When you want to use different modules for each site, and they are using files that can't be overridden, you may want to add a switch for each site in that particular file.

The SSL should be a multi-domain certificate when using more than one ssl on the same account. A wild-card is for one domain with multiple sub-domains.

Remember that this module only allows you to set the category's per site, not the products. If you need to also set products per site please contact me, I have a (commercial) solution for that.
Got it.. For what I'm attempting to do, I don't need to set products per site, but good to know that there is an option for that.. (you know my details.. shoot me an email with that info.. )

What I need to do is pretty straight forward (I think/hope ).. I'm migrating his current store from VirtueMart to Zen Cart on one domain and migrating the other domain from Joomla to WordPress/ZenCart (where Zen Cart and WordPress will be run as an integration site)

Both Zen Cart sites will be identical in every way (look/feel/product offerings/etc) except the domain to reach them.. What I mostly want is for my client to only have ONE back-end to manage these two twin Zen Cart sites..

and before ANYONE asks why.. here's WHY..


  • My client is not yet comfortable letting go of the domain associated with the existing VirtueMart store (it's a branding thing-it's HIS business.. so my job is to find a SOLUTION to his BUSINESS problem)
  • The migration plan for the VirtueMart to Zen Cart migration already includes a number of 301 redirects so that ALL the VirtueMart categories, products, and other links will properly re-direct to their Zen Cart equivalents.


So in the name of making my client fully comfortable with the transition, and while we transition his clients over to using the new store domain, we want to maintain BOTH storefronts. I just don't want my client to have to maintain TWO store back-ends.. I am hoping that this module will provide the foundation I need to make this possible.. (sounds like it might)
