    Default Make content exclusive to authorized customers only?

    Site url is pfcind.com, 1.5.6c, plugins are lightbox, easy populate, Newsbox Manager. Testimonials Manager, php 7.2,

    This is my first post and I sincerely apologize if this has been addressed elsewhere, I have searched and have not been able to find anything that specifically addresses this question.

    With respect to Customer Details under the View Shop and Prices along with Authorization Pending: 2= May browse but no prices unless logged in & 2= May browse but no prices unless Authorized.

    As a result customers must login to view prices and must be authorized to view those prices.

    I would like to know if there is a built in function or plugin that will display ez pages ONLY for "May browse but no prices unless Authorized"?

    I am trying to make content exclusive to authorized customers only.

    Again, I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere but appreciate your help.

    To the best of my knowledge there is not but you could certainly build such a thing.

    Thank you very much for getting back to me. I am not a coder, but will see what I can do with the bit of information I know.

    It's not built in but yes I do have a module that will control various header, footer and sideboxes for desktop, mobile, guest, retail, wholesale customer or in relation to any setting in the entire site like - hiding content based on the page, category or product, shipping location or login setting.


    Features:
    EZ Pages Navigation Menu Master ON/OFF

    0 = OFF
    1 = Show in Header - Only
    2 = Show in Footer - Only
    3 = Show in Both Header - Footer

    EZ Pages Display Only

    0 = Stock (default)
    1 = Guest ONLY
    2 = Logged in Customer ONLY
    3 = Your Custom Page|Customer to display ON

    You're welcome to contact me directly to discuss your needs.Generic versions of these switches are included in all new releases of Twitch Base6 keeping the stock code/behaviour in place for more efficient troubleshooting/Zen Cart version upgrades.

    Try the attached file ...

    It is a quick and dirty hack - yes, I know I should do the work in the module rather than in the template :-) - but should give you the basis for something.

    Back-up and then replace:
    includes/templates/yourstore/templates/tpl_page_default.php

    I am not really familiar with all the various authorisation settings so have left them all in there. It is fairly obvious how the logic works.

    Thank you very much. I am having a look at it and am sure not far from having it work. I can see that it has restricted viewing when not logged in, if I can only have it allow for authorized customers, I will be in good shape. Thanks again !

    I am guessing with the numbers :-)

    Try changing:

    Code:
        case (isset($_SESSION['customers_authorization']) && (int)$_SESSION['customers_authorization'] == 2):
            // customer is logged in and was changed to must be approved to see prices
            $show_ez = false;
        break;
    to

    Code:
        case (isset($_SESSION['customers_authorization']) && (int)$_SESSION['customers_authorization'] == 2):
            // customer is logged in and was changed to must be approved to see prices
            $show_ez = true;
        break;
    I think that is the case you are after. They are logged in and they are authorised. But ....

    Nick, if you'd like to bundle this up into a plugin, others might find it useful too.
