Thanks!")* Hi, The best solution will probably be to do it by using **Access levels**, and restrict the access to your product regarding your user group. Note that ACL are available through the **business version** of Hikashop. Also Using the [ User Group FTW For Hikashop plugin](http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension-specific/hikashop-extensions/21847) will probably help you.

I am more inclined towards maybe using the IP address to determine their location and then present them with a set of suitable products. We sell audiobooks so we want to make sure we display books in the correct language. I am still a bit in the dark as to what I need to do to make this work. ![:-/](/irritated.gif ":-/") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzg2NTE4MS1oaWthc2hvcC1pbi1tdWx0aXBsZS1yZWdpb25zP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86323 - Thank you received: 14283 - - 12 years 9 months ago [\#140724](#140724) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Hikashop in multiple regions](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/865181-hikashop-in-multiple-regions#140724 "This is a general question about a specific case.

Thanks!")* Then, why not use the language of the browser of the user instead of the IP location (which might not be accurate) ? Doing that should be quite easy to setup. You first create a custom product (commercial editions of HikaShop) field (with the column name "product_lang") so that you can select a language for each product (with the language code for each one like fr-FR de-DE, etc) and then you install and publish the hide products per language plugin: *This attachment is hidden for guests.
