Hey,

I know there is the option to hide a category from Retail customers so only Wholesale customers can see them, but Is there a way to hide a category from Wholesale customers? I need to do this so the wholesale customers dont get confused and try to buy product that is located in the retail folders...which have different options they are unable to purchase.

Maybe it is possible to duplicate the code for hiding it from retail customers and just switch the customer type number? C'mon I know you guys are smart. Look at the file named modCata.asp in the grooveadmin folder.

Thanks...
Shawn

Hi Shawn,

You could put all the wholesalers categories under a root category called wholesalers and then make sure that all the products under that category are 'display to wholesalers only'

When the wholesalers click the link thats all they see- retail customers won't see anything

Hopefully that will do what you want without any hard coding.
