Create a multi-store setup in Magento
0Provided you do not need an ssl cert for each domain it is relatively straight forward to create a multi-store setup. If you host with Dx3webs we will do this for you .. simply raise a ticket.
1) configure magento.
In system > manage stores
Add a new website, store and store view for your new site. Remember the code for the website.
2) Create a domain alias for you new domain pointing to your existing domain.
3) Add a little logic to index.php
umask(0);
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "newdomain.com" || $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "www.newdomain.com"){
$_SERVER["MAGE_RUN_CODE"] = "website_code";
$_SERVER["MAGE_RUN_TYPE"] = "website";
}
/* Store or website code */
$mageRunCode = isset($_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_CODE']) ? $_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_CODE'] : '';
/* Run store or run website */
$mageRunType = isset($_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_TYPE']) ? $_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_TYPE'] : 'store';
Mage::run($mageRunCode, $mageRunType);
