Fits my needs exactly
I run an affiliate shopping site, which is a site with links to products on other sites. Periodically a merchant will pull out of an affiliate program which creates a lot of steps for me to remove them from my site. I don't always have time to immediately do that. Using WooCommerce Protected Categories allows me to instantly choose "Private" on the Category page and the entire Category for that Merchant will be hidden. It's a lifesaver. The customer service of the Support team is fantastic. Fast, friendly and professional.
The Solution That We Needed, Backed By Unbeatable Support!
We purchased the Protected Categories plugin for use in our B2B ordering portal, powered by WooCommerce. In our use case, each category will be assigned to a different role, and each role is assigned to a different client of ours. The end result is dozens of categories featuring similar product, but each category is specific to the client type (or role). Protected Categories was easy to install, and it was intuitive from the get-go. In a place where no other plugin provided this solution, Barn2.co.uk is the savior that we all need! Their documentation was incredible, and the plugin has worked as intended out of the box. Thank you so much!
Great Plugin
Great plugin for hiding / restricting product categories to specific user classifications. Integrated well with WooCommerce Product Category management forms in WordPress Admin screens.
Fantastic Plugin and Excellent Customer Support!
The plugin works perfectly and the customer support is outstanding!
Protect your categories without worry!
Protected Categories is an excellent plugin! I needed a quick and flexible solution to create differing levels of access to certain product categories. I tried a number of different plugins, paid and free, each of them "almost" worked. Protected Categories was the only one that worked instantly, was easy to configure, and did exactly what it was supposed to do. Thanks for a great plugin!
Professional product, excellent value
Just works out of the box with no fluffing about and does exactly what it says it would do. Saves much time and adds a lot of value to our site. Very easy to install and get working so no support needed but I imagine the support too would have been great had the need been there.
A top quality plugin with top quality support
We use Barn2's WooCommerce Protected Categories plugin to sell custom products to an expanding list of over 120 clients. The plugin has performed flawlessly on our site for the past 18 months. I couldn't be happier with the product and the service Barn2 provided on the two occasions I've had questions was outstanding. These guys are doing it right.
Top Notch Support
Purchased the protected categories plugin and had some issues with getting it to work. Was my fault but their support was able to get the issue resolved right away. 10/10 will buy from them again.
Excellent Plugin and Customer Service
I chose the plugin because I’m replicating an old proprietary site’s functionality while moving my client to Woocommerce and this plugin offers exactly the features required before going full-blown subscription site. Also, the demo on the site using other WordPress plugins and noting them on the page was especially helpful as I wanted a smooth login vs the clunky default WordPress default. The price is reasonable and does not require a subscription. The finishing touch was when I reached out to inquire about one of the features that was needed (expiry option for users) and Katie not only suggested a plugin but included the link for me to review. Simply stellar customer service!
Works like a charm!
Wanted to hide WC categories -which to my dismay is not offered as a standard option within Woocommerce- and stumbled upon this plugin. Although it is a pricy plugin, it does exactly what is promises. Installation and setup was done in just a few minutes! Great Work!
