Posted - 08/30/2020 : 21:08:36 Hello, I have bought multiple templates over the years for various site, each with their own DB, and was trying to see if there was a way to do multisite but with a single DB like what another ecomm offers. I have found one posting about this back from 2018 but do not really see any documentation on the setup and things to consider. Any one has input and gotchas about setting up a single DB for multiple sites, all on the same server? Thank you in advance for any guidance.

But do you mean multiple sites with different product catalogs? If that's the case, what is it you are trying to achieve by having them on the same database when setting up a separate database is so easy?

Dont get me wrong, I luv the package, just wish sometimes I did not have to go to each to update products. Hope that makes sense.

All sites would show the same products however. Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater
