Distinct Sections

[Aliss]

Hello everyone,
Sorry it this question isn’t related to this forum discussion. If so, please tell me how to proceed. I am graphic designer, have a basic knowledge of html, php and css. I am helping some friends to create a website using Prestashop. The idea is to make a product catalogue which could be seen only to registered users. I mean, if you are not logged in, you cannot see this catalogue. I thought to make a welcome screen, showing About us, Contact us,… but to make the Registration and Login section, I want to make this section works independently, showing filtering options at registration, and then redirect users to the shop.
I think Prestashop has an option that makes it possible, but I couldn’t find information about that. I just read about multi-store option, but isn't exactly what I want.
I will be grateful for any help you can provide.
Thanks

I am sorry, what exactly do you want to make?

 

Go to categories, click edit on any category, scroll to the bottom of the page.

Here you will find Group access 

Check off visitors and all products in that category will not be visible to people that are not registered.

Is that what you want to do?

Hi!

thank you for your answer

You give me a solution that will be useful to me, I will try to explain myself better. I want to have two menus, the first menu for the homepage(without the catalog) and the second menu for the catalog. The first menu has a registration/login section for customers/dealers. If the register user wants to login or a new user wants to register on the site, the homepage has to redirects to a different section without a menu (please check the images displayed below). When registered users want to login, they can see the catalog menu. Is it possible in Prestashop? how can I do it?

Tank you!
