However, if you really need it, you can trick the system by having option products ( [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...ct-form.html#options](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/integrated-documentation/19-hikashop-product-form.html#options) ) attached to your product, have each option product assigned to a group, and then hide the option area on the product page, the checkout, the invoice, the emails so that the options don't display. If you know PHP a minimum, it's feasible, otherwise, I would recommend against it or have it done by a professional developer.

Even for existing users if they buy product X can I put them in group Y or access level Z? Cheers, Mat")* I'm also needing assistance with the "User group after purchase" feature. We are selling a membership in HikaShop and need to have customers added to the 'member' group after purchase. They are successfully added to the member group, but they are also added to the Public group and are not removed from the Registered group. So, before the purchase they are in the Registered group, but after purchase they are in the Public, Registered and Member groups. I need them to only be in the Member group after purchase. I'm not sure why the Public group is being added. The multiple groups assignment is causing permissions issues for Members. --- 3by400, Inc.

You should use a specific plugin (duplicate the "group after purchase" one and modify it) to create your specific workflow.

I do not have 'Public' selected in the "group after purchase" option and the users are not in the 'Public' group before the purchase either. --- 3by400, Inc.

It means that when the user registers, it is added to both the pbulic and the registered user group.

The user is not added to the Public group at the time of registration. --- 3by400, Inc.
