Guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I have searched for a contribution to this, but wasn't able to find one (possible because I didn't found the right term to search at?) Here goes: Is it possible to have fx. 5 webshops running using the same database for the catalog, but with different settings such as owner e-mailadress, shipping etc.? Or explained in another way: New products including images is only uploaded once, but used at all shops (works fine) but each shop should mail the orders to a unique e-mailadress..

TO ME, I would thank so just as long within that one shop you setup a different email address at your OSC admin setup! And as long as your shops are all linked to the same database? I would not see Y, but im not always right.... Im also working on this same thing, i beleive it will work i will keep you up to date... GL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 JJ21 thank you for your reply, but I'm not sure I get you right? If I change e-mailadress in admin controlpanel it is changed in same database as the catalog = changed at all webshops. Please keep me updated if you find a way round B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftwood Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I know someone is working on such a thing as I've seen it myself. At the moment can't find the link, if you search on Oscommerce Mall you might find it. Hope that helps. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- OSC user for years and no coder, so I've earned my stripes. Feel free to private message me.

dchism Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 The closest I've seen to what you're describing is the mini store contribution (just do a search for mini in the contributions section). Each store can have its own look but I don't think you can set each store to have it's own email since all stores share the same admin. I have it installed and it works fine. I currently have 3 stores up and running on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Monika in Germany Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I see no reason why this should not be possible. All that information is stored in the configuration table only, and is accessed via the alias set for it in the includes/database_tables.php file. It would be easy to create an admin section for the secondary options using only the configuration table parts, while one main admin handles the other parts. I would also clone the sessions table so each domain gets its own table. It may need some playing around, but the basic setup is pretty clear. IIRC, I have already given this tip to someone on the boards here and he implemented it successfully. :-) Monika addicted to writing code ... can't get enough of databases either, LOL! my toolbox: Textpad - Compare and Merge - phpMyAdmin - WS_FTP - Photoshop - How to search the forum Interactive Media Award July 2007 ~ category E-Commerce my advice on the forum is for free, PMs where you send me work are considered consultation which I charge for ...

PD_Steve Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 As Monika said, this is very possible and the way she described it sounded very feasilble to me. Word of warning though, I would add any and all contributions you plan to use prior to making the multisite system. I just see potential issues with possible SQL changes requiring specific files on all sites (that is, if you add a contribution to one site, you will probably have to add it to all before testing). This is probably only applicable for about 10% (if that) of the contributions, but just note that you may encounter problems with future changes.
