[Idea] Secondary Client Groups


Michael

Recommended Posts

Maybe a idea to have secondary client groups so a client can be part of two groups, however the primary client group over-rides the main settings for the group.

This allows you to set client downloads to a client group and then the client with that client group (primary or secondary) can download it.

Can be used for other things too :) just like a forum.

I'm not sure I understand how allowing a client to belong to multiple client groups would make it easier. Why not set the client downloads (from the download manager?) to both client groups instead?

Say you have Client group A, your main group, and then you have a download which isn't allowed to be accessed for that group. You have to either make a product and make them buy it, or put them into another group say group B. Now you have to make another client group or another package for another download or another set of customers say group C. 

Now you have to edit the main group of the client and edit the custom fields to re-save them (this will be fixed in a future version of Blesta though), to allow them access to one product.

 

Now if that client has two products, if they do it via groups you are stuck because you'd need to make a Group D for clients who can access both downloads, or make a new package they need to buy to allow them access to both them files.

 

If you can have secondary groups you can just add that to the client and they access the files in the download manager straight away, and if you use the shared login you could also link them up via the groups… if client group = Group A you can access this api or whatever :P

Suppose another idea is if you select two packages, to get a download, so you have to have both. At the moment if you have any selected packages you can download it you don't need to buy both if you get me mate?
