hiding menus based on plan was created by startup
Hello,

I'm using CB Subs GPL 4.0.0-rc.1 with CB 2.0.4 on Joomla 3.3.6.

I have two plans (standard and pro) which I'd like to use to show one of two different menu items to users having either one of these (mutually exclusive) plans.

I know in CB Subs -> Plans -> 'Standard plan' (name of the plan) -> Integrations -> Content -> By menu I can select a menu item to which I'd like to regulate the access based on this 'Standard Plan'.

When a user (without this 'Standard plan') clicks on the menu item from the front-end, s/he gets the message:

"Warning - Access to this menu item not allowed...".


What I'd like to do though, is for the menu item that is protected by this Standard plan to not even show to this user to begin with, unless he has that plan. Basically, the same behaviour as for modules when protecting these in CB Subs -> Plans -> 'Standard plan' (name of the plan) -> Extensions -> By Module.


The other way around, I'd like for users with a 'Professional Plan' to see the other menu item that users with Standard Plan can't see.

Right now, users of both plans see both items, but only one is accessible.

Is it possible with CB Subs to protect Menu items such that they don't even show to users not having the plan that is protecting them? If so how?

Thank you very much!

CBSubs can't hide menu items. Only protect their endpoint. It can hide modules however so you maybe able to use multiple menu modules to accomplish what you're wanting.
