Hello

In hikamarket, I need that sellers can not see certain categories when publishing their products from the frontend of the site, for that I went to the category edit page and modify your Access level, prove in different ways but can not get that category is hidden for sellers in the frontend of the site.
You can me explain how I do?

Thank you very much !

Hi,

You have settings in HikaMarket in order to restrict the vendor into a specific category.
And you also have a setting to add "extra categories" where the vendor will be able to put his products.
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...nfig_market_category

So the settings are "inclusive" but there is no "exclusive" one.

Hello

Well I understand.
Then, I go back to consult you, what I need is that the site administrator can choose certain products which are published, for display in a separate module, as featured products.
Investigating, not found nothing in the content modules that allows me to do this, all you could solve it would be to have a category "outstanding product" that could only be visible by the site administrator, so that is the administrator, the only that he can assign that category to a product.
There is another possible solution for what I need?

Thank you very much !

Hi,

1 / Limit your vendors to the category "product category".
2 / Create a new category under "root" named "Features" (or other name in the same idea)
3 / Under that new category, create sub categories for your different features, like "Featured Products", "New products" etc.

Because your vendors are blocked in "product category" they won't be able to access to the categories under "Features".
Because it's not under "product category", it won't impact the HikaShop product listing.
Because you're an admin, you can use these categories for your modules configurations.
