Thanks, glad you are beginning to get good use out of WC Vendors. 🙂

So you’re saying when:

1.) Vendor logs in
2.) Vendor goes to yourdomain.com/vendor_dashboard/
3.) Vendor clicks “View Your Store” and it takes them to the homepage instead of yourdomain.com/vendors/vendor-store-name/?

Access manger plugins……. They are the black sheep for web admins. They tend to do more damage than they do good. WC Vendors properly sets the role for Vendor and Pending Vendor, and our settings panel handles all the capabilities. I would start there for sorting out what’s messed up. You can see the capabilities the Vendor role should have here:

https://github.com/wcvendors/wcvendors/blob/master/classes/class-install.php (Line #66)

As for the Shop Manager role, we don’t modify it at all, so you can do whatever you like with that one. 🙂

Once you modify roles, with any plugin, even if you deactivate that plugin the changes still persist, so you’ll have to figure out what went wrong and go from there.

This is a tough one to make an educated guess on, I’ve never seen this problem before.

1.) Try the default twentyfifteen or Storefront theme. Does it work? If yes, it’s a theme issue. If no, go to step 2:

2.) Disable all plugins except WooCommerce & WC Vendors. Does it work? If yes, re-enable plugins one by one and test the page each time. When it stops working, the plugin you just re-activated is causing some sort of conflict somewhere.

Let me know!

Same issue, any solution found?

Ben,
I’ve just been made aware of this from one of the vendors. I’ve not been able to run through all the trouble shooting steps, I will. However, it seems to only be effecting one of my five vendors. My dummy vendor profile is not suffering any unexpected behavior.
This is a new site, one of the goals is to be very easy to maintain, so very few plugins are installed. I did make the mistake of trying someone else’s plugin for multi-vendor support. Unfortunately I cannot remember which users were active before trying your wonderful product. (They actually recommended I run your plugin to get their’s to function correctly.) Anyway, as it is only the single vendor (I think) would that point towards plugin conflicts?

I did notice that the vendor in question has the following permissions
Capabilities
edit_product, read_product, delete_product, edit_products, edit_others_products, delete_products, delete_published_products, delete_others_products, edit_published_products, assign_product_terms, upload_files, manage_bookings

My test vendor has the same list (but cannot view other products, is working as expected)
Capabilities
edit_product, read_product, delete_product, edit_products, edit_others_products, delete_products, delete_published_products, delete_others_products, edit_published_products, assign_product_terms, upload_files, manage_bookings

Will do.
Thanks again!

So I took a little bit of an out of the way path to get it fixed (fixed is a stretch)
I created a new user as a place holder, deleted the one that was having issue and attributed the products to the new place holder. Then I recreated the users account and deleted the place holder, attributing the products to the user.
The created user’s account were started as contributors. After creation I switched them to vendors.

Anyway, problem solved, if not fixed.
