# Widgets

> Create and manage Stocksy storefront widgets for back-in-stock, price-drop, and coming-soon alerts.

The **Widgets** page is where you turn alert types on and manage how they appear on your storefront. Open it from the Stocksy app sidebar or from **Customize Widgets** on the Home dashboard.

## Widget types

Stocksy includes three widgets. Each card shows an **On** / **Off** status, a short description, and actions.

| Widget                   | What it does                                                 | Plan            |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------- |
| **Back in stock**        | Lets shoppers get notified when sold-out items are restocked | Free and paid   |
| **Price drop alert**     | Alerts customers when a product's price drops                | Free and paid   |
| **Coming soon waitlist** | Builds a waitlist for upcoming product launches              | Paid plans only |

<Note>
  **Coming soon waitlist** is not available on the free plan. Upgrade to a paid plan to unlock it.
</Note>

## Actions on each widget

Every widget card has two buttons:

* **Customize** — open the editor for button text, form content, success message, and styles
* **Add to theme** — add or place the widget in your Shopify theme

Check **Extension status** inside each customize screen. It should show **Active** when the theme extension is connected.

## Customize a widget

1. Go to **Widgets** in the Stocksy app.
2. Find the widget you want.
3. Click **Customize**.
4. Update settings in the left panel and confirm them in the live preview on the right.
5. Save your changes.
