Hello Guys,
I am facing a problem in configuring multi-store in PrestaShop 1.6.x and I couldn't find a single tutorial / post online explains how to configure multi-store end-to-end across all aspects (Prestashop, cPanel, second domain configuration...etc.) in addition all posts are very technical where i get lost in the technical jargon:
The multi-store I want to create is: (these domain names are for explanation purposes only)
Main shop called www.sports.com and another two separate stores www.football.com and www.swimmingstore.com to keep it simple, I don't want to share orders or customers or products or carts across these different stores.
The steps I did were the following:
I registered all domains.
main store www.sports.com:
Registered the domain www.sports.com for example with godaddy.com Hosted the domain > the domain point to the host server Installed Prestashop using cPanel Enabled Multi-Store Created new group called outdoor
Created new Shop www.football.com , ShopGroup: outdoor The www.sports.com URL information is Domain: sports.com SSL Domain: sports.com physical URL: /shop/ virtual URL: <empty> final URL: http://sports.com/shop/
The new store (www.football.com) URL is Domain: football.com SSL Domain: football.com physical URL: /shop/ virtual URL: <empty> Final URL: http://football.com/shop/
I went to www.sports.com cPanel and parked www.football.com I changed the theme for www.football.com to look completely differnt
The first issue: When I access www.sports.com from the browser, it opens www.soprts.com/shop/ on the browser header it shows football (I don't know why)
The Second Issue: When I access www.football.com I am trying to open www.football.com/shop/ in the web browser i am getting 404 not found.
I really appreciate all help to confirm what i did and how to solve above issues, missing steps ..etc..to make the multi-store multi domain works...
Thank you in advance and looking forward to hear from you guys.
Regards,
AB
