What your Lead Time plugin does
A focused WooCommerce lead time plugin. You set a default message, then change it for products that are out of stock or made to order.
Default lead time
One message for all products, such as Ships in 3 to 5 days.
By stock status
Show a different time for in stock, out of stock and backorder items.
Your wording
Set the text and color so it fits your product pages.
One settings page
Its own item in your WordPress admin menu, so options are easy to find and change.
Good to know: The message appears on product pages and is not a live delivery estimate. Courier tracking and delivery date pickers are separate builds.
Tell Ora what you need. Check the plan before you pay.
Describe your WooCommerce Lead Time Plugin in your own words. Ora replies with a plan and a price. Nothing is built until you approve it.

In this build: Lead times are text messages you set. Countdowns to a cutoff time and delivery date calculations are not in this plan.
Want more? Add it to your request:
Lead time in cart. Show the lead time again next to each item in the cart.
Per product override. Set a different lead time on single products.
Ora builds it together with the plugin and the quote goes up to match. You see the new price before you pay. One plugin never costs more than $39. If it needs more than one plugin, Ora quotes each one. Or add it later as a separate build.
How to set up Lead Time

2. Choose where it shows
On the product page, the cart and in the order email.
3. Describe it to Ora
