Maximum Product per Visitor

Hi @magistralfit,

Sorry for the late reply.

There are two parts in your question:

1. Yes, user must be registered for our plugin to limit purchases for him. There is also “Block guests” options in “WooCommerce > Settings > Maximum Products per User > General” – you can block guests from buying products in your shop, and output custom message to them, e.g. “You need to register to buy products”.

2. Limiting it by SKU – this is possible with our Pro version (since v3.2.3) via “Formula” section. You’d need to set Formula to something like this:

[alg_wc_mppu limit="10" product_sku="sku1,sku2,sku3"]

i.e. it will limit the maximum quantity to 10 for products with sku1, sku2 or sku3.

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi there,
for the second point within the pro version in this case the user still need to be registered ?

our main goal is to Limit purchase by SKU either a visitor or a subscriber.
As most of our potential buyer would be visitors at first time adding to cart then passing to our payment page where they can make their account, but we don’t want to block them as visitor to purchase or force them to be subscribers first.

Any Update please ?

Hi, How can i limit a User (customer) from buying more than a certain amount. Lets say there is a buyer who makes purchases for $ 1000 at first login, again he visits and buys items worth 500$. I want to set total limit at 2000$ (more than this any user cant buy, beacause 2000$ is max limit per user).
Third time when user visits & tries to purchase worth 600$, i dont want to exceed his purchases more than 2000$ (website checks, he already purchased 1500$ items in past & 600$ more means total 2100$, website refuses this purchase) . is there a way?

Hi @magistralfit,

Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately, yes, user still has to be registered. As we need to track user sales, I still haven’t figured out how we could track them for the guests. One solution would be to track it by user IP, but it’s not implemented in plugin yet.

Hi @cybertoothindia,

If I understood the question correctly – what you need is to set “Mode” option (in “WooCommerce > Settings > Maximum Products per User > General”) to “Product prices” (instead of the default “Product quantities”) – this way you can limit it by total sum instead of quantity. We’ve recently had a similar question on our website, please check the answer, hopefully it will help.

Hi,

We just wanted to let you know that we’ve finally added (in plugin v3.4.0) the option to track and limit guest (i.e. non-logged) user sales. There is new “Identify guests by IP address” option in “WooCommerce > Settings > Maximum Products per User > General > Guests”.

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
