i have a main store, let's say it is: company.com
in this site i manage all product stocks and all existing products
i want to create another store (website) for wholesale buyers and create it at: wholesale.company.com
i have problem setting my dns on domain registrar website
my main site has record @ "A" with my server IP address, i use VPS with IIS on it
i created new record wholesale "A" with my server IP
my main domain (company.com) has SSL certificate, new subdomain does not have certificate, so i configured subdomain (wholesale.company.com) this way in admin:
Store name: COMPANY WHOLESALE
Store URL: http://wholesale.company.com
SSL enabled: NO
HOST values: wholesale.company.com
Display order: 2
now it just redirects to main site https://company.com
so i have following questions:
1. how to set subdomain for new store (multi-store feature)? what am I doing wrong?
2. are there any other ways to have totally separate website with separate admin side but using old site stocks inventory, categories, products and etc? for example, if i increase stocks on company.com then it also must be the same on wholesale.company.com (stocks must be updated automatically whenever theres is increasing or decreasing stock on company.com)
thx
