WooCommerce Login Method Conflict | WordPress.org

Hi,
It is imperative that I be able to limit which products in WooCommerce are visible to groups of users.

If you use the native UM functionality on the product page, it does not block them from seeing the Shop or Category listings – only the exact product page. Further, the WooCommerce extension offered by UM does not address this functionality.

To resolve the issue, I purchased and installed the WooCommerce extension called “Catalog Visibility”. Unfortunately, it turns out that Catalog Visibility requires that the wp_login and wp_logout actions be fired in order to clear the product category cache properly and determine which products a user should see when they log in. UM’s custom login pages do not fire these actions like they should and will break plugins which rely on them.

Is there a way to either:
– fix UM WooCommerce integration so that it truly limits product visibility by user role?
– fix UM login to fire the necessary part of the wp API’s to clear the cache like normal wp does?

Thanks for your help.

If you could please point me to an action that UM does trigger, I can also update my functions file with the following:

***

add_action(‘wp_logout’, ‘custom_logon_on_off’);
add_action(‘wp_login’, ‘custom_logon_on_off’);

function custom_logon_on_off() {
global $wc_catalog_restrictions;

$wc_catalog_restrictions->clear_transients();
}

***

Thanks

Do you want to hook in UM login process?

Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response. Yes, I think that would work. Do you have a link that shows the actions associated with that process?

Thanks again…

Yes here are the actions:
```
// Hook that runs after successful login and before user is redirected
do_action('um_on_login_before_redirect', um_user('ID') );
```
Will that do the job?
