Release categories only for defined customer groups or rules
Product information "Release categories only for defined customer groups or rules"
Highlights
Grant access to categories only for defined customer groups Grant access to categories only for defined rulesÂ
Features
Category visibility depends on the active customer group or rule • 404 error page when accessing non-authorized categories • Exclusion of non-visible categories from the sitemap • Visibility settings assignable on category or customer group detail pages • Plugin configuration can be limited to specific sales channels • Optional restriction of product display in listings based on category visibility • Optional restriction of product search based on category visibility • Configurable behavior when no rule or customer group is definedÂ
Purpose
The plugin enables targeted control of category visibility in the storefront
based on defined customer groups or dynamic rules. This allows for a
personalized storefront structure.
Possible Use Cases / Application Scenarios
A B2B shop may want to make certain categories accessible only to wholesalers,
while end customers should not see them. Or a shop with special offers for VIP
customers hides specific categories only for them. It can also be used to
create separate assortments for different countries or languages.
Usage
Visibility can be configured directly in the admin area on the detail pages of
categories or customer groups. The assigned rules or groups determine whether a
category is displayed in the storefront. Unauthorized categories automatically
trigger a 404 page.
Configuration Sections
Categories: Selection of assigned customer groups and rules for
visibility control
Customer Groups: Definition of which categories are visible for each

Top-Plugin und Top-Support!
Nach unserem Support-Ticket wurde innerhalb weniger Tage Kompatiblität zum Plugin "Suche Pro" (ebenfalls von ACRIS) hergestellt und Nicht-Öffentliche-Kategorien tauchen nun nicht mehr in der Suche auf. Auf ACRIS ist verlass, Immer wieder gerne!

Funktioniert perfekt und einfach zu bedienen
Ich bin begeistert von den Plugins von Acris, mit sehr guten und schnellen und freundlichen Support und guter Kompatiblität.
Bei diesem Plugin ist zudem zu beachten, dass es weitere Plugins von Acris gibt, die mit diesem "zusammenarbeiten". Wer Produkte für bestimmte Kundengruppen möchte, will oft auch Kategorien nur für bestimmte Kundengruppen oder spezielle Preise für einzelne Kunden.
Es ist alles über die API anpassbar und auch über die Admin-Oberfläche.
Update: Eine Anfrage zu den Breadcrumbs wurde umgehend beantwortet und schnell umgesetzt. Top-Service und Support von Acris.
