<p>Products Visibility by User Roles extension enables you to hide products and categories for specific user roles. You can manage visibility for multiple user roles, and display a custom error message or redirect to another URL when a user tries to access a restricted product or category.</p>
<p>You can also manage visibility for guest users, and choose to allow/disallow Google to rank the restricted pages. The products will remain hidden from shop, categories, search, and other listing pages.</p>

<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>
<p>You can hide products and categories from guests and registered users. This global WooCommerce hide product feature comes in handy when you want to hide your entire store or specific products from guests and all registered users irrespective of their user role.</p>

<h2><strong>Allow search engines to rank your pages</strong></h2>
<p>You can choose to allow/disallow search engines to crawl and rank your private products and categories that are restricted for guest users.</p>
<h2><strong>FAQs:</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Can I hide the entire catalog from guest users?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, you can hide the entire catalog from guest users.</p>
<p><strong>Can I hide the complete category from guest users?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, you can hide the category and its products. Please note the category links will may remain visible, however, when a restricted user will click on those, they will see the restriction message that the category is not available for them.</p>
<p><strong>Can I show a specific product or category to retailers only and keep it hidden for everyone else? How do we do that?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, You can assign a specific product or category to 1 or more user roles and keep it hidden for the other registered and guest users. See the <a href="https://woocommerce.com/document/products-visibility-by-user-roles/">documentation</a> on how to do this.</p>
<p><strong>The hidden products will no longer be visible in the shop, categories, and search result pages?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, the hidden products will no longer be displayed in listing and search result pages. If a customer accesses it with a direct link, a custom error message will be displayed. However, in some cases, you might need to remove them manually from your menu.</p>

<p><strong>Store Display</strong> gives WooCommerce stores 12+ professional product layouts plus built-in wishlist analytics, product compare, quick view, direct shop page integration, layout cloning, and JSON export/import. One plugin instead of four or five.</p>
<p>Most store owners end up installing separate plugins for product grids, wishlists, comparison tables, and quick view popups. Store Display replaces all of them.
