Different languages for each store in a multistore

Post by Maria-S » Tue May 19, 2015 4:26 pm

Hello everyone,

I have a multistore (Version 1.5.6) with 3 stores:
eshop.example.gr
eshop.example.com.cy
eshop2.example-new.com

The 1st and the 2nd stores have greek as their default language and english as a second language.

For the 3rd store I have set up english as the default language. The problem is that it also has greek as a second language! I dont want that. I need the 3th store to be only in English.

Is that possible? Can anyone help me on how to do that??? Please help me

Thanks in advance

<?php echo $language; ?>

<?php if ($this->config->get['config_store_id') != 3) { ?>
<?php echo $language; ?>
<?php } ?>

@fido-x: Thank you very much for your reply.

I don't use the default theme, so in my custom theme header template file I have this:

Code: Select all

<?php echo $language.$currency; ?>

Unfortunatelly I am not familiar with php so I just did exactly what you said (the store_id of the 3rd store is "2"):

Code: Select all

<?php if ($this->config->get['config_store_id') != 2) { ?>
                                        <?php echo $language.$currency; ?>
                                        <?php } ?>

As a result the whole multistore does not work. I believe that is happening because next to "$language" there is "$currency;". What is your opinion? Do you have anything further to suggest?

Thank you so much for your time

<?php echo $language, $currency; ?>

<?php if ($this->config->get['config_store_id') != 2) { ?>
<?php echo $language; ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php echo $currency; ?>

@fido-x: Thanks for your quick reply.

I did what you said and.. nothing I get a message in dreamweaver, above the code of the header.tpl that says:

There is a syntax error in line 415. Code hinting may not work until you fix this error.

Do you think that this is the reason why your suggestion does not work?

Line 415:

Code: Select all

var responsive_design = '<?php if($theme_options->get( 'responsive_design' ) == '0')

I know this is not your problem but if you had time to help me I would really apreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Hello there,

I recently tortured myself on this subject to find a proper solution to handle enabled languages on each Opencart stores and I finally implemented a VQMOD module to handle the full process.

As you said before you have the simple solution of proposing some languages you want but you might be surprised with Opencart cookies : you might face the issue of having an unwanted language on a store who does not propose it due to language detection and some other functionnalities.

I recently released a module that allows you to handle it from the backoffice if you are interested in.
Here is the plugin link : http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... n_id=26264

I guarantee the compatibility from the version 1.5.4 as I spent most of my time testing it on every possible versions and I will probably continue if some people are interested in.

Here is a quick screenshot:
