<h2><strong>Show</strong><strong> or hide products by user role</strong></h2>
<p>WooCommerce Hide Products Visibility by User Role offers two ways to manage your catalog visibility:</p>
<h4><strong>1)  Hide Products</strong></h4>
<p>With the “Hide” feature, you can choose to hide selected products and categories from specific user roles and guests. For example, if you choose to hide product A and category B from general customers, they will remain hidden for general customers only whereas the other users will be able to view them.</p>
<h4><strong>2)  Show (Assign) Products</strong></h4>
<p>Instead of hiding, you can choose to “Show” i.e., assign products and categories from specific user roles and guests. By using this feature, you can limit the catalog visibility for any user role. No other products will be visible except the ones you have assigned them.</p>
<p>For example, If you choose to show product A and category B to wholesale customers, they will remain visible to wholesale customers only whereas all other products and categories will no longer be displayed. At the same time, by using the “global visibility” settings you can hide product A and category B from guests and all registered customers. This will make product A and category B explicit to wholesale user role only.</p>

<h2><strong>Show custom message or redirect to another link:</strong></h2>
<p>The extension comes with 2 different redirection modes that allow you to redirect users to another URL or show them a custom message.  You customize different error messages and redirection links for different user roles.</p>

<h2><strong>Global settings to hide products for guests & registered users</strong></h2>
