Prestafan1234 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) Solution: Upgrade/use a shop version that runs 1.5.6.x and follow the steps below in post #7 Hi, I am working on a shop for a customer, who wants to use the Multistore feature to set up two shops. Shop 1 is B2C displaying prices incl. of VAT Shop 2 is B2B which should not display prices until the customer is logged in. I have made a new customer group for the B2B customers. This is set to display prices excl. of VAT and the showing for prices for the default groups (Visitor, Guest, Customer) is disabled. One would think that this simple setup would do the trick, but it doesn't :-( The problem is that when changing the default groups not to display prices for the B2B group, this updates globally for the B2C site as well so this shows no prices either! According to this thread: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/187765-set-up-multistore-for-b2b-and-b2c/ and this bug: http://forge.prestashop.com/browse/PSCFV-4273 the problem should have been solved in the latest version (which at the time was 1.5.4.1). The shop was version 1.5.3., so I have upgraded it to version 1.5.5.0. The changelog for this version includes a lot of fixes regarding the Multistore feature, however it seems that this rather basic feature is still unresolved? Has anyone managed to get a setup as the above to work correctly? If so, I must be missing something in my setup. If not I'm guessing this should be reported as a new bug.

Prestafan1234 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 No one with inputs on this? I would particularly like feedback from some of the developers, as this is supposed to be solved in the latest version - or anyone who needs the same setup of course :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prestafan1234 Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 I don't like bumping or begging for answers in the forum - but seriously, I cannot believe no one has this problem but me (and my customer)?? Where are the developers, who claimed this is solved in 1.5.5.0 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FantasyCraft Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hi there, same problem here. I have two shops, A and B. I have also 4 groups: visitor, guest, customersA (for shopA) and customersB (for shopB) Shop A: everyone can see prices (visitor, guest and customersA and customersB) Shop B: only customersB can see prices So: Customer -> groups I choose "ShopB" in the multistore. When I set show prices "off" for visitors, they can't see prices in shop A and B, even if I set this parameter only for ShopB. @Prestafan1234, did you solved you problem?

Prestafan1234 Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hi, No I haven't solved it yet. All I got back from opening a bug was a rude answer that it is not a support forum! Then I read that it should be solved in version 1.5.6. (so they must have realized at some point that it indeed was a bug). But since I have just installed two new shops running 1.5.6. and found other bugs, I am not willing to risk upgrading my customers shop to this version at the moment.

kpham501 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I had the same problem. Here's what I had to do. I had to create new customer groups. Original groups: guest, visitor, and customer stays the same B2B groupsL WS_vistor, Wholesale. WS_visitor cannot see prices but can browse store. Wholesale is registered customer. Then I went to Backoffice and went to customer/customer groups. Made sure that my multistore selected was my b2b store. At the bottom there are checkboxes for default group options. check the boxes for customer and visitor and change the drop down box to wholesale and WS_visitor respectively. Then I changed the multistore view to Default (shop group name) and changed permissions on Guest to deny access to my B2b store. THEN i had to go to back to my categories and make sure my categories and subcategories were allowed on my b2b store. Goto catalog/categories click "edit" category then scroll down the screen until you see group access. make sure the your new customer groups are checked. You have to do both the parent and the sub categories or entire parts of your catalog won't show up on the b2b site. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpham501 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Awesome you're welcome. I've found so many people on this forum ready to help that I feel that I should lend my very little experience where I can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prestafan1234 Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Great you both got it to work. I am not upgrading my customer's shop - like I wrote there are other bugs in the new version, which need to be fixed first. But great to hear that there is a way around it after all.
