Basara,
I did both (and thank you for looking into) Please note that my New Store Status is indeed turned on....which I assume I'm sure it is correctly turned on ... being that the URL of the subdomain shows my abantecart preloaded with the default template. ....and actually everything that is preloaded in the default template and default store, i.e., all the with the categories / images / etc (hair - make up - etc) that is preloaded when first setting up Abantecart. See - .cookingoutdoors.tomato-joes. ALSO, my subdomain is the same root as my main domain. public_html/
Another thing. In my categories section, I see that I can manage categories for Outdoor Cooking (my subdomain), ... and also manage categories for my default(main domain). When I look at Outdoor Cooking (my sub domain)....., I only have ONE Category listed within the category management page for Outdoor Cooking....which I made...and that is GRILLS. But when you go to the URL....it shows only All the categories that are listed on my categories update area for my Default site. And never once will show Grills...unless I actually choose the Default store while managing the GRILLS category, ... then and only then will it actually show in my sub domain URL. Basically my sub domain can only look exactly my default store....and never anything different.
Abolabo,
I did copy and paste your config.php (thank you)-- But I AM STILL having the exact same issues as above. Basically nothing works when updating within the Sub Domain site drop downs...such as categories and products...unless I choose my default store. However, my sub domain URL is actually working and active with all the configs that I update / change within my Default page.
Possibly I'm just missing something ridiculously basic, but I'm thinking I'm set up exactly correct. Thanks for your help. I really really want to utilize Abantecart, but day two and still cannout use mulit-store. Please help if you can.
