CameraTek Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Hi all. I'm trying my best to use the multi store function but with no success. I've looked everywhere for some guidance on the forum but can't find anything anywhere. I've contacted my hosting company to point another domain name to the main website but still not working. Can anyone please point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitmoto Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I'm using multistore and got it all set up and all seems to be working fine. Except now I noticed that when I use www. on any of the shop domains it loads the main default domain. Does anyone know how I can solve this? main domain: pitmoto.com shop 1: atvdomain.com shop 2: dealerwanted.com If I add www. to the front of any added shop it will redirect to the main pitmoto.com shop. Any advice on how to solve this would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted November 26, 2012 Author Share Posted November 26, 2012 Don't know if you could help me again but www.tekshop.co.uk is working fine but www.cameratek.co.uk has only the logo and the footer showing. The main url is www.tekplanet.co.uk. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted November 26, 2012 Author Share Posted November 26, 2012 Pitmoto, I had that problem before and all i done was to set the url rewrite to off, save and then just set it back on again. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitmoto Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) Andy, I tried what you said but it did not work. I also tried your url and it does the same thing. If you use cameratek.co.uk it will redirect to www.tekplanet.co.uk. Yours is doing the opposite of mine. I bet you set up your shop url with the www. And that’s why it’s having the opposite effect. I know because I tired with and without the www. If you find a fix, please post and I will do the same.

CameraTek Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 All my sites r working. All websites have www at the beginning. The one thing you could do is make all ur sites the main URL. If I don't have this enabled then it wont show. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitmoto Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Andy Try going to cameratek.co.uk without the www. and make sure to clear your browsing history before you try it. You will see it derects to http://www.tekplanet.co.uk/. Seems we both still have an unsloved issue with this. Thanks for responding anyways...

CameraTek Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 Yes it does go back to the main domain. I have seen a post somewhere about this. I'll have a dig and find it. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjamin utterback Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Hello cameraTek, it does not allow you to order even though you have that option enabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Yes, the function is enabled, but on the front end the add to cart is grayed out, cant place the order. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 How many websites can multistore handle? Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hello CameraTek, I believe that Multistore can handle as many websites as you need. Also, considering your out of stock ordering. Try this in your Prefrences/Products 1) Allow ordering of out-of-stock products -no 2)Enable Stock Management - yes 1) Display Remaining quantities when qty is lower than (0) 2)Display available quantities on product page (no) Try that. Hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Hi Benjamin, I just deleted everything off the servers and re-uploaded again thinking it was the installation. I've set the site up as I would and with the allow ordering out of stock and its still the same, it wont let me place the order on unless there's stock available. I then set the site up as you suggested in your post above and it's still the same. It just will not allow me to place an order on unless there's stock available. Any other suggestions? Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Benjamin, have you any other suggestions for me as I need this function to work. When I get it to work I then need to set it up so that customers know that their pre-ordering the product. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Patron Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Andy...I just tested this per Benijam's post... worked great.... You should post screen shot of your preferences-->product http://screencast.com/t/WiIkHo4320 you can set by product (don't see how to do this globally, if there isn't then that's sort of dumb) http://screencast.com/t/6uVallEuSVF which in my testing gives me this: http://screencast.com/t/eTPaaLvD5Fc5 you should provide screen shots or links, much more helpful than just saying it doesn't work..if you are not getting anywhere on your posts...it's because you do not supply enough good information....now drop and give us 20 Edited December 4, 2012 by elpatron (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Hi, I've done exactly as Benjamin said, but still wont let me order. Had my settings the same as yours but still wont let me order How the hell do you add an image to the post? Tried everything but wont let me - I'm having one of them days I think :-( Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Hello CameraTek, if you keep all of the settings in my original post, you should be able to turn on 1) Allow ordering of out-of-stock products -yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Just noticed that all my products are set to deny orders in the Quantities tab. Is there any way for me to change all 26000 products on my database to default? Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Hello Andy, well it seems that you have found the problem. I know that there are some modules to do this, however, I also believe it can be done via the Database. I am not a mySQL expert however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameraTek Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 I got to 17 and collapsed Finally sorted the stock situation. For some reason all my products were set to deny orders. Done an update SQL and set them all to default. I hope I don't have to do that to newly added products as I use an import module, I get around 90 new products a day Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameraTek Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Not sure if you can help me out here I upload a CSV file to the server everyday witch has 26000 products on there, I have two websites running off this file but one of them is restricted to around 2000 products. I'm using multystore on that website where I have full control of the categories to be shown. The categories I want shown on the website is working fine but If I go to the back office and go to the products page all the products on the CSV file are coming up, that means that their visible on the website. If I go to the category page in the back office only the selected categories are showing. Is there a way of removing the products? cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

go2pub Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I'm using multistore and got it all set up and all seems to be working fine.

Does anyone know how I can solve this? main domain: pitmoto.com shop 1: atvdomain.com shop 2: dealerwanted.com If I add www. to the front of any added shop it will redirect to the main pitmoto.com shop. Any advice on how to solve this would be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure if you've managed to solve this yet but it's probably something in your .htaccess file that's redirecting the original domain from www to non www. You could try adding this at the very start of your htaccess files to redirect the second domains with www to non www before prestashops htaccess does it's magic. RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.com RewriteRule (.*) http://example.com/$1 [R=301] You'd need to do this for each domain that's being redirected to the main domain. I've not tested it but it should work provided it's put before any other redirects you might have in htaccess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
