Problems setting up multistore

[majbom]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a shop with 2 fronts, but no matter what I do, I can't get it to work.

I think the system is very confusing and a lot of what happens doesn't make any sense to me. I.e. when I select a "root category" when creating a new shop, "associated categories" is still empty (only with some of the root categories) and I can't figure out why.

 

What I'm trying to accomplish, is a store with 2 fronts, each with separate categories i.e.:

shop_1: cat_a, cat_b, cat_c

shop_2: cat_d, cat_e, cat_f

Products from categories in one shop should not be visible on the other shop and vice versa.

I have trouble finding out if I need a group for each store and how to setup the categories (root cat or not).

 

Can anyone help me in the right direction, please?

global context 

add two root category 

root_1  associated to shop_1  (maybe need add at least one sub category)

root_2  associated to shop_2

then config the store and select their root category,

then change to the individual shop context to add their category,

Thanks! I think I made it work. It seems a bit unstable - I made a root-cat but couldn't choose it as main-cat for a new shop. Then I deleted the category and created it again, and then it worked
