Hi everyone, I have a question about the visibility logic plugin for controlling who sees content based on user role. I have a course page that I restricted to a 'premiumcourse' user role. I really want to understand when someone checks out from WooCommerce. Will the user role 'premiumcourse' be automatically applied so that they can access the course page? 

 

Similarly to the point page, will the defined user role assigned to the point page be assigned to the user automatically after payment. i want to understand thanks. 

 

Though for my course page, I asked ChatGPT to generate a code that will help assign user to the relevant user role that have access to the resources they paid for. Then I added it using the code snippet to my site. I don't know if what I am doing is right.

@jk Yes thats what the visibilty logic is for, you simply create a role and you can allow only users with this role to access a page or even only specific sections of the page. @admin shows examples and how to apply it in the SAAS course if you still didn't check it, do so. The idea will become more clear.

I didn't understand why you added a code snippet, and what its role is. If its to give users access to a page, you don't need a code snippet it can be done directly in the page when you install and activate the plugin.

@jk Hi !

you can configure woocommerce to assign a specific role automatically, if you didn't no, it will not be assigned.

or you can use alternative pluing, paid memberships pro, it has also a free version. it will help you configure content visibility easily and assign membership levels.

@husein Thank you very much for responding to me. I did the course already maybe I'm missing something. of course, I understand how to assign and restrict a user role to content. what I am a bit confused is what happens after payment is made through woocommerce. will the user role be assigned automatically so that they can access the content? I think the admin cleared my question. I will try what he said and if I face an issue I will give an update. I will also recheck the course to see maybe I missed it. Thank you.

I couldn't see an option to do this on Woocommerce. This is the code I generated.

 

add_action('woocommerce_order_status_completed', 'assign_roles_based_on_product');

function assign_roles_based_on_product($order_id) {
// Get the order object
$order = wc_get_order($order_id);
$user_id = $order->get_user_id();

if ($user_id) {
$user = new WP_User($user_id);

// Loop through each item in the order
foreach ($order->get_items() as $item) {
$product_id = $item->get_product_id();

// Map product IDs to user roles
$product_roles = [
4119 => 'Premiumproject', // Replace 123 with your product ID and 'role_for_product_123' with the desired role
456 => 'role_for_product_456', // Replace 456 with your product ID
// Add more product-to-role mappings as needed
];

// Check if the product ID has a corresponding role
if (array_key_exists($product_id, $product_roles)) {
$role_to_add = $product_roles[$product_id];

// Add the role to the user if they don't already have it
if (!$user->has_role($role_to_add)) {
$user->add_role($role_to_add);
}
}
}
}
}

In line (// Add more product-to-role mappings as needed) I can define more woo-commerce product IDs and respective dynamic user roles to be assigned to them after payment. I can't figure out from the course how the user role will be assigned automatically after payment for either a premium tool or any other paid resources via WooCommerce.

@jk Hello, it's explained in this section of the course, where we use the automator plugin to automate giving points to the user when they buy a course; you can do the same for the courses/membership.

@jk Sorry, why are you doing this manually? 

Can you please explain your scenario in detail to help you more? 

Do you want to assign a role when someone buys a product? 

Each product has a different role. Or is it just one role?

if it is one role, you can set this in the woocomerce settings, no need for custom code snippets.

@admin Okay, I have a premium course page. Then I restricted this course page with the visibility logic to a user role I named "premium".  Everything was working fine. Where the issue comes is when someone pays for my course, I do notice that they are not assigned the 'premium' role automatically in order to access the course page automatically as the page is protected for that particular role.

So, they have to message me manually to add them to the user role which will help them access the page. This causes them to have a poor enrollment experience. 

So, my issue is not with restricting content to a page as that is working very fine. The issue is what happens when they pay for my product, as I want them to have the premium user role after payment to access the course automatically.

@jk As I mentioned above, you can use the uncanny automaton plugin so whenever a user buys the product from your site which is the membership they get their role assigned.

@husein

 

Okay, from the picture above, what action will I choose so that the user role gets assigned when they complete the order? If I choose mycred I will get 3 free options as in below:

Award a badge to the user
 
Award a number of points to the user
 
Award a rank to the user. 
 

I haven't really grasped this. Thanks.

@jk When you assigned roles on your website you didn't use mycred, if you went over the course it shows that you use the "User Role Editor" Plugin.So, when building the automation the, in the action choose WordPress and then type user and you'll get 3 options (add role, remover role, and change role), in your case you need to add a role so add the specific role needed.
