How to Configure the Private Store

WC Private Store will make your entire WooCommerce shop, page, and categories private by locking them. Only individuals or customers with the passcodes can unlock your private properties.

First, navigate to WooCommerce > Private Store > General, where you’ll find all the functionalities and options available. The General section contains all the primary features for setting up the plugin based on your preferences.

General

You can make your store private in three different ways.

Storewide Lock

You can enable this option to lock your entire store. It means nothing from your WooCommerce store will be visible to the users without access.

Individual Page

You can make any of your pages private if you do not enable the store-wide lock option. To lock individual pages, simply enable the Private Page option on the desired pages.

Product Categories

You can make any of your product categories private if you do not enable the store-wide lock option. If you want to lock individual product categories, just enable the Private category option on your desired categories.

Set Passwords

You can set a single or even multiple passwords for your store, depending on your preference. You can also set the validity date for your passwords.

Passwords are common for unlocking the entire store, page, and product category locks.

Redirect URL

You can set a redirection URL when your customers unlock the store/page/product category. You can leave it blank if you do not wish to set a different URL.

Unlock when logged in

You can also make your store unlocked for your customers who have previously logged in using the password.

When the password validity is over, the previously logged-in users need to unlock the store using new passwords.

Login Form

You personalize the login Page title, Message, Password label, Placeholder, and Login button text for your customers, where they will submit their password to unlock the store/page/product category.

That’s all.
