Hi,

1) This code snippet, added to functions.php can help you control where users are sent after registration, if they need manual approval.

add_filter( 'woocommerce_registration_redirect', 'custom_redirection_after_registration', 1000, 1 );
function custom_redirection_after_registration( $redirection_url ){
    // check if user requires approval
    $user_id = get_current_user_id();
    $user_approval = get_user_meta($user_id, 'b2bking_account_approved', true);
    if ($user_approval === 'no'){
        // change the redirection Url
        $redirection_url = 'https://yourcustomlink.com'; 
        return $redirection_url; 
    }
}

In the snippet above, change yourcustomlink.com to your desired page.

2) B2BKing will generally not override WooCommerce rules. Depends on what you're doing exactly.

If you want to totally override WooCommerce tax rules you would do something like this : 1) First create a tax exemption for some users, this completely removes WooCommerce tax, 2) Add a custom fee/tax with b2bking

The tax exemption should be safe, we are actually using a woocommerce function set_is_vat_exempt so you shouldn't see compatibility issues.

Are you using the "pay tax in cart" option? If so, it's best to check the calculation in the cart, just to be sure it's correct.

Best,

Stefan

Hi,

Regarding that plugin, version, it will be the latest publicly available version in the next update.

So the modifications will be part of the plugin from now on, starting with the 2.3.0 version

By remove the vat, You mean it doesn't apply the vat exemption, the company must still pay the vat, right?

This is a tough one. The plugin needs to apply the vat exemption but since the registration happens at the same time as the order, it doesn't have time to apply it.

I will find a solution. Will release an update next week with some improvements and this will be amongst them. 

I will update you about this.

Understood. I am getting back to you later this week with an update with a solution.

Hi, 

I have an updated version that introduces this function:

1) You will need to enable this setting:

2) Your Tax Exemption rule will need to include "Guest Users". Like this:

3)

This adds a validate button to checkout:

I would recommend you keep old versions installed until you are sure the new version works correctly for your needs. If it does, feel free to delete old versions.

There's currently no auto-update possible. Updates must be downloaded as they are released from Envato. We will notify users via email about major updates.

The payment will not be blocked by the plugin.

I think you can do the following:

- In B2BKing->Groups->Logged Out Users, disable payment methods that allow instant payment. You could allow only Invoice Payment for example. That way, the user cannot pay directly if he's not logged in.

Hi Yan,

In our plugin, you would indeed have to create a B2B group for these users (there are no B2C groups).

It's fine if they're actually B2C buyers, this is mostly just a way of organizing users into groups.

It shouldn't create any tax or other issues. The only difference would be that it would give these users access to B2B features such as the bulk order form, purchase lists, quote requests etc. That's the main difference between B2C and B2B in our plugin.

Kind regards,

Stefan

With B2BKing, you can have 2 user groups, such as: 

- "Student Group"

- "Expired Student Group" that does not have access to discounts

However, there is no feature to move users between groups automatically after 2 years. It can probably be done with a code snippet that checks registration time vs current time, and move the user from one group to the other. To move the user between groups, this line of code can be used:

b2bking()->update_user_group($user_id, $group_id);

You would need to work with a developer to write the above code to do that. We do not do custom code ourselves, but you can get a quote from a dedicated customizations company such as https://codeable.io .

Hi again,

(1) I checked but this seems to work normally for me. For example:

- I do not see a state if Afghanistan is selected:

- I do see a state if Germany is selected:

Have you already solved it?

(2) Normally this stays on the same page and shows a message letting the user know their account requires manual approval.

Almost certainly there is another plugin that is redirecting to the home page after registration.

Please try deactivating all other plugins + switching to the default storefront theme, to help you identify what plugin / code is causing this redirect.

Kind regards,

Stefan

Hi again,

This is normal per WooCommerce's functionality. 

Our plugin does not directly control this - we simply use WooCommerce's country+state input feature. This uses WooCommerce's database of countries and states. 

For some countries it has a list of states (and shows a dropdown), for others it doesn't have the list (and shows a text input), and for some it considers a state is not required.

If you would prefer it, you can go to B2BKing -> Registration Fields -> Country and change it to "country / region" to show only the country, and not show state:

You could hide that field with CSS during checkout, for logged out / b2c users.

To do that, you can add the following CSS:

.b2bking_logged_out #billing_company_field, .b2bking_b2c_user #billing_company_field {
    display: none !important;
}

Hi Yan,

That CSS should have also worked for logged in B2C users (not just logged out), I am not quite sure why it didn't.

Is it possible to share a temporary backend login to the site? I could check this directly. 

And just to confirm, you're looking at the checkout page, right? The site URL is https://qualistery.com/ ?

Kind regards,

Stefan

Thank you,

I've added the CSS to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS.

I believe it is working, as I see the field is being hidden:

Let me know if you see any issue,
