Article type visibility

While creating an article type, a Visibility drop-down menu lets you pick between :

  • visible : this is the default choice, and it will render this article type visible in any context ;
  • visible on demand : article type will be visible in the Articles environment, but, at Make Order Page, one will have to click on the type name to display its categories ;
  • hidden : article type will be visible in the Articles environment, but will not appear at all at the page accessed via the Make Order Page ; this choice is the one to pick in order to prevent articles belonging to this type from being ordered at all.

On the Merchant Configuration Page, if 'Hide article types' is chosen, all articles types will have the 'hidden' behavior, whatever their individual visibilities are.
