    Default Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

    Hello all,
    Just want to be sure I'm looking at the right thing for my website with this module.
    I am currently using v.1.5.1
    my website is www.earthscauldron.com
    I have another domain name www.rootlady.com on the same server and want to create another site and move half my products to this other domain to keep products separate. Mainly, those buying soap for example, might not want to see folk magic and vice versa.
    So I'm looking to separate the shops, but want to be able to let the customers cross checkout when they want to. AND keep my customer list on both sites.

    So if they want to buy some folk magic stuff from rootlady.com but want some soap from earthscauldron.com they can still do both without having to checkout separately and/or create a new account on the new site. I would just have links on each site that will take them to the other site. I don't want to loose customer information or have to have them create a new account.

    I want two websites here www.earthscauldron.com (soaps, candles, incense, herbs, oils, henna) and www.rootlady.com (folk magic, services, etc.) the customers I currently have usually don't buy both, it's either one or the other and I don't want to scare off someone looking for handmade bodycare with a talisman (see what I'm saying)

    Is this the module I'm looking for?

    @EC web: This module I believe does exactly what you are looking for. It runs one admin section that has all your products in their respective category (ie bodycare) and you tell each category which website to display on. Since you only have one admin section through customers can log in on either site and all their info is there. I use it to separate my different product lines and it works brilliantly.
    Thanks, Colleen

    Default PCI Compliance

    I do have a question concerning PCI compliance. I am creating my new websites with version 1.5.4. I spoke with a designer about installing MultiSite on my new sites and she mentioned that she felt that it would cause some PCI compliance problems, or at the very least, some security issues. Can anyone offer some insight into this? It is extremely handy to only have one admin for my sites, but i would obviously prefer not to introduce security issues.

    She didn't get into specifics and since I wasn't paying her for her time yet, I didn't want to burden her. I just thought I'd see here first if anyone was aware of any issues that could be caused.

    Okay before I get excited here I need to make sure this module will do what I need done for this one client..

    He has two different domains. The first domain is his store (right now it's a VirtueMart store, but we are planning to convert it to Zen Cart) the second has always been a tutorial/support site for his brick & mortar tuning business and the parts sold on his e-commerce site.

    While I've NEARLY got him convinced to consolidate the two sites.. He has concerns about protecting his brands that won't be solved fully by using 301 re-directs from one domain to the other.. So it occurred to me that we could slow roll the transition for him by maintaining two store-fronts under both domains and having them both share the same database to make administration easy for him..

    Will this module allow me to do this?? Will I be able to install ANY module for these two stores.. do the stores have to have the SAME modules installed?? do the stores have to have the SAME templates installed?? What about SSL - I know he needs one SSL cert for each domain, but will this module support SSL for both stores?? What about sessions management - does this module handle this correctly.. Finally I don't see any updates to this since Zen Cart v1.5.1, but does this work with v1.5.4??

    Yes. The modules are installed only once. You will install Zen Cart only once.

    You can have same templates for the 2 stores or different ones; it's your choice.

    The SSL, no need to buy 2, just buy a wildcard SSL which is more expensive than the regular ones.

    Sessions are handled fine as far as I know. You can make customer think they are 2 different stores, but you can also let them know they can cross-shop between the 2 of them with only one checkout. Customer needs to notify customers/shoppers that they will get all info from <main site's name>, because name and branding of main store will come through notifications.

    I don't think why it shouldn't work with 1.5.4, but I could be wrong.

    I can show you 2 examples for your convenience if you want.

    I'll have to look at the current module and determine if there are v1.5.4 changes required.. So since Zen Cart is installed only once, both site will run the same modules.. Okay good information.. Thanks a bunch for weighing in..

    To my knowledge a wildcard SSL only works for ONE domain name and covers all variations of that domain (www.yourdomain.com, yourdomain.com, subdomain.yourdomain.com, etc).. I don't think he can use a wildcard SSL for two distinct domains (domain1.com & domain2.com). I'll check in with my own SSL provider to see how my own wildcard domain is setup, but I don't think I can use it across two distinct domains..
