Product reviews help to get feedback on the purchased items. If you display the product review on the product page, you build trust and transparency for your online selling.

  3. Allow Out of Stock Sales (Overselling): If enabled, this option allows customers to add items to their cart even if the product's inventory is insufficient or out of stock.
