MultiSite Module Support Thread

Looks like it is working at the www. address.

The DNS and file matching is very important.

The main site should have it's template set from within the admin. All sideboxes are off by default on a new template. You need to load the template and go into sideboxes and setup the ones you want. Or press the defailt button on the bottom.

init_templates.php file gets replaced where code

$template_dir = "";
$sql = "select template_dir
from " . TABLE_TEMPLATE_SELECT . "
where template_language = 0";
$template_query = $db->Execute($sql);
$template_dir = $template_query->fields['template_dir'];

$sql = "select template_dir
from " . TABLE_TEMPLATE_SELECT . "
where template_language = '" . $_SESSION['languages_id'] . "'";
$template_query = $db->Execute($sql);
if ($template_query->RecordCount() > 0) {
$template_dir = $template_query->fields['template_dir'];
}

gets commented out. So which file will be responsible to load a template?

So as I am trying to bring the main site up I have this issue:

main site asdf.com
second shop asdf.asdf.com

for now I just need to bring main site up - asdf.com
I did not modify any files but added new files to admin area and to includes. I also created a config file - www.asdf.com_config.php which has the following:

<?php
$template_dir = "cold_steel";
define('SITE_NAME','asdf');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.asdf.com');
?>

So what happens now is that when I go to my site http://asdf.com or http://www.asdf.com it loads (on URL change) the site with products and so forth but it does not select right template. It looks like it picked up default one. Side boxes are missing as well.

I spent some time already but can't figure out why it's not picking up cold_steel template. Folder under templates is called 'cold_steel'.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Sorry but I don't get your point.

Looks like file www.asdf.com_config.php does not have any effect.
Oh by the way when I try to set a template in admin for my main site it simply does not change it.

I want to make one thing clear. I did not modify any files I just simply added new files and executed a db query as suggested on dev site.

Is this a modded site or a stock 1.3.8 install? Did you do any edits or simply copy the files from the mod?

[TheGuest]

It is a modified site but i mainly modified template - css, etc. so I did not modify any core files.

Yes, I simply copied the files from the mod.

Thanks.

Got this part finally working. I did not modify configure.php - that was the problem

This module makes navigation to my site - via http://mysitename.com not working because of this code

if(file_exists("includes/config_sites/$config_file")) {
include("includes/config_sites/$config_file");
} else {
echo "the domain $default_server_name does not exist.";
exit;
}

in sites_switch.php method

so only http://www.mysitename.com works

how do you solve this problem?
