    red flag Member Approval?

    I am working on a website in which is a non-profit organization...and they would like ANYONE to be able to travel the whole store...and see what is available...but only AUTHORIZED "customers" or "users" be able to actually make purchases... is there any add-on right now that will allow me to do this?

    The only other option I see is to make it so you have to "log in" to see the store...but then only certain people will be able to see exactly what they are doing.


    Let me know,
    Joe

    Look in the Tools ... Customer Details ...
    Customer Approval Status - Authorization Pending
    Customer must be Authorized to shop
    0= Not required
    1= Must be Authorized to Browse
    2= May browse but no prices unless Authorized
    3= Customer May Browse and May see Prices but Must be Authorized to Buy

    I have tried that but the members are being automatically approved and I want to manually approve a new account because its wholesale only and I need to verify their accuracy and if they are real...how do I set that up?

    So you are saying that with Customer Details set to 3, that someone that creates an account is automatically approved? We're not talking about customers that have existing accounts while that setting is not equal to 3, but brand spanking new users, they are automatically approved? That doesn't sound right at all...

    You cleared your browser/cache after changing the setting and logging off? Tried a different browser/machine? Must be sure that the information is different enough from an existing account that have a new/different account being created rather than appended.

    Step 1
    Admin -> Configuration-> Customer Details ->

    Customer Shop Status - View Shop and Prices

    Select - 0 = Not required

    Customer Approval Status - Authorization Pending
    Select - 3 = Customer May Browse and May See Prices but Must be Authorized to Buy

    Now customers can see your site including prices but must sign up/log in to buy.

    Step 2
    Install Twitch Wholesale + Attributes

    This splits the cart into Guest, Retail, Wholesale.

    Sign up/log in remains the same, you can set approval status to any applicable option, the customer will default as a retail customer if they log in when Customer Approval Status is set to 0 = Not required.

    Step 3
    Admin-> Customers-> Select the New Customer

    Select 'Wholesale Customer ?' - And add a 1

    Now they are considered wholesale, see wholesale prices and the wholesale landing page.
