    The product visibility by user type feature does not seem to be working. Guest can view the product page after I enabled the settings for subscriber, customer and admin only.

      Hi Tal,

      Please try clearing the cache if you use any caching plugins and enabling “Modify Query” options.

    Hello!
    I purchased this plugin to be able to make certain products available to customer roles.. Unfortunately, the other day, when I was updating the products
    that I would like to be hidden or visible.. It crashed my website and I can no longer use the plug in..

    Is there a work around or an update to fix this? I sent an email about it, but I didn’t get a reply yet!

    Thanks,
    Emily

    Hi, this feature works well. However, if a user is not able to view any product, it will show error 500. Is it possible to redirect to an error page?

      Apart from this, how can I allow my shop manager to pick some other custom role when setting the visibility of products?

      Hi,

      I have just checked and it should be redirecting to 404 page, are you sure it’s showing error 500? Unfortunately it’s not currently possible to change the error code or modify module settings visibility yet.

      Yes, it is error 500. Is there any hook that we can make a custom plugin / filter to show a proper error screen instead of 500 error page?
      Besides, our shop manager unable to pick any other user roles (as well as custom roles) except “customer” in product visibility. Again, is there any hook that we can make a custom plugin / filter to enhance?
      Thanks

    I’m going to use the module to hide products from unregistered visitors. However, I have a concern: will the plugin hide multiple products under a category at the same time?

      Hi Suzie,

      Unfortunately it’s not currently possible to configure this by category yet but you could use bulk edit options to apply the same settings to multiple products at a time.

    Hi there,

    I am wondering if this plugin is compatible with the WP All Import plug-in?

    Regards,

    Matt

      Hi Matt,

      It should work because WP All Import uses meta data, same as Booster. You could try out free version of Booster or on your staging site first if you would like.

    Hi,
    I have a shop catalogue page but the products are still being displayed when visibility has been disabled for that user. The only thing this plugin is doing is hiding it from being purchased.
    Is there a solution built into this plugin which hides it from the catalogue page?
    Cheers

      Hi,

      I would recommend trying to enable “Modify Query” options to see if it fixes the issue.

    We are using this plugin to hide specific products from certain customers but even though the hidden products are not shown on the shop pages there is a gap where the product would have been leaving lots of empty gaps all over our shop. How can we stop this from happening?

      Hi,

      That shouldn’t be happening. Could you try enabling “Modify Query” options to see if they have any effect?

      Hi Rubb,

      You can create custom user roles using a different module in this plugin called “Booster General Tools”.

    Hi.

    I am using this on my staging and it is working, meaning the products don’t show, but the hidden products are still searchable. Is that how you made it work by default? Will you consider making this feature also hide the products from the search results?

    Thanks,
    Francisco

      Correction: It does not show on the search results if you hit enter but rather on the search preview that pops on the header’s hearch bar.

    I’m using this module to hide products from unregistered users. Most of the product is only for registered users. I’m having a conflict with the pagination, though. When an unregistered user searches for a tag like “levi”, it’s returning 13 products, but since it’s only allowing the user to see four, the pagination shows 2 pages, one with the four products they’re allowed to see marked items 1-12 of 13, and a second blank page that says items 13-13 of 13. How can I run the count again to get the pagination to show the correct number of results?

    THANK YOU!!!! 🙂

      Okay, I think it might be coming from the Adv Woo Search plug-in, not the one from the booster. Thanks anyway! Sorry for the trouble. You can delete these.

    Activating the query option for this plugin (in both Dev and Stable) kills my system entirely. Completely crashed one server so badly I had to restore from backup.

    I am currently trialing this facility on my staging site but it only seems to work when the allowed role is the user’s primary role. When additional capabilites field is set to a group on the user’s profile, this plugin does not recognise it.

    Am I missing something?

    Thanks

      Hi Matt,

      Yes, you are right – I’ve checked the code and it was considering only first user role. I’ve made necessary changes, so it should (hopefully) work correctly now, i.e. consider all user roles. Please download the development version here – http://booster.io/dev/. You will need to uninstall the old version first (don’t worry your saved settings won’t disappear). And please let me know if it’s ok now.

      Best regards,
      Tom
