    help question Multiple Installs of Zen

    Okay, advise desperately needed!

    I have installed zen with no problems BUT here is my dilemma:

    I have two very different product sets that really don't mix and match and the categories should not be listed together. The specials, banners and side boxes would not match well either since the audience for the two product lines are very different.

    So essentially I need different main pages and setups for each of the two product sets. Can I actually create two separate installs of Zen in order to accomplish this?

    One install would be http://www.mydomain.com/product1 and the other would be http://www.mydomain.com/product2

    Does this make sense to do or is there another way?

    Thanks.

    Yes, as long as you use 2 databases and sub-directories, everything will be totally separate.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Good point! But since mysql DB is only one based on my domain then how would I get another DB setup. Or is Zen smart enough to create multiple tables in the same DB but linked to different stores?
