adeep Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Hi there, using ps 1.6.0.14 I want to set up multishop. My goal is, to have a 'mainstore' at mainstore.com, and a 'substoreA.com' and 'substoreB.com' each substore only visible for one country, with the specific currency. I want the visitors of 'mainstore.com' redirected to the right substore, selected by ip (geolocation). What are the right settings for mainstore.com (visible for everyone, for no one or for sected countries) and what the settings for the substore's. Thanks a lot for your help. adeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestaHeroes USA Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 what you want to accomplish is not supported by native PrestaShop. Also you want to be careful about 'duplicate content', if we use more than one gTLD (search) i.e. multiple .coms for same content there is high chance of being penalized for duplicate content. Another penalty is the number of redirects a shop might have, i.e. you want ip to redirect to another domain, you will be penalized. tip: geo location uses maxmind free IP data, which is 85% accurate (at best), so 15% of your valid visitors could be denied shopping. Hope this info helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrestaHeroes USA Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 ok. Thanks for informations. Can your 'Geo Targeting Pro' - module help to solve the problem? Hi, the module will solve the 15% issue as one can assign a default country when IP not resolved. It does not, now will it ever redirect country to specific domain. This should be handled naturally by search engine, i.e. they search and they find appropriate content for their country. I suggest search 'google ccTld', where they tell us how to avoid duplicate content, i.e. you have domains like .fr/.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
