I have a few questions about the E-Commerce Pro platform.

1) Is it possible to make some of the products to be seen by logged in customers only?

2) Is it possible to completely hide price and shopping functions and just have a catalog view of the products? My client wants to disable the shopping cart function temporarily just for a short period of time. I was trying to create a new set of layout with a customized product page design with no price and buttons to shopping cart etc, but I realized that I can't seem to customize the search result page which has shopping functions already built in.

Thanks in advance.

Both are possible. 1 requires use of NS Script on the product layout pages. 2 requires use of an option in Operations and Settings.

Thank you Goomba and it's good to know that both are possible.
Would you be kind enough to tell me what to do more specifically as I'm very new to this system?

Thanks in advance.

1.) You'll have to edit the product layout to include the NS Script User.IsLoggedIn. Basically, you'd use the NS Script IF statement to say, "If the user is not logged in, don't display any of the product information."

2.) There's an option in Operations > Settings > Products called Product list purchasing. Turn it off and use CSS to hide the Prices on the list view. That will allow you to have a "catalog" where purchasing isn't possible.

Thanks for your input.
Regarding #1, I was able to add the ns script to hide the product info for non-logged-in users.
Now, can I do the same for the search result page? basically I want to hide the price information from the search result page for non-loggded-in users.

Thanks in advance.

Try adding this to the top of the search page in the Pages tab:



That will hide the price if they are not logged in.

I tried to add the code to the top of the search page but once I hit the SAVE button it seems that the HTML editor automatically changes the code to
<ns:if condition="!User.IsLoggedIn"></ns:if>
The style tag was omitted.
Any advise to get around this?
