WooCommerce Protected Categories is a specialized WordPress plugin designed to restrict access to specific product categories within an online store. It allows shop owners to secure wholesale areas, private client collections, or member-only products using passwords or user role restrictions. Instead of locking products individually, this tool secures the entire category, ensuring that only authorized customers can view and purchase the hidden items, making it ideal for B2B stores and private boutiques.

Description
WooCommerce Protected Categories provides a streamlined way to manage private areas in a WooCommerce store. The plugin offers three primary protection methods: password protection, user role restriction, and private categories for logged-in users. Once a category is protected, all products within that category, including its sub-categories, are automatically hidden from the public shop page and search results.
This tool is built for performance and security, allowing administrators to create multiple passwords for different customer groups or link specific categories to specific WordPress user roles. It features an easy-to-customize login form and works seamlessly with any WooCommerce theme. By centralizing access control at the category level, it simplifies the management of wholesale portals, member-only deals, and bespoke product catalogs without requiring complex membership plugins.
