Hi,

Please make sure that the option is disabled in product edit settings and you are not hiding the product with other visibility modules. If that doesn’t solve your issue, please contact us directly via email support@booster.io.

Hi Steven,

This is interesting. Could you contact us directly via email support@booster.io? It would also help if you could send your settings as well.

Ok. Got it 🙂
Thanks for your time.
Have a nice day!

Hi again,

“On your second example/scenario, did you mean to say this (note words in brackets added by us)….”
That’s right. All products will still be visible and purchasable. Module starts hiding/showing products or making them purchasable/not purchasable only when at least 1 country has been set in per-product options.

“What if we were to enable “Hide visibility” option BUT set “Visibility method” to “Set VISIBLE”?? Is this a valid combination? If so, does it mean that All products will be INVISIBLE for all countries “except for those where you manually set countries in per-product settings”?”
It’s a valid combination. No, same as above, products will still be visible to all unless 1 country has been added.

Thank you for your patience.

Much clearer now. The spanner in the works is ‘Visibility Method’ which is only available in Booster Plus – we are still trying out the myriad Booster options before deciding to upgrade. So far so good. Kudos to the developers for coming up with this multi-function WC plugin.

Now that we know the correlation between the 3 Visibility Options and Visibility Method, it is starting to make sense 🙂

On your second example/scenario, did you mean to say this (note words in brackets added by us) :
—————————————-
Another example, “Hide visibility” is disabled, “Make non-purchasable” is enabled, “Visibility method” is set to “Set visible”. All products will still be visible [ and purchasable ] for all countries except for those products where you manually set countries in per-product settings.
—————————————-

Just so we know we are on the right track …
As for your first example :
—————————————-
That is, suppose you were to enable “Hide visibility” option, and set “Visibility method” to “Set invisible”. All products will be visible for all countries except for those where you manually set countries in per-product settings.
—————————————-
What if we were to enable “Hide visibility” option BUT set “Visibility method” to “Set VISIBLE”?? Is this a valid combination? If so, does it mean that All products will be INVISIBLE for all countries “except for those where you manually set countries in per-product settings”?

Getting there …

“OR do you mean the above additional 3 options are set ‘globally’ and does not apply per product and therefore no additional meta boxes appear on a Product’s edit page? So, if enabled, ALL products will not be visible site-wide UNLESS made ‘visible’ by selecting a Country on each and every Product’s edit page meta box?”

Not exactly.

These options are global, yes. But no matter what combination is selected you will see at most 2 input fields in per-product settings (if visibility method is set to “Set both” you will see 2 fields, if it’s set to either “set visible” or “set invisible” you will see 1 field). This field/fields are only for entering countries where product should be visible or invisible (or purchasable, not purchasable).

That is, suppose you were to enable “Hide visibility” option, and set “Visibility method” to “Set invisible”. All products will be visible for all countries except for those where you manually set countries in per-product settings.

Another example, “Hide visibility” is disabled, “Make non-purchasable” is enabled, “Visibility method” is set to “Set visible”. All products will still be visible for all countries except for those products where you manually set countries in per-product settings.

The answer to your question “what products” is always the ones you configure later in per-product options (or using bulk-edit options).

Yes, we have that on the Product’s edit page.
We are asking about the 3 ‘Visibility Options’ – should there be additional meta boxes showing up on the edit page? Are they supposed to?

Visibility Options:
1. Hide Visibility – will hide [selected] products in shop (category/archive) and search results. Please note that product still will be accessible via direct link.
2. Make Non-purchasable – will make [selected] products non-purchasable (i.e. product can’t be added to the cart).
3. Modify Query – will hide [selected] products completely (including direct link).

You said this:
———————————————-
Three options at the top allow changing another behavior. If you would like to show/hide products (WHAT PRODUCTS?) enable the first option. If you would like to make products (WHAT PRODUCTS?) non purchasable, enable the second option (at the same time if you disable the first option the customers will only be able to see the products but not purchase them, but if you leave both enabled, the second option will work as a backup check in case somehow customer added the product to the cart).

Finally, the 3rd (and 4th) options should be enabled in case the first one is not working as it should (sometimes, in some configurations this might happen).
———————————————-

OR do you mean the above additional 3 options are set ‘globally’ and does not apply per product and therefore no additional meta boxes appear on a Product’s edit page? So, if enabled, ALL products will not be visible site-wide UNLESS made ‘visible’ by selecting a Country on each and every Product’s edit page meta box?? That would be rather tedious.

Sorry, still confused.

Let’s try again:

1. Enable the Module
[meta box appears in Product’s edit page]

2. Set visibility on the Product’s edit page – select a Country/Countries
[product is now visible only in the selected country, say, Canada]

3. Go back to ‘Visibility Options’ and enable 1-3 of the additional Visibility Options
[WHAT ‘PRODUCTS’ DO THESE OPTIONS HIDE IF ENABLED?]

Still don’t know what’s the connection between the 3 Options in the main module settings and the ‘Visibility’ meta box in the Product’s edit page.

As far as we know, the Visibility meta box in the Product’s edit page works – when set to a Country, only that Country (IP) can see the Product.

But what about the 3 additional visibility options in the main module settings? WHAT PRODUCTS DO THEY HIDE IF ENABLED?

Apologies again for this seemingly convoluted post, we must have missed something.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Hi,

Once the module is enabled you should see “Booster: Product Visibility by Country” meta box in product edit page. It has a single field (with default settings) with a title “Visible”. Can you find this? If not, could you contact us via email support@booster.io? It would be easier to send screenshots.
