Come one anyone, can someone please have a look at this for me.

When a customer is logged in the:
$_SESSION['customer_id']

is > 0 ... :smile:

So you could use:

if (isset($_SESSION['customer_id']) and $_SESSION['customer_id'] != '') {
// do something
} else {
// do something else
}

Thanks for the reply Linda, but i'm sorry you've totally lost me... Where do i put this code and also what about the actual link. 
Many thanks:blush:

Hi, I still have nt been able to do this. I really could do with some help with this. I have searched these forums but cannot for the life of me find a solution.

Thanks:wacko:

You could use the blank sidebox mod and put the link to the price list in there, along with the PHP that includes the code Ajeh provided to only show that sidebox after login.

That said, unless there's something whiz-bang special about your site or product line, I think making potential customers log in (create an account) before they can view prices is a big mistake.

Hi Steve

Thanks for your reply. The site is an wholesale site for retailers not the general public. The customers have to be recognised has existing or registered customer and have an account with the company before they get an online account. All purchashes that are made are invoived via that account, no payment is taken online. Basicly if the general public knew the prices that was paid at wholesale they would never purchase in store, lol.

The site sells adult dvd's, the link is here, I would like to put the link under the information down the right hand side.
What i'm trying to do is completely new to me. As i said i don't even know where to put this php, if you could advise me accordingly i would be very grateful.

I see what you mean. I'm not sure how the Price List mod works, but, since all of your authorized customers are pre-appoved, why not let the mod do what it does, and set Admin - Configuration - Customer Details - Customer Shop Status - View Shop and Prices to 1 ?

You can strip the new customer create account stuff from the login page template file, so all your customers see is the log in part.
