Developer

By default you don't have to modify any code of template file. Because the plugin automatically displays out of stock note right after product title in single product page (as seen above).

If you want to display the out of stock note at other places, use the codes below.

Getting individual note value: get_post_meta($post->ID, '_out_of_stock_note', true);

Getting global note value: get_option('woocommerce_out_of_stock_note');
