# Hide Unavailable / Sold Out Variant Options

This section includes all visibility rules for deleted or sold-out variant options.

Rubik can automatically hide any variant option that customers should not see, including deleted variants and out-of-stock variants.

1. **Hide unavailable (deleted) variants – pills / dropdowns**
Hides text-based options (Size, Length, etc.) when their corresponding variant is deleted in Shopify.

2. **Hide unavailable (deleted) variants – image**
Hides image swatches whose variants were deleted.

3. ** Hide sold out variants – pills / dropdowns**
Hides non-image options if the linked variant is sold out.

4. ** Hide sold out variants – image**
Hides color/image swatches for sold out variants.

### **When to enable these options**

* You deleted variants in Shopify and want a clean picker
* Many variants are sold out and should not be selectable
* You want to prevent customer confusion
* You want a cleaner, more accurate product page

### **When to keep them disabled**

* You prefer showing all options, including sold-out ones
* Your theme uses “Sold Out” labels and you want to keep them visible
