    Default share the same database with 2 zen cart shops

    Here's the scenario. I have a Product A that i can sell both by online shop and phisical store. Is it possible to install two zen cart sessions in the same server and different folder to share the same database?

    Yes, that can be done, but to what end? There are a couple of free mods available that you could combine to enter orders from your physical store into Zen Cart, if that's what you're after.

    Default Re: share the same database with 2 zen cart shops

    that's because i have to write invoices with unique progressive numbers between in-store and web-store.
    today customer 1 buy something on the web and so zencart send invoice n.1 , in the same day my first customer buy something in my phisical store and this isn't invoice n.1 but n.2 because n.1 was already created on the web for virtual shop!

    what are those free mods?

    Do you want them to share the information in the database or have 2 separate installations?
    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.
