Role Membership Access for WooCommerce lets you restrict WooCommerce product visibility, purchasing, add-to-cart, cart, and checkout access based on WordPress user roles.<\/p>\n\n
You can:\n* Restrict access using Category Allowed Roles<\/strong> (Products \u2192 Categories).\n* Restrict access using Product Allowed Roles<\/strong> with Access Mode<\/strong> (Products \u2192 Edit Product).\n* Prevent unauthorized users from:\n - Viewing restricted products in the shop\/catalog (theme dependent, hardened via filters)\n - Adding restricted products to cart\n - Purchasing restricted products\n - Completing checkout if restricted products are in cart<\/p>\n\n The plugin provides:\n* A WooCommerce Settings tab: WooCommerce \u2192 Settings \u2192 WooRole Access\n* Per-category role restrictions\n* Per-product role restrictions with Access Mode (Inherit \/ Manual \/ Combine)\n* Multi-category conflict strategy options (Union \/ Intersection \/ Priority Category)\n* Optional redirect for unauthorized users\n* A reliable inline notice shown above product title (supports block themes)<\/p>\n\n Go to:\nWooCommerce \u2192 Settings \u2192 WooRole Access<\/p>\n\n Available settings:\n1. Restriction Message\n - The message displayed when a user is blocked.\n2. Redirect Unauthorized Users\n - If enabled, blocked users will be redirected to the URL below.\n3. Redirect URL\n - Recommended: My Account page or a custom \u201cJoin Membership\u201d page.\n4. Multi-Category Strategy\n - Determines behavior when a product belongs to multiple restricted categories:\n - Union (OR): allowed roles from any restricted category (recommended default)\n - Intersection (AND): user must match all restricted categories\n - Priority Category: use only the product\u2019s \u201cPrimary Category\u201d\n5. Default Primary Category (for Priority Strategy)\n - Used as a default selection for products when Priority Strategy is enabled.<\/p>\n\n Go to:\nProducts \u2192 Categories \u2192 Add\/Edit Category<\/p>\n\n Set:\nAllowed Roles (multi-select)<\/p>\n\n Behavior:\n* If a category has Allowed Roles set, products in that category are restricted depending on their Product Access Mode.<\/p>\n\n Go to:\nProducts \u2192 Edit Product \u2192 Product data \u2192 General<\/p>\n\n Fields:\n1. Access Mode\n - Inherit from Categories (default)\n - Manual Override\n - Combine (Manual + Categories)\n2. Allowed Roles (Manual)\n - Used only for Manual Override or Combine\n3. Primary Category (for Priority Strategy)\n - Used only when global Multi-Category Strategy = Priority Category<\/p>\n\n The product uses category Allowed Roles only.\n* If no categories have restrictions, product is unrestricted.<\/p>\n\n The product ignores category restrictions and uses Allowed Roles (Manual) only.<\/p>\n\n The product is accessible if the user matches either:\n* Product manual roles OR\n* Category roles<\/p>\n\n When a product belongs to multiple categories with different Allowed Roles:<\/p>\n\n 1) Union (OR)\n- Allowed roles are combined from all restricted categories.\n- Prevents accidental lockouts. Recommended for most stores.<\/p>\n\n 2) Intersection (AND)\n- Allowed roles are the overlap of restricted category roles.\n- Can lock products if categories disagree (use carefully).<\/p>\n\n 3) Priority Category\n- Only one category drives access.\n- Select a Primary Category in product settings.\n- Optionally set a Default Primary Category globally to reduce per-product setup.<\/p>\n\n If a user is not authorized:\n* Product may be hidden from catalog (theme dependent)\n* User cannot add to cart\n* User cannot proceed with checkout if restricted items are in the cart\n* Notice is injected above the product title (block-theme friendly)\n* Optional redirect can be enabled<\/p>\n\n All products in that category will be restricted based on their Access Mode:\n- Inherit: category restriction applies\n- Manual: product manual roles apply instead\n- Combine: both apply<\/p>\n\n Result: only users with editor role can view\/purchase.<\/p>\n\n Role Membership Access for WooCommerce does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data.<\/p>\n\n This plugin operates entirely within the WordPress and WooCommerce environment and uses existing user roles and product\/category settings to control access.<\/p>\n\n No data is sent to external servers.\nNo tracking, analytics, or cookies are added by this plugin.\nNo personal or sensitive user information is stored outside of WordPress.<\/p>\n\n If you choose to use optional external links (such as PayPal or Buy Me a Coffee), you will be redirected to third-party services that operate under their own privacy policies.<\/p>\n\n For questions or concerns, please visit:\nhttps:\/\/www.jrtwebsolutions.com<\/p>\n\n\n Check:\n1. Product Access Mode\n - If it is Inherit, manual roles won\u2019t apply unless Combine\/Manual.\n2. Multi-Category Strategy\n - With Union, another category may allow the user role.\n3. Cache\n - Clear page cache\/object cache.\n4. Variable products\n - The plugin normalizes variation IDs to parent product, so it should work. Ensure you saved roles on parent product\/category.<\/p><\/dd>\n Some block themes don\u2019t render WooCommerce notices in classic locations.\nThis plugin renders its own inline notice above the product title and includes JS fallback.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Guests are treated as role \"guest\".\nIf a product is restricted to roles like subscriber\/editor, guests are blocked.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes, administrators are always allowed by default.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nSetup \/ Configuration<\/h3>\n\n

I set roles but users can still access. Why?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
I can\u2019t see the message\/notices on product page.<\/h3><\/dt>\n
Does it support guests (not logged in)?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
Can administrators bypass restrictions?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
