Too complex user system for woocommerce?

    Hi everyone,

    First off I’m running the latest wordpress version 5.0.3 with the latest woocommerce version 3.5.4 on the Betheme.

    So I’m trying to do something what in my eyes seemed simple enough but apparently it’s not. On this webshop the clients are only allowed to see prices and order a product if they are logged in. And you will only receive a password after the admin approves your account.

    For admin approval I used the “Eonet Manual User Approve” plug in.
    To hide the prices/add to cart button I used this plugin “Login to See Add to Cart and Prices in WooCommerce”.
    For a registration form I used the “user registration” plugin.

    So I think with these 3 plugins I should be able to get the result that I want. But the issue I have that is when I’m not logged in and go to a product page for example /nl/product/aqua-peas-relaxing-oogmasker/
    There’s a button ‘log in om te bestellen’ that says log in to order. With the plugin I can choose a page to which it needs to redirect. I have a registration page (made with the user registration plugin) /nl/registration
    But I don’t have a login page. The plugin that hides the price and shopping cart can only link to existing pages.

    Ideally I would just like to use the wordpress login and register form.

    So you would go to a product page /nl/product/aqua-peas-relaxing-oogmasker/
    There you have the button that says ‘log in om te bestellen'(log in to order), and if you click on that you get redirected to /nl/wp-login.php where then you also have the option to click the register an account button if you don’t have one.

    Anyone with an idea on how to fix this?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    You might first consider how this might affect your potential clients and future sales. Prices are just too important to the buying process.

    And then you should ask at the WooCommerce support forums for help with this if you still wish to proceed. Needing a login before ordering seems sensible enough but putting up any barriers to the ‘purchase decision’ may be counterproductive.

    Just my opinion on this.

    The WooCommerce support people can help you with the rest.

    Thanks for the reply. It’s a B2B webshop so it’s normal you don’t see prices without a login. I’ll ask at the woocommerce support forum then.
