Product category visible to all, but buyable only by specific group

[Nordicworming]

Hi! :-) I tried to figure out a way to have a product category that all can see but only registered users can buy. If I make that category available only to a specific user group, it's not showing if I'm a visitor... How can I achieve this? Thanks!

Hi @Nordicworming

Want to do this myself for wholesale only customer access without adding a module but haven't had a chance to get back to it yet. Here are some of my bookmarks I will be going back to...

https://docs.thirtybees.com/merchants-guide/customers/

Think this PS video explains it all: https://www.teapot.co.uk/how-to-add-configure-manage-customer-groups-in-prestashop-1-6/

In the mean time if you figure it out, please post!

Here are some free and paid module options for PS, not sure if they will be compatible with TB now or as time goes on.

Hi @vzex!

@vzex said in Product category visible to all, but buyable only by specific group:

http://store.nemops.com/free-modules/44-product-access.html

That somehow does what I need and claims to be TB compatible. Looks like it is... :grin:

So now I have a "B2B" category with an info asking to register as a business if you want to see category specific prices. If you're in the B2B group, you'll see products and prices. If not, nada...

There is probably a more elegant solution, but since it works I'm fine with it.

@Nordicworming Great! do you mean you got it working under preferences/customers/enable B2B?

Or with nemos module?

Haven't had a chance to get back to it yet to try!

Found another! B2B Validate user registration module has all the features I would want not sure if IT Present will be supporting thirtybees @lesley?

Could only find it for sale on prestashop and no way to contact them directly unless going through prestashop not sure if that goes directly to developer or prestashop customer service

@vzex With Nemo's module. Although I'm still not sure if the shop is doing what I really want it do do. :laughing: Maybe I'll need to post another question in the forum :wink:
