    Default A little confused about customer levels

    It seems like my customer level doesn't see SALE PRICE, i can only setup a sale price for my customer level by using EXTENDED PRICE. How come?

    From the manual:

    NOTE: Customer levels ignore sale prices. Any customer belonging to a non-0 customer level will not see sale prices, even if they have no other discounts/extended pricing set up.
    That's by design, customer levels should be the 'special' people getting different rates that most. If you need them to see sale prices it would be a pretty small mod, but you would need the source code.

    That does make sense. But then how would wholesale websites verify customers? We're a wholesale company and we don't want any old person to register and see pricing, so in order to "verify" the customer we have to move them to a "verified" customer level. Is there any other way to setup the cart to require verification for customers?

    We had the same problem and we set it so that only those with a customer level of a certain number or higher can see products. We modified the master page to hide content unless they were logged in with a certain customer level.

    Don't forget to set your store to be a wholesale store in the AppConfig settings too.
