4. Set Rule Name and Type
On the first field, you can set the name for a new rule. Here, we have put Replace Price. You can set the name according to your choice but it is helpful to recall the name to edit the rule later easily.
Rule Type: In this field, you can select the audience to whom you want to apply the rules.
- Quote Rule for Guest Users: The rule will be applied to guest or non-registered users. Choose this option if you want to replace price with text for guest users.
- Quote Rule for Registered Users: You can use this option to apply the rule for registered users. After choosing this option, you will be able to select the user roles. For example, administrator, editor, author, contributor, subscriber, customer, shop manager, and wholesale customer. The rule will be applied to only selected user roles.
Rule Type: This field takes an argument as a number. The number value ranges from high priority 1 to low priority 10. When you have multiple rules on the same product, a rule having a high priority value will be applied to the product.
5. Select Products
Now, you need to select the products on which you want to apply the rule.
Apply on All Products: You can check this option if you want to apply the rule on all products.
Quote Rule for Selected Products: In this field, you can select individual or multiple products to apply the rule.
