Two different store and categories in one domain and database..

Hi ZenCart,

Is it possible to have two different store in one domain and database..
with different layout and categories..
example store1 is in https://www.store1.com
then store2 is inside folder under store1.. https://www.store1.com/store2

Thanks,
Joe

Ye of course that is possible, you can have as many stores as you like.

how to do that? Thanks..

Just install the second Zencart installation (with its own database) in the subdirectory, as you described (/store2).

is it possible to install in same database?
is it possible to display different categories in every store?..
example store1 has categories name.. st1categ1, st1categ2, st1categ3
then store2 has st2categ1, st2categ2, st2categ3, st2categ4..
sorry for my bad english..

Yes, you can use the Multisite mod to do this.

Alright I could quote almost every post thus far. The multisite tool if I am not mistaken will help to manage multiple sites that are already installed and running. It appears from the questions asked that the issue is how to use one hostname and one database to provide more than one unique store.

The only part that seems to be missing is the step(s) to use the one database. Stevesh already provided directions to use multiple folder locations. To use the same database for each store but have them operate indepedently, use a different table prefix during installation/setup for each store. Recommendation is that the last character of the prefix be an underscore such as 'zen_'

Once the multiple stores are setup, then maybe the multi-site manager will be of more value/use.

For a multi site setup, only one database is needed
