prevent product approved removal

-- HikaMarket version -- : 1.6.7

Hello,
how can we enable a vendor to delete his products when they are not approved but prevent him to delete them once they are approved?

Hi,

As you have notice, there is no such option in HikaMarket.
But it is possible to create a small custom plugin in order to authorize or not the deletion of an HikaShop product.
So the plugin could check the product and see if it is an approved product or not (and also see who is deleting it).

Thanks to that, you can let the "deletion" right to your vendors and the plugin will do the rest !

Hi,
That is what I was expecting, unfortunately . Could you please give me some directions on how the plugin should be built?

Hi,

Well, you have the HikaShop trigger "onBeforeProductDelete"
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/6...nBeforeProductDelete

Thanks to that trigger your plugin can be call before a product is being deleted.
Then you can check if you're in the backend on in the front-end.
And if you're in the front-end you can check which vendor is connected.
Afterwards, you can perform a little query to load the data about the products which are being deleted and authorize the data in input regarding if the products are approved or not.
