Fig. 21
#### ๐ฒ **Random Mode**
If random mode is turned on, youโll need to set a **range of numbers (from X to Y)**.\
The message will randomly pick a number from that range to show (see Fig. 22).
**Example:** *โOnly 5 items left in stock!โ*
Fig. 22
#### ๐ **Real Data Mode**
To use real stock data from your store, turn **off** the random mode toggle (see Fig. 22.1)
Fig. 22.1
Then, set the stock **threshold** โ this means the message will only appear when the number of items left drops **below a certain amount** (see Fig. 23)
**Example:** If you set the threshold to **10**, the message will appear when stock reaches **9 or less**, and it will show the actual number in the message
