Disable [ADD TO CART] button for unregistered visitors

[paoltaia]

Hi all,
I was wondering if someone could help me with this:

I'd like to disable the ADD TO CART button to all unregistered visitors so that they have first to register and log in before actually adding any product to the cart.

Is this possibile?

Thanks in advance!

Paolo

Yes it's possible.

In the TPL files, you have to use the statement

{if $logged}
....
{/if}

The tpl code between these 2 lines will be displayed only if customer is logged.

Which tpl files...all of them? Or just specific one/s? And where in the file should this code be placed?

All of the ones with "Add to cart" buttons. It is product.tpl, product-list.tpl and module templates too depending on which ones you have installed.

Thanks for the info. I had found the correct files and placed the code in the right spots, but after refreshing the page, the entire center and right columns would disappear. I subsequently found that I also needed to add a line of code to the product.php file, then everything reappeared and the add cart button had the behavior I was looking for.

Any chance to know how you had solved? Which code is the right code?
