Hide out of stock options
Paper includes built-in settings to control how unavailable product options are displayed to customers. You can choose to hide them completely or show them as disabled.
Using theme settings
Go to Online Store > Themes > Customize
Click Theme settings (gear icon)
Navigate to Product options
Find the Unavailable indication setting
Choose your preferred option:
Show as disabled - Displays unavailable options with a strikethrough (default)
When option is not available - Hides unavailable options completely
Do not indicate - Shows all options as available
Click Save
Recommendation
Show as disabled is recommended because it:
Shows customers all available variations
Clearly indicates what's temporarily unavailable
Helps customers understand the full product range
May encourage customers to check back later
Hide unavailable options if:
You want to keep the interface clean
Unavailable options are permanently discontinued
You have many options and want to reduce clutter
Need more control?
For advanced CSS customization beyond these settings, see our advanced customization guide.
