Role manager

WCFM Marketplace plugin created a Shop manager, Store Vendor and Customer roles – which is great.

– NO, WCFM creates only “Store Vendor” role. Other two are from WooCommerce.

When editing “Users” the Store manager can see the drop down for “Roles” but the only option is “Customer” how can I give the store manager the option to select either Customer OR to be able to promote the customer to a Store Vendor?

– It’s not very clear to me. Kindly show me screenshots please.

to be able to promote the customer to a Store Vendor

– Customers are allowed to apply as “vendor”

Thanks for your response…

Here is the option that are available when you edit a customer logged in as a Store Manager: https://snipboard.io/ZSRwTE.jpg

How do I allow the store manager to promote customers to be store managers?

Thanks

How do I allow the store manager to promote customers to be store managers?

– What do you mean by “promote”?

A customer user may apply as “vendor” from WooCommerce My Account page. There they have “Become a Vendor” option.

Do I have to enable that somewhere as my account page does not show that?

I just want a Shop manger to be able to change a Customer to a Store Vendor – how can I allow this via the Dashboard?

Thanks

First tell me one thing, does your My Account page has “Registration” section and there has “Become a Vendor” link for non-logged in users like this – https://ibb.co/Lrdjv9n

No, I have a heavily customised site which is not using the standard pages…

I have used ninja forms to create two sign up pages.

One form/page for “Contributor” which when submitted creates the user as a Store Vendor the other form/page creates the user as a customer.

Customers are allowed to see the site content, Store Vendor’s are able to access a certain page where they can submit a product for approval.

Trouble is the Customers, after looking at the other products decide they want to add a product so need changing to a Store Vendor.

I can do this as Admin, but I want to allow the Store Manager to change the user role from Customer to Store Vendor so they can access the page and add a product.

Does that make sense?

Thanks

OK, understand.

Vendor registration page is a normal WP page. You may add this page url anywhere in your site.

What is the URL – do I have to create a “Vendor Registration” page with a shortcode?

I would really rather allow the shop manager to be able to change the role of the user from customer to Store Vendor – what permissions does the store manager need to be able to change this?

Nothing I have tried works – other than Admin, but then that gives them ALL options which is leaving the site open to mistakes and people being given the wrong role and too much control!

Thanks

What is the URL – do I have to create a “Vendor Registration” page with a shortcode?

– NO, this page automatically created during WCFM plugin installation.

Check at WCFM Admin Setting – Dashboard Pages – is “Registration” page set over there or not? https://ibb.co/XpXxPdh
