MultiSite Module Support Thread

[britneycook]

Just as a follow up on my previous Post.. I found this post from back in 2008 with the same problem but couldn't find any solution to that one either.

Anyone got any ideas with reference to the:
INDEX LISTING
Show New Products on Main Page 3
Show Featured Products on Main Page 1

As a followup, NONE of the settings for INDEX LISTING work from the config sites. Anyone with ideas?

I think what my reasoning is that the 2, 3, 4, etc. site is template driven.. correct..
so what I was thinking if you could get the sidebox you want to be different from the other sites to be called from the template pages from that site. Lets say you have a sidebox called dogs when clicked it shows pictures of dogs and site 2 is pet supplies so you only want that box on site two.. you would load all side box info in the languages, modules, and templates files. and that side box would only show in site two..
so That is what I am trying to say.

now I have a question for you and anyone else.
I have two sites right now. and on site two I for the life of me can not get the categories to show up. I just can't seem to figure this out..
I read through this forum all day.. and done everything it said.
yes I have the <!--site1-site2--> with my site names..

as I was writing this I decided to try one more thing.
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site
decided to change to
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','0'); //root categories is 1 for this site
and from the change for 1 to 0 the categories showed up.. yes..
Sometimes you just got to write about it.

It is possible for this mod to test on sub-domain cuz rite now my domain a on same server but different ip address

[shahram]

THIS IS A LLINK TO THE Manual
I have no idea why it wasn't added to the addon..
http://www.thisdomain.net/dev/
that is a real link.

and follow that closely.. step by step..
then
the question I have to ask is is your hosting linux base or windows.

if it is linux.. search this forum for how to setup a addon domain.
it is in this forum..
this whole thing took me a while to figure out but once I did it was well worth it.
if you have any question.. I will try to get back to help.

my hosting on hosting linux base. It is possible for this mod to test on sub-domain cuz rite now my domain a on same server but different ip address ?

No i dont think so..

I think what my reasoning is that the 2, 3, 4, etc. site is template driven.. correct..

I appreciate your effort Noopie, But as i suggested earlier, Im not asking about Sideboxes. Your right, Sideboxes are template driven, But were not talking about sideboxes, Im asking about content on the index feature & Specials, which i doubt could be template driven without a Mod.

if you could get the sidebox you want to be different from the other sites to be called from the template pages from that site. Lets say you have a sidebox called dogs when clicked it shows pictures of dogs and site 2 is pet supplies so you only want that box on site two.. you would load all side box info in the languages, modules, and templates files. and that side box would only show in site two..

Hi all I installed this multisite module
site1: sneakerandjeans.com
site2: shop1.sneakerandjeans.com
But when I click any products or link on site2 it takes me back to site1?
I show all the products and catalog on both sites and I placed a test order on the site1 and there is no info for which site the order was placed from?
There is any way to print a different Invoice for each site with a site1 and site2 name? So that I can tell which site the order was placed on.
Also, is there any way to use separate payment options for each site so that the payments are kept separate depending on what site the order was placed on?
I need help with those 2 files how and where I need to add?
admin/orders.php (Allow the admin's to know where the order come from)
includes/classes/order.php (add the SITE_NAME to the order table)

[shahram]

one more thing which way i have to add domain to my cpanel Addon Domains or Parked Domain? do i have install 2 Root Directory for each domain or just a one

Hi

I have inherited three sites that have been done on a multi site platform, they are all reading from one zen cart admin but have individual ftp's.

what i need to know is, is it possible to change the category listings for one of the sites without changing it on all three ?

the sites are :
happiechappie.com
gaysexstores.com
happieladies.com

please be aware these are adult sites

as you can see two sites are for men and one is for ladies but they all have the same category names

any help would be really appreciated

I'm looking for a multi-vendor cart mall solution that allows store owners to have not only their own admin, but also their own payment and shipping system - for about 40 or so small 'stores' under one 'roof' - for those familiar w/the zencart multisite - could it handle this many stores - is there a limit? - and does it offer the multi payments?

thank you

Jackie

There is not a limit to amount of stores the multisite module will allow you to use.

You can also set each store to have their own shipping and payment modules. Depending on the payment modules you may need a Wild card SSL certificate, so customers can process payments right on the website and have information secured.

You can do it with a shared ssl, but it gets a bit tricky.

You can't however give everyone their own individual admin area. The admin areas for each multisite website are connected together.

Hope this helps to answer your questions.
