    Hi,
    We will be making a small shop, but we sell retail/B2C and part of our products also wholesale/B2B.

    I was wondering if it is possible to have role-based prices?
    Meaning:
    I want all items to show up with retail prices for B2C, and then for the B2B, if they are logged in show only the wholesale category and with the wholesale prices.

    I understand I must be able to just show a category.
    And I think I can then then double up the products and give one the category of wholesale and the other the category of retail. But… I would prefer not to have to double up the products, would prefer to have the product once, with prices varying between ‘normal’ visitors and logged in wholesale buyers.

    Hope you understand what I mean and hope this is an option.

    And some additional questions:
    1) does Fluent cart work with Polylang?
    2) would you advice keeping the shop on a seperate install on a subdomain from our portfolio site so to not bloat the database? Or use them in the same install since a lot of the used images in the shop can also be found in the portfolio?

    Any thoughts on this are appreciated!!
    Thanks!

    Hi @omniafausta, thanks for explaining the setup you’re planning.

    At the moment, FluentCart doesn’t support role-based or B2B/wholesale pricing where the same product shows different prices based on the logged-in user role.

    For B2B tax handling, FluentCart does support EU VAT reverse charge. Businesses can get reverse tax handling based on their VAT ID where applicable.

    Regarding Polylang, FluentCart doesn’t currently have full Polylang integration. Only string translation is possible at this time. So, you can translate the strings using any translator plugin and the translated strings will be shown based on the site language.

    For the separate install/subdomain question, it depends on how you want to manage the shop. If you move the shop to a subdomain with a separate WordPress install, the products, orders, customers, and FluentCart settings will all be managed on that subdomain. The main portfolio site won’t have a direct connection with that FluentCart store unless you build a separate connection.

    So if you want everything managed in one place and shared media/content is important, keeping it on the same install may be simpler. If you prefer to keep the shop completely separate from the portfolio site, then a subdomain can also work.

    Thank you
