restricting store/catalog/product access

sgrossman
Trying this again in a new post.


Is there step by step instructions somewhere on  setting up restricting login/party to a store or catalog?

I would like to have products (if it has to be a whole catalog that is ok) that are only visible to a specific party group.

Specifically:
Do I have  a catalog that is associated to the store that has all products that everyone can see, and then
have a catalog that is for the special party group but not associated to the store?  If so how would the logins in that party group switch to the other catalog?

Thanks!
Sarah

Sorry to respond with a lack of timeliness...

As I mentioned in a previous message this is only support on the Store level, and not on the Catalog, Category, or Product levels.

The basic idea is if you set the Require Customer Role flag on the Store then a user will only be able to login to the ecommerce site (specifically for that store) if they are associated with the Store in the "Customer" role.

So, just set that flag on the store, then in the "Role(s)" tab for the store add the people (Parties) you want to have access in the Customer role.
