Hi. I have a potential customer looking at ProductCart but only wants to display prices to people that have logged into the system. Is it possible?

Hi,
Yes - See http://wiki.earlyimpact.com/how_to/hide_product_prices - http://wiki.earlyimpact.com/how_to/hide_product_prices
If this is a retail store then personally I would always be wary of hiding prices from potential retail customers as it is a hassle on any website to register, it's easier to just move on to another site. Wholesale is, of course, a different market, as are an existing customer base.

We have a client who is not interested in SEO because their customers already know them and they simply do not allow the general public access to the site. So the site visitor literally gets stopped at a log in demand. Once t hey log in, it is a normal store. This required custom mods.

In another site, only wholesale prices are stored in the products. When a visitor arrives, products are displayed. All customers are wholesale for this store, so once they log in, they see prices. This is stock functionality and required no mods.
