Guest skadera Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Hi, My client wants to run two stores off of one database. The stores will have all the same products but will have different domain names. At this time I am not sure if they will be on the same server. Is this possible? If so, do I need anything special to do it? Perhaps it is possible to load a different skin depending on where the user is coming from? Thanks, sk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, sk Why dont you just redirect the domain name to the master domain? YOu could mask the 2nd domain in the brower /url address so the user would never know they had been redirected! You would need to speak to your host to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skadera Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 That might work but I still need to show the other skin so it looks seamless. sk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brivtech Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Just about to test this out for an application we have. Will post the results to confirm if this can be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, skIf both of 'domains' are hosted on the same server there is no problem, i have used it for some clients. It could be used for one physical copy of CubeCart with different skin results too. If different servers, you need the remote DB access right to do it or do replications but not recomended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
