Must Required True multi store features in nopCommerce

Hello NopCommerce Team,

One of the most common issue that we have faced with nopCommerce while working on many B2B and B2C websites when using multi-store features are listed below:

# Topic pages should be allowed to configure per store. We need same URL in all stores, but different content. For example, "about-us", "contact-us", "privacy-policy" etc. These things cannot be accepted like "about-us2", "contact-us2", "privacy-policy2". Also, there should be configurable top menu or footer menu options per store. The best idea to do this is to provide multi-store drop-down and map required things in a different table, same way we do for languages or general settings.

# Categories should be allowed to save differently per store. For example, we need "Electronics" in top menu in "Store1" and not in top menu in "Store2" then this option is not available with limited to store feature. Also, if we need different images for category per store then it is also not available. The best idea to do this is to provide multi-store drop-down and map required things in a different table, same way we do for languages or general settings.

# Products should be allowed to save differently per store. For example, PRICE.. most of store owners need different product price per store they have and discounts are not a solution for it because they might need a non-uniform price difference in different products. Also, category mappings for that product. Now-a-days, store owners have to make multiple copies of products which change their URLs in an unwanted way. he best idea to do this is to provide multi-store drop-down and map required things in a different table, same way we do for languages or general settings.

# A customer from store1 should not be allowed to login on store2. This should be configurable if someone wants to use same customer across all stores but actually no one wants it. Customers should be always per store and can be distinguished in admin by their unique email address.

I think nopCommerce right now is not a true multi-store without solving above mentioned problems. We have mentioned solution beside every major issue that we are reporting here. It's the same solution that we have provided to our customers as well.

Looking forward to hear some positive reply form Community and nopCommerce team. Also, to see these solved in upcoming 4.30 on highest priority.

Hi,

Yes. I have seen this plugin but these features must be offered out of box in nopCommerce. Don't you agree that?

These are basic things that any multi-store e-commerce application should support and nopCommerce being #1 and becoming more popular in it's domain must offer these things first and above all features.

Thank you,
