#Dragon Product Visibility

Per-customer and per-role product visibility for WooCommerce — hide products from everyone except the customers who should see them.

#Usage

Edit any product and open the Visibility Restrictions tab in the Product data panel: pick a Restriction Mode, then the customers and/or roles it applies to. Hidden products disappear from the shop, search, archives and direct URLs for everyone else.

Variable products are covered as a whole: a variation of a hidden product is hidden as well, including in the WooCommerce Store API's variation listings and single-variation lookups, and it cannot be added to the cart. A visitor who opens a hidden product's URL is sent to the shop page with a notice.

Searching for customers on the product screen shows account names and email addresses, so it requires the manage_woocommerce or list_users capability.

#Typical setups

• Wholesale items visible only to a "wholesale" role.
• Client-specific products visible only to that client's account.
• Members-only ranges for logged-in customers.

#Category & tag visibility rules

Instead of setting visibility one product at a time, you can restrict whole categories or tags by role. Open Products → Visibility Rules, pick a category or tag, then choose:

• Hide from the selected roles (blacklist) — everyone sees it except the roles you name.
• Show only to the selected roles (whitelist) — only the roles you name can see it, and it is also hidden from logged-out visitors.

A rule on a category automatically covers its sub-categories. A visibility rule set on an individual product (the per-product Visibility Restrictions tab) always takes precedence over a category or tag rule. Managing rules requires the manage_woocommerce capability.

#Data & privacy

Restriction mode and role rules are stored as product metadata; per-customer visibility lives in the plugin's own database table in your database. Uninstall keeps rules by default (wp option update dpv_delete_data_on_uninstall 1 to opt into deletion).
