Magento: Setup Multiple Website

Mukesh — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 06:38:33 +0000

In this article, you will learn about creating multiple website in Magento.

Creating or setting up multiple stores in Magento is somehow easy but creating/setting up multiple website in Magento is a bit difficult task :).

This step-by-step tutorial will guide you to do so.

I suppose that you have installed Magento in folder named ‘magento’. So, your website URL will be http://yourwebsite.com/magento/

- Create Website, Store, and Store View

- Create Website
- Go to System –> Manage Stores
- Create Website
- Name = My Website
- Code = mywebsite
- Sort Order = 10
- Save Website

- Create Store
- Go to System -> Manage Stores
- Create Store
- Website = My Website
- Name = Main Store
- Root Category = Root Catalog

- Create Store View
- Go to System -> Manage Stores
- Create Store View
- Store = My Website -> Main Store
- Name = English
- Code = English
- Status = Enabled
- Sort Order = 10

- Change Link URL
- Go to System -> Configuration -> GENERAL -> Web
- Change ‘Current Configuration Scope’ to ‘My Website’
- Unsecure -> Base URL = http://yourwebsite.com/magento/
- Unsecure -> Base Link URL = http://yourwebsite.com/magento/mywebsite/

- Change Theme (Optional: If you want different design for your new website)

- Suppose your new design template and skin folder is named ‘mywebsite’
- Copy ‘mywebsite’ template folder to magento/app/design/frontend/default/
- Copy ‘mywebsite’ skin folder to magento/skin/frontend/default/

- Go to System -> Configuration -> GENERAL -> Design
- Change ‘Current Configuration Scope’ to ‘My Website’
- Themes -> Default = ‘mywebsite’
- Uncheck ‘Use Default’
- Save Config

- Create a new folder named ‘mywebsite’ inside ‘magento’ folder.

- Copy index.php of magento folder into mywebsite folder.

- Open index.php of mywebsite folder.
- Change $compilerConfig = ‘includes/config.php’; to $compilerConfig = ‘../includes/config.php’;
- Change $mageFilename = ‘app/Mage.php’; to $mageFilename = ‘../app/Mage.php’;
- Change Mage::run(); to Mage::run(‘mywebsite’,'website’);

- Copy .htaccess file from magento folder to mywebsite folder

Finally, you have created a new website for your magento shop. Your base installation can be browsed by http://yourwebsite.com/magento/ and your new website can be browsed by http://yourwebsite.com/magento/mywebsite/

Hope this helps. Thanks.

Multiple file upload with jQuery and php

Mukesh — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 07:59:08 +0000

Here, I am going to show you how easy it is to upload multiple files with the help of jQuery and PHP.

I suppose that you are familiar with php and apache web server.

Let our folder name be ‘test’. Let us create a file called ‘index.php’ inside test folder. Inside the ‘test’ folder, you have to make another folder named ‘uploads’. The files will be uploaded into this folder.

We need few more things. We need the jQuery js files. Download the following two files and keep inside the folder ‘test’.

http://jquery.com/src/jquery-latest.js

http://jquery-multifile-plugin.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/jquery.MultiFile.js

Below is the complete code for multiple file upload:

 $error)
    {
        if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK)
        {
            $tmp_name = $_FILES["pic"]["tmp_name"][$key];
            $name = $_FILES["pic"]["name"][$key];
            $uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($name);

            if (move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, $uploadfile))
            {
                echo "Success: File ".$name." uploaded.
";
            }
            else
            {
                echo "Error: File ".$name." cannot be uploaded.
";
            }
        }
    }
}
?>





Multiple File Upload with jQuery and PHP

There is one important thing to be noticed.

You have add “[ ]” to name of your element. And you also have to add class=”multi”.
