WooCommerce Protected Categories WordPress Plugin

What is WooCommerce Protected Categories?

WooCommerce Protected Categories allows you to create private areas tailored for individual clients, wholesale buyers, or members-only access. Implement fine-grained protection by locking entire WooCommerce categories.

Restrict access based on specific users and user roles, or set up a secret password to ensure products remain completely hidden from unauthorized viewers. This feature offers a secure and customizable way to manage and control access to your product catalog, enhancing privacy and exclusivity for your clients.

Features & Functionality

Simple Password Protection: Users enter a password on a central login form and are redirected to the corresponding hidden category. Multiple passwords can be set for each category.
Role & User-Based Restrictions: Limit access to WooCommerce categories based on user roles or specific users. Logged-in users will automatically see their designated protected categories.
Comprehensive Protection: When you secure a WooCommerce category, all its products and subcategories automatically inherit the same protection, safeguarding entire sections of your store.
Hide from Public Store: Control whether to display or conceal password-protected categories and their products. Hidden content remains invisible in the public parts of your store.
Hidden from Menus & Sidebars: Optionally hide protected categories from menus and widgets. Once a category is unlocked, menu links and widgets reappear seamlessly.
