How to Hide Add to Cart Button for Specific User Roles in WooCommerce

If you operate an online store using WooCommerce on WordPress, you may want to control the visibility of the "Add to Cart" button based on different user roles. By doing so, you can provide tailored experiences for logged-in users, guests, or specific members with diverse access rights. In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to achieve this using a PHP snippet. Whether you're looking to replace the button with alternative options or hide it entirely, we've got you covered.

The Problem at Hand

A common requirement is to have different functionalities for users depending on their roles. For instance:

Logged in users: Typically, you want them to have access to the "Add to Cart" button.

Non-logged in users: You might want to provide options such as "Where to Buy" or "Ask for a Demo" instead.

Users with a specific role (like viewonly): These users might need access to certain resources but not the ability to purchase products, which means they shouldn't see the "Add to Cart" button at all.

The Challenge

The existing code snippet you've been using does not distinguish effectively between the roles for users who should or should not see the button, specifically the viewonly role. We need a comprehensive solution that aligns with this requirement.

The Solution: Custom PHP Snippet

Step-by-Step Breakdown

Understanding User Roles:
Ensure you know how user roles are assigned in your WooCommerce setup. You can inspect user roles in the WordPress admin panel.

Using Hooks to Modify Button Visibility:
We'll use WordPress hooks to remove the default "Add to Cart" button and replace it based on the user's authentication status and role.

Customizations and Styling

The final step is to ensure that your custom buttons are styled according to your site’s design. You can target the classes you assigned to the buttons (btn-where-to-buy, btn-ask-a-demo) in your CSS and add styles to match your brand.

Conclusion

Controlling button visibility based on user roles in WooCommerce can significantly enhance the shopping experience on your website. By implementing the above PHP snippets, you can successfully hide the "Add to Cart" button for specific roles and provide tailored alternatives. Remember to test your changes extensively to ensure everything works as expected.

Now you have the power to customize your WooCommerce store in a way that meets your business needs and enhances user interaction. Happy coding!
