Solved: Prestashop Multistore on Cloudways Hosting?

[Christiaan_01]

Hi all,

 

First of all, I do have experience in setting up Prestashop Multistore on regular hosting accounts with Cpanel.

Now I've hosted my PS website on Cloudways hosting.

Unfortunately there's nothing there to park a domain, which is the regular procedure for PS Multistore.

 

There's a field called 'additional domains' in Cloudways.

I entered domainB.com there, and added a Cname record in the DNS pointing to the Cloudways app, but nothing happens (even after waiting a few hours).

 

Does anyone know how to set up Prestashop Multistore on Cloudways?

 

Thanks for any input,

 

Christiaan

Problem solved.

 

For those interested in how to use Prestashop Multistore in Cloudways, here's what to do:

 

- Set up Prestashop Multistore in the regular way (add DomainB.com as the URL, the usual procedure for multistore)

 

- Go to your Cloudways ClicknGo -> Application Management -> Domain Management -> Add domainB.com to Additional Domains.

 

- Go to your domain hoster and edit the DNS settings of DomainB.com: Add 1 record:

Name: www.domainB.com

Type: CName

Value: prestashop-cloudwaysnumber-cloudwaysapps.com

TTL: 5 mins

 

You might have to wait 24 - 48 hours for the DNS propagation to take place.
