MultiSite Module Support Thread

Glad you got it working

For the sideboxes, it is the same as normal, when you use a template for the first time you will need to reset the sideboxes for that template.

I just figured that out a bit and am still playing around with the settings. It is in the layout boxes. But the product categories does not appear in the left side bar while it does on the top. I wonder why?


Second thing I noticed is that Super Orders, Edit Orders, and Ty Package tracker does not work after install.
So was Who's online as well. Are these normal or do they have to configured in the *.php config files for each individual site?

Again any help is greatly appreciated.

I am using Super Orders, Edit Orders, and Ty Package tracker tp on some sites, and have no problem with their functioning. Just be very careful with merging if necessary.

do you mean merging Multisite files with SO, EO, and TY after the before mentioned are installed? Or Merging the files for the three when installing them?
NOTE: I am using EO 4.1.1 RC1 because I volunteered to test install and use it for lhungl. It may have something to do with that. I just send a PM to lhungl and have to see what he say about this.


I have not done any merging at all so far with all 19 MODS installs I have done so far.

I know how to use Winmerge. But have no clue on how merging goes and therefore avoid merge required Mods at all cost.

WIth winmerge, do you just click merge after compairing the two files in question?

Winmerge will show you the differences, but you will still need to make the decision yourselves if the code that is not the same needs to be edited.
Some of us here who make and edit the mods make it a good habit of marking the code blocks clearly that are different form the stock code. But never just blindly copy the differences.
Sometimes more than one mod need to change the same block of code, and that can make quite changeling. But without that where would the fun be

You are so right on that. That makes learning more fun in a way especially when you are able to solve the problem.

When You Say: "Some of us here who make and edit the mods make it a good habit of marking the code blocks clearly that are different form the stock code."

Question: When I find the blocks of codes that are different, do I just add / or replace the new / different block of code anywhere in the code file as long as they are between two different blocks of code?

Or do I have to make changes to what is inside a specific block of code? I have always been really confused at this.

question 2: How can I tell the different blocks of code apart? Are they marked with special "markers" signafying a beginning and and end of a block of code?

not sure if this is related to the multi site module but now on Google Webmaster Tools, it is showing backlinks from some of my sites to the main site - even though there are no links i can find..

one example is:

it is saying that there are 109 links to http://www.swordsofhonor.com/#######...d-dagger-frogs from various pages in http://www.netswords.com.. one page is http://www.netswords.com/2sworwalsamd.html - another is http://www.netswords.com/###########...d-dagger-frogs

and i can't find a single link on those 2 pages to swordsofhonor.com

swordsofhonor is the main site and netswords is an add-on site.

This could be links from blogs posts anywhere you may have added your link to.
and if it is places that you added your links to and it related to your prodect this is a good thin.
if it is links not related then trace back the link.. and see what the site is and maybe you could find your link on htat page.

Merging "orders.php" from Super Orders with "orders.php" from MultiSite Module. You need to do this by hand.
