# Low inventory message

> Feature introduced in Broadcast 3.2

Build a sense of urgency with Broadcast's low inventory message option in the product form:

The message is customizable in the **Language Editor** for your theme and supports HTML. You can change the message and add basic styles:

## How to setup

There are three basic steps needed for the inventory countdown to appear correctly:

{% hint style="success" %}
Steps

* **Enable inventory tracking** in your product setup. The low inventory message is triggered if a product has 10 items or less available.
* Turn on the setting in the **Product form block** for the default product template or any product template in use. This feature requires Broadcast 3.2.0 or higher. 
* **Optional** - Customize the message in the Language Editor. 
  {% endhint %}

### Enable inventory tracking

Use the **Track quantity** option in your Product setup and set an available value:

### Product form block setting

In the Theme Editor, click on the Product form block for the settings options. Toggle on **Show inventory countdown**:

![Theme Editor -> Default product template -> Form](/files/SmfJjId1hYqg8bneZweD)

### Customize the message

The message you display for any/all languages can be customized in the Language Editor:

Use the search box to quickly find the correct field. Type in: **`Remaining`**

![Use the Search box to help find Remaining html](/files/2AC3nXxfdIBSrRkxslma)

Under **Product**, you should see **Remaining html**. 

Here you can customize the message. Use the key code `{{ inventory }}` to display the counter value. 

Update for all your languages if your shop supports multiple languages. 

{% hint style="info" %}
**Tip**\
You can tweak the message with basic HTML to add some style
{% endhint %}

Here's an example of what we used to bring in the theme's primary color:

Code snippet:

```
<span style='color:var(---color-primary)'>&#9658;</span> Hurry, Only <strong>{{ inventory }}</strong> Left!
```
