Default Making products available for Retailer and Wholesaler

Hello!

I was curious if someone might point me in the right direction. I have products that are available for Retailers and Wholesalers, but a few of them I only want showing up for Retailers. I understand that I can assign this in the admin, but if you assign a product to be available for Retailers only, they must login to see it!

Is there a way that I can assign a product as a Retail item and have it show up on the site even if you're not logged in? These retail only products are showing up when logged in as a wholesaler.... they show the retail price and everything.

If I could assign them as a retail products, and still have it show up on the site, they would then not show up when a wholesaler is logged in.

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!!

Jeff

I think I understand your problem.

I don't believe that X-cart has functionality built in to distinguish between wholesale and retail product types at this time.

I'm sure that something could be written in, perhaps using one of the param fields.

You could also create wholesale categories and set them as viewable to wholesale membership only. The existing products could use the wholesale categories as secondary categories that way any product not showing up in a wholesale category would not be viewable on login. I believe that this is how the membership functionality works.

Out of curiousity, why would you not want your wholesalers to see all of your product line? If they want to purchase it at your retail price, would you stop them?

Good Luck!
