Show categories with customergroup prducts

We have on our side created many categories, products and customer groups.

After some testing back and forth, it ended up that we will only use one shop for all, therefore, should we organize products to be displayed to the right groups.

It is also successful, but when I look at the shop, I can see categories where there are items in. They is not displayed to the customer. - Quite rightly, because customer group will not be able to buy the product.

I have also chosen to categories only be displayed if there are items in. But the above category are displayed, even if there are no items for this customer group.

So now comes the question, can the shop manage it so that the customer can only see the categories if there is a product that is associated with this customer group?

By default HikaShop don't do that, you can hide a category if no products inside but not no product for a customer group.

But you can do it in the view "category / listing_img_title" (or another one depending on which one you are using) and add a check in the file "components/com_hikashop/views/category/view.html.php" function "listing()".

Check if there is products for the current customer in the category, and if there are no products add a parameter and hide the category in the view if the parameter is true.

It require a good PHP level.

thanks for the reply

I have not so much hardcore sense in php that I can program it .. Can easily read php ..

We must just accept that, it's not all you can get, but it could be a future idea for you
