If i clone a product then put the avail since date as january 1st 2011 will it change its self to available if set to disabled or how does that option work?
anybody? I just need to know if the cart will change it to active from disabled or if the product needs to be active all the time.

“Available Since” is used to allow a product to be made active on a certain date - think of videogame preorders or movie tickets. It’s use otherwise is just a informative datestamp.
so can i use it to hide the product from customers until a certain date? For example im running some new years sales and dont want the new prices shown until jan 1st, but at the same time dont want to be up at midnight changing everything.
