MultiSite Module Support Thread

Luke,

In response to your pm. Multisite seems to be working fine so far, for my needs, in v1.50. You'll need to be more specific on the difficulties you're having before I can give you any info.

cheers

Simon

thank you when i get home ill work out where i got to if i remeber right i had a white page probly got a code error somewhere

Luke

I am working with zencart 1.5 on a test database. I am trying to install this add on (even though I know it is not for 1.5 version of zencart) so I can have 2 stores on 1 cart. So far, I am unsuccessful with this addon. I have read posts on this thread that some has managed to get this add on working on the latest zencart. Please those who managed to get this to work on zencart 1.5 post the instructions for the rest of us who has updated to the latest cart version?

Looking at my install of this mod - as I'm not interested in having different meta tags for each site I decided to ignore the merging of this file.

That's good to know, Luke. I think I'll combine the meta tag code aswell now. I may need to use that facility in the future.

I have it installed now but when i try to define language and currency its's not working can anyone help me out

Here is the define for the language and currency in the config file

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'SEK');
define('LANGUAGE_DEFAULT_SELECTOR','se'); //Language Selector

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'USD');
define('LANGUAGE_DEFAULT_SELECTOR','en'); //Language Selector

is that right or?

anyone know where teh new location for the instructions might be?

both instructions are in the file that you download from free addons

one is a pdf file and the other is a text file you need to read these instructions carefully (remember this module dosnt merge easy with v1.5)

Gerome:

.... As for the banners, I never done anything with it at the moment, just because I don't really use banners. You can add sideboxes specifically to a template (and so, to only one site...). I guess it should be simple to use the constent SITE_NAME in the banner's name and then to modify the query that would only show the banner for the site...

When I have to do any kind of banner for a site, I dont use this module but I make my own sideboxe for a banner and then I put it whereever I want.

Has anyone managed to use banners with Multisite?

I've tried using the SITE_NAME constant in both the banner name and html desc. and added the 'Execute(cat_filter' in /includes/functions/banner.php - no luck.

Robbie_79:

In your database, add a column to your ORDERS table called SITE_NAME. (varchar 32, NULL by default will do fine)

In the orders class, AFTER the $sql_data_array array, add:

//Multisite Module - Add the order_site in the order table
$sql_data_array['order_site']=ORDER_SITE;
//eof Multisite Module

Hi Guys!

I'm having troubles viewing where an order comes from via the admin panel. I was directed to check out post 1351 (above) and have since added the column SITE_NAME to my database.

However, I'm not sure where to put the code in the includes/classes/order.php file, as there are 19 instances of '$sql_data_array'. 

I'm running Zen Cart version 1.3.9h, with the latest version of the Multi Site module.

If anybody knows how to do this exactly, I'd love some help. Thanks!

I'm currently using Multisite and banners on my sites. I created extra banner groups in order to have separate banners for each site.

tracey, in the readme I found this:

#######################################
### FILE includes/classes/order.php ###
#######################################
Line 613:
                            'ip_address' => $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] . ' - ' . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']
                            );
Replace by:
                            'ip_address' => $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] . ' - ' . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']
                            );
//Multisite Module - Add the order_site in the order table
$sql_data_array['order_site']=ORDER_SITE;
//eof Multisite Module

In my setup, the //Multisite... lines are on #645 - I'm running Zen v1.50

I'm currently using Multisite and banners on my sites. I created extra banner groups in order to have separate banners for each site.

Thanks for this, I'll take a look at it. At first glance I'm not sure if it applies as I'm using a single template for all my sites. Perhaps it'll be clearer to me in the cold light of day.

Hi Guys,

Just to add my experience on making Best Sellers Page(by yellow1912) add on to support multisite module.

It is very simple, just add in the cat_filter will do.

File to edit
/includes/module/pages/best_sellers/header_php.php

Line 38
From:
$listing_sql = $db->bindVars($listing_sql, ':languageID', $_SESSION['languages_id'], 'integer');

To:
$listing_sql = $db->bindVars(cat_filter($listing_sql), ':languageID', $_SESSION['languages_id'], 'integer');

Hope this helps.
