If a product is exclusive: – Only selected users (and administrators) can see it.– Unauthorized visitors cannot see the product in shop, category, tags, search or AJAX live search. – Direct access to the product URL redirects to the shop page.– Fully compatible with modern search engines (including FiboSearch). Perfect for: – B2B stores – VIP customer access – Private product offers – Client- specific catalogs – Wholesale deals ### 🔒 Key Features * Restrict product visibility to **specific users only** * Admins are always allowed (cannot be restricted) * Product completely hidden from: - Shop - Category pages - Product tags - Search results - AJAX / live search - REST API product queries * Lightweight & fast (no bloat) * No role management required * Simple multiselect user selector (WooCommerce-style) ### 🧩 Compatibility This plugin is built with **standard WooCommerce filters**, making it compatible with most themes. **Tested and working with:** – Botiga / Botiga Pro (AJAX search compatible) – Storefront– Astra (front-end compatibility may vary) – FiboSearch (fully supported) If you use a theme or plugin with custom product queries, it should still work normally as long as they respect WordPress or WooCommerce APIs. ### 🎯 No Roles. No Conditions. No Complexity. This plugin focuses on **one thing only**: Restrict WooCommerce products to selected users. No roles, no categories, no conditions — clean, simple, reliable. ## Screenshots [⌊Product metabox: Select exclusive users⌉⌊Product metabox: Select exclusive users⌉[ Product metabox: Select exclusive users [⌊Hidden product behavior (not visible to guests or unauthorized users)⌉⌊Hidden product behavior (not visible to guests or unauthorized users)⌉[ Hidden product behavior (not visible to guests or unauthorized users) ## Installation 1.
