WooCommerce Blocks 5.8.0 Release Notes

A new version of WooCommerce Blocks has been released! Version 5.8.0 is now available for download from GitHub and WordPress.org.

This release contains a new block! When used on a page with the All Products block, the Filter Products by Stock block allows you to provide a way for shoppers visiting a store to filter the visible products by the stock status for the products. Big thanks to @grogou who made this community contribution to the WooCommerce Blocks repository.

There’s also a fix implemented for the Product Category List block which had extra lines appear when used a page configured as the shop page for a store.

Significant effort also went into creating more documentation for various extensibility interfaces related to the Cart and Checkout blocks. This will enhance the available references helping guide extension developers who want to integrate with the blocks.
