<p>Role Membership Access for WooCommerce lets you restrict WooCommerce product visibility, purchasing, add-to-cart, cart, and checkout access based on WordPress user roles.</p>
<p>You can:<br />
* Restrict access using <strong>Category Allowed Roles</strong> (Products <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Categories).<br />
* Restrict access using <strong>Product Allowed Roles</strong> with <strong>Access Mode</strong> (Products <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Edit Product).<br />
* Prevent unauthorized users from:<br />
  – Viewing restricted products in the shop/catalog (theme dependent, hardened via filters)<br />
  – Adding restricted products to cart<br />
  – Purchasing restricted products<br />
  – Completing checkout if restricted products are in cart</p>
<p>The plugin provides:<br />
* A WooCommerce Settings tab: WooCommerce <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> WooRole Access<br />
* Per-category role restrictions<br />
* Per-product role restrictions with Access Mode (Inherit / Manual / Combine)<br />
* Multi-category conflict strategy options (Union / Intersection / Priority Category)<br />
* Optional redirect for unauthorized users<br />
* A reliable inline notice shown above product title (supports block themes)</p>
<h3>Setup / Configuration</h3>
<h4>Step 1: Configure global plugin settings</h4>
<p>Go to:<br />
WooCommerce <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> WooRole Access</p>
<p>Available settings:<br />
1. Restriction Message<br />
   – The message displayed when a user is blocked.<br />
2. Redirect Unauthorized Users<br />
   – If enabled, blocked users will be redirected to the URL below.<br />
3. Redirect URL<br />
   – Recommended: My Account page or a custom “Join Membership” page.<br />
4. Multi-Category Strategy<br />
   – Determines behavior when a product belongs to multiple restricted categories:<br />
     – Union (OR): allowed roles from any restricted category (recommended default)<br />
     – Intersection (AND): user must match all restricted categories<br />
     – Priority Category: use only the product’s “Primary Category”<br />
5. Default Primary Category (for Priority Strategy)<br />
   – Used as a default selection for products when Priority Strategy is enabled.</p>
<h4>Step 2: Restrict categories (recommended first)</h4>
<p>Go to:<br />
Products <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Categories <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Add/Edit Category</p>
<p>Set:<br />
Allowed Roles (multi-select)</p>
<p>Behavior:<br />
* If a category has Allowed Roles set, products in that category are restricted depending on their Product Access Mode.</p>
<h4>Step 3: Restrict individual products (when needed)</h4>
<p>Go to:<br />
Products <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Edit Product <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Product data <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> General</p>
<p>Fields:<br />
1. Access Mode<br />
   – Inherit from Categories (default)<br />
   – Manual Override<br />
   – Combine (Manual + Categories)<br />
2. Allowed Roles (Manual)<br />
   – Used only for Manual Override or Combine<br />
3. Primary Category (for Priority Strategy)<br />
   – Used only when global Multi-Category Strategy = Priority Category</p>
<h3>How Access Mode Works</h3>
<h4>Inherit from Categories</h4>
<p>The product uses category Allowed Roles only.<br />
* If no categories have restrictions, product is unrestricted.</p>
<h4>Manual Override</h4>
<p>The product ignores category restrictions and uses Allowed Roles (Manual) only.</p>
<h4>Combine (Manual + Categories)</h4>
<p>The product is accessible if the user matches either:<br />
* Product manual roles OR<br />
* Category roles</p>
<h3>Multi-Category Strategy (Conflict Handling)</h3>
<p>When a product belongs to multiple categories with different Allowed Roles:</p>
<p>1) Union (OR)<br />
– Allowed roles are combined from all restricted categories.<br />
– Prevents accidental lockouts. Recommended for most stores.</p>
<p>2) Intersection (AND)<br />
– Allowed roles are the overlap of restricted category roles.<br />
– Can lock products if categories disagree (use carefully).</p>
<p>3) Priority Category<br />
– Only one category drives access.<br />
– Select a Primary Category in product settings.<br />
– Optionally set a Default Primary Category globally to reduce per-product setup.</p>
<h3>Blocking Behavior</h3>
<p>If a user is not authorized:<br />
* Product may be hidden from catalog (theme dependent)<br />
* User cannot add to cart<br />
* User cannot proceed with checkout if restricted items are in the cart<br />
* Notice is injected above the product title (block-theme friendly)<br />
* Optional redirect can be enabled</p>
<h3>Example: Restrict a Category to Subscriber Only</h3>
<ol>
<li>Go to Products <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Categories</li>
<li>Edit the category (example: “Members Only”)</li>
<li>In Allowed Roles, select: subscriber</li>
<li>Save</li>
</ol>
<p>All products in that category will be restricted based on their Access Mode:<br />
– Inherit: category restriction applies<br />
– Manual: product manual roles apply instead<br />
– Combine: both apply</p>
<h3>Example: Restrict a Product to Editor Only</h3>
<ol>
<li>Go to Products <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Edit Product</li>
<li>Product Data <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> General</li>
<li>Access Mode: Manual Override</li>
<li>Allowed Roles (Manual): editor</li>
<li>Save</li>
</ol>
<p>Result: only users with editor role can view/purchase.</p>
