MultiSite Module Support Thread

Email?

How can I set this up to send through different email accounts and have the email reflect the proper store name. When I send out emails they always have the name of the main site in the from box even though I set up the separate config files with the different setting in each.

Help would be appreciated!
Thanks

Hello.

I am intrested in this module, but, before I install it I want to ask you this question:

I have 2 domains, one domain .com and one .fr. and I want to use one data base for both domains.
- Wen the visitor goes to site.fr the site will load french language, french html pages (like shipping, terms of use etc) and all products with french description.
- Wen the visitor goes to site.com the site will load english language, english html pages (like shipping, terms of use etc) and all products with english description.

Is it possible to use this module for this purpose?

Thank You.

Hi Everyone,

I posted a question here a while ago (about page 72 or 73). I am running multi-site with eight domains at the moment and all is well. The question was however 'can i stop products from all sites appearing in new products, special products listings etc.'

I would like to be able to filter the new products,special products etc modules so that they only display products relevant to each site and not from any other sites.

The answer i received was to integrate the cat_filter code into each of the new products, special products etc modules code. After several attempts at this i have had no joy. My php knowledge is limited so please any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I`v just installed this module and I want to thank to all developpers for this great and very helpful module.

I had only just one small problem. wen I type www.site.com the site loads ok, but wen I type only site.com in browser, the site displays : "the domain does not exist".
I solved this problem by adding for each site in inludes/config_sites folder another file site.com_config.php with this code: <? include ('www.site.com_config.php'); ?>.

So, in my config_sites folder, I have now for each site 2 files:
1. www.site.com_config.php (with all the configuration necessary for this domain to work)
2. site.com_config.php with the code above (so wen I type site.com in browser the site can work now and do not display "the domain does not exist".

My question is: is this a good solution for solving this problem or there is a more efficien/sophisticated solution to solve this problem?

Thank you again.

That's the way it works, you did the right thing. They can share the template too.

you should use an .htaccess file to direct all traffic to one or the other versions of your domain to eliminate duplicate content which hurts your SEO

put the .htaccess file at the root of your site

  RewriteEngine on

  # If your site can be accessed both with and without the 'www.' prefix, you
  # can use one of the following settings to redirect users to your preferred
  # URL, either WITH or WITHOUT the 'www.' prefix. Choose ONLY one option:
  #
# To redirect all users to access the site WITHOUT the 'www.' prefix,
# (http://www.example.com/... will be redirected to http://example.com/...)
# uncomment and adapt the following:
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.site\.com$ [NC]
 RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://site.com/$1 [L,R=301]
