MultiSite Module Support Thread

[staft]

My host says no go for securing a parked domain name. The only way it will work is if you use the folders, subdomain or Paypal/Google Checkout.

If you plan to use the multisite mod with multiple sites (www.domain1.com, www.domain2.com) with their own domain names, you cannot get the SSL cert to work and accept credit cards.

Hello,

I found that if I have two sites:
1.com
2.com
and an order was placed on 1.com and the same user loggs in to the account from 2.com he/she can see order that was placed from 1.com. Is this designed to be this way or my installation was wrong?

Thanks,

It's absolutely normal.

As i said before, you shouldn't use multisite module in a way that your customers are not aware that they have registered or purchased something from you before. You should let them know their details are shared between your sites and that they can use it as an advantage. IMHO, if you don't let your customers know that, you're scamming them...

Slowly but surely progressing....http://www.dmrmarketinggroup.com, http://www.pearlzplus.com, and http://www.birddropinns.com up. Before I start populating products into the latter 2 sites, I need to figure out why http://www.birddropinns.com loads a product (ignore its irrelevance, please) and cart while http://www.pearlzplus.com does not. They both use the same template (sage), though one is in .../template/sage and the other in .../template/PPsage.

According to my sleuthing, the HTML of http://www.pearlzplus.com shows me that a java script and a tpl_product_info_display.php aren't being loaded. I'm unable to figure out what should be loading those files. I'm not sure what is making them load/generate the HTML in http://www.birddropinns.com.

Has anyone got an idea? Anyone? Buehler? Balhir? I really appreciate your previous suggestions, they were extremely helpful. Also, glogo's mention of the developer's toolkit: now I finally get it! What a value!

I mean balihr. How dense can a person be(um, I'm opening myself waaaaaaay up there!)? So sorry! I think that means define in another language, but I'm not sure which one?

Anyone know what .php loads the initial templates and shopping cart, as in the html of http://www.birddropinns.com? Thank you for your kind assistance.

I'm starting to get used to this... I don't understand what means define in another language? My nick? If you were referring to my nick, i don't know if it has any meaning somewhere. It's my domain (if you add a dot before hr). Nevermind...

First of all, I have to ask you a question. What are you selling at dmrmar... site? What's the purpose of installing ZC there? As i see it, you have just two shops, right? If I were you, i'd install ZC inside pearls folder and have birddr as a second multisite. Seems to me you've "over-complicated" things here.

Second, you might wanna try going over your multisite installation. I bet you've missed something, but can't tell what, sorry...

Hi,

I have say that Im new here, and so, of course I did not read this entire topic, as some information can be outdated.

But I did really made a lot of research on google on this site and in the search in here, but I am still not able to solve my problems.

I installed, and it's working almost as I want now, except for two things:

1. New Products shows products from all categories
2. SSL

About SSL, I have my store at a domain, and a secondary store on a subdomain. I want same address for checkout, not only because of SSL, but also to cross carts.

Is there solution? Anyone have a clue how on where to edit on the source code to manage this?

Thank you very much.

Question: how do I control layout of front page of a store. On my second store I can add products but they are not seen right on the front page but only category is visible. Is this controlled in Layout Settings?

Here is what I have:

define('SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MISSING_NEW_PRODUCTS','1'); //Show New Products on Main Page - Errors and Missing Products Page
define('SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MISSING_FEATURED_PRODUCTS','2'); //Show Featured Products on Main Page - Errors and Missing Products Page
define('SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MISSING_SPECIALS_PRODUCTS','3'); //Show Special Products on Main Page - Errors and Missing Products Page
define('SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MISSING_UPCOMING','4'); //Show Upcoming Products on Main Page - Errors and Missing Products Page

but nothing shows up on the front page. What's wrong?

Thanks,

Is there a way to display some information on the front page but not product. Let's say I want to have a page "About Us" as a front page of my store. How do I do this? I am not talking about success message but the whole page.

Thanks,
