1.4.9 Multi-Store: How to make modules site specific?

One of the issues with multi-store is that when a module is enabled on 'home' it shows up on all the stores' home pages.

Is there a way around this where code could be added to the relevant .tpl file to call up the module?

Can any of you PHP geniuses let me know if I am barking up the wrong tree here?

Cheers.

Hello! I have de same problem...
Modules appears in the same position in the different themes.
Is there any way to solve this?

Thanks a lot!

not currently. It's a bigger problem than a few lines of code as there is currently no way to store the information in the db.

Agreed-

It's not ideal, but you just have to add any info for the specific store in the theme itself -- i.e. hard code it :-X

It sucks, but it's the most straight forward way I can think of to make sure content displays for one site and not another.

Is it possible to even hide modules on specific multi stores?

on 1.4.9.x no not without some tricky coding. On 1.5.x this issue has been "mostly" solved.

well there were never any publicly released mods, so you can guess it's pretty tough since quite a few people did want it.

But if I'm satisfied with non-admin-control-like changes ie. hard coded then I can just add different theme to each shop and modify as I like?

Is it possible to hide certain languages from dropdown menu in spesific shops?
I was thinking to make copies of language files and set different copy for each shop to have my customized texts but I need to hide the other copies so that user can't choose them. I have multiple languages in use so I can't disable the whole language bar.
