In stock, Product available with different options and allowed backorders.
This sticker shows one of these 3 messages "In stock", "Product available with different options" and a custom label to say backorders are allowed. The former 2 are easy to understand. Let's talk about the last one. Two are two places to set a custom label saying back order allowed, a) The "Label of out-of-stock products with allowed backorders" field on the BO > Shop Parameters > Product Settings Page. b) the "Label when out of stock (and back order allowed)" field on the product editing page. If the later one is set, then the former one will be ignored.

- Create a custom sticker, set the "Sticker" option to "Custom". Because of it's a image sticker, so fill in the "Width" and "Height" fields with the weight and height of the image. The last step is upload the image.

Why the Sticker modules is empty on the product editing page.
That's a quick access when you can choose custom stickers for the current product. It's empty which means you've add any customer stickers yet. Native stickers will not show out there, no need to manually choose native stickers for products, native stickers will show out according to product configurations.
