Does this Module work in version 1.5.3 at all?

Does this Module work in version 1.5.3 at all?

I assume it does. I have not yet tried it, but from my memory i do not see any issues. There may be some core files that which need to be edited that look different.

I am running ZC v1.5.3 - installed a couple of modules, fixed my main template set, then installed Multi Site V1.0

The main site is showing the publisher's books only www.zumayapublishing.com - the stores are separate as the publisher wants to sell ebooks directly, as well as have a storefront for arcs for reviewers and a place for authors to purchase their discounted hard copies.

My shops don't run off root but from a folder called store. I created the config files for the 3 shops after creating sub domains for the three store fronts: store.zumayapublishing.com, arc.zumayapublishing.com, and authors.zumayapublishing.com

When I type the url for any of the three, I can see it sees the config file because I don't get an error, but the page itself is blank. (It does give me the ZC favicon on the tab so it is definitely redirecting.) I know just enough code to get in trouble, so this might be something super simple that I just don't get. (Total n00b here) I've tried going through this thread and have done a multitude of of searches, but could not find anything that seemed to fit my issue?

Figured actually posting on the thread was my next best step rather than spending more hours trying to figure this out.
Thank you in advance!

When you receive a blank (or partially blank) page, there's a myDEBUG log file waiting in your /logs folder to tell you what the issue is/was. Perhaps if you post the contents of one (using the code-tag # found in the menu bar when you're writing your post), someone could help you figure out what's up.

The log was exactly what I needed! Seems something happened to my counter.php file. Once I replaced it, the store came up. THANK YOU!

Greetings all, I'm back.

After fixing my last problem, I ran into another. Have been trying for hours in the last several weeks to figure it out, but I'm stumped. I'm pretty sure it will be simple, but I don't seem to be asking the right question the right way when I tried to find the answers before.

I am running ZC v1.5.3 - installed a couple of modules, fixed my main template set, then installed Multi Site V1.0
I've segregated the categories for each store.

My ZenCart install doesn't run off root but from a folder called /store. I created the config files for the 3 shops after creating sub domains for the three store fronts: store.zumayapublishing.com, arc.zumayapublishing.com, and authors.zumayapublishing.com

I've copied all the files I could find into the three templates folders under english and templates, one for each store; miko, miko-arc, miko-author

All three index pages show up at each of the subdomains and look like they should. However...

When I click on a category or on an item, or even the contact page, it throws me back to the www.zumayapublshing.com/store and I also loose everything in the categories for that store. (I only have one item in the database, though I do have several categories. Didn't want to do a lot of the database adds until I at least got the store fronts working.)

I've been seeing a lot on using .htaccess to reroute things to the subdomains but I'm too afraid to use it because the solutions don't look right especially since all the info is housed for the three stores in the same folder. I copied all the pages into the template folders (I think/I hope). And I played around with adding stuff in the config files for each of the templates. But everything I've tried either messed things up or just didn't work. I checked the error logs that showed me the problem spot the last time, but there are no errors there.

The subdomains have A records already established in cpanel.

Just looking for some direction on how to try to fix this. Like I said earlier, I am sure it is super easy, but I have no clue.

Thanks in advance for your help!!!! (If you need other info, please let me know!)

Could you post the contents of the configfiles for the sites? I suspect you forgot something.
By the way, authors.zumayapublishing.com and store.zumayapublishing.com can not be found at this moment

<?php
$template_dir = "miko";
define('Zumaya_Publishing_eBook_Store','miko');
?>

I did try to add lines for the directory define and the server define, but they either seemed to do nothing or messed things up.

All the subdomains were working last night. I'll go double check what has changed,.. Wheeee!

Also set these defines, for each shop.

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://store.zumayapublishing.com');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');

I've tried that. Even with the double lines to include the https. Went ahead and did it again for store so people can see what it does. The other two I left as is, so you can see how they default right now as well. Thanks for trying!
