    Is it possible to show/hide products based on a user's group rather than by choosing specific category(s)/or specific product(s) on the Product Configuration pop-up of the forms editor?

    Thanks!

    No there is no such functionality yet. Also this is not clear how this should work for visitors(if there is no user yet and there is no group)

    I could see guests or users in no user group simply would not see products that required a specific group membership.

    For products that you'd want to make available to guests or users in no group(s) the same kind of protection could be implemented as is done with protecting product availability with the two options:
    "To order this product user must have an"

    and

    "Disallow ordering of this product if user has"

    Or the same way there are Access permissions on the "Protect Content" pages, files, folders, links area

    Just a thought. Great looking product and we are looking to go live with it shortly.

    OH... And thanks for the FAST response times!

    I was just wondering if this was possible? or if it was planned for an upgrade.
    Im new to amemberpro, and was interested in allowing specific groups of people to buy different subscriptions...
    Is this possible?
    Im surprised it isn't a more commonly requested feature.

    Hello,

    I am afraid it is not possible to do by default but
    we can implement plugin that will add such feature if necessary.
