper creates an account or logs in – no duplicates, no lost saves
• [wpwing_wishlist] shortcode renders the shopper’s saved products anywhere on your site, with an inline Remove button
• Wishlist data stored in a dedicated database table – not post meta

Back in Stock Notifications – automated product waitlist

When a product or variation goes out of stock, an email capture form appears on the product page automatically. When stock is restored, subscribers receive a restock notification email and can return to buy – recovering sales you would otherwise lose to “out of stock”.

• Variation-aware: the form shows and hides in real time as a shopper selects different options – only out-of-stock selections trigger the form
• Unlimited subscribers and unlimited restock alerts – no monthly caps, no per-email pricing
• Notifications dispatched via Action Scheduler (bundled with WooCommerce) so a large restock batch never slows down your admin
• Every notification email includes a one-click unsubscribe link
• Honeypot field blocks automated spam signups without captcha friction

Know what to restock and what to promote

• WPWing → Waitlist – paginated table of all signups, filterable by status, with one-click CSV export for your email marketing tools
• WPWing → Wishlist – top 50 most-saved products ranked by wishlist count, so you can spot demand before it shows in sales

For Developers
