From the Configuration menu, click Global Config Parameters.

These settings affect how ALL stores in the MultiStore install function. See this page for information on settings that can vary by store.

 

GlobalConfig Name	Description
AllowAffiliateFiltering	This setting determines whether Affiliates function on all stores or if they can be mapped per store. If this is set to Yes, Affiliates can be mapped specifically to stores.
AllowCouponFiltering	This setting determines whether Promotions function on all stores or if they can be mapped per store. If this is set to Yes, promotions can be mapped per store, and customers will receive an 'Invalid Promotion' message if they try to use a coupon/promotion on a store it is not mapped to. See this page for information about Promotions. Mapping information can be found here.
AllowCustomerDuplicateEMailAddresses	This setting determines whether customers' email addresses must be unique, or can be re-used. Allowing duplicate email addresses can cause confusion between purchases, and make accounting more complicated as multiple customer records may have the same email. We almost always recommend that this be set to No, unless AllowCustomerFiltering (see below) is set to Yes.
AllowCustomerFiltering	If this is set to No (recommended), a customer that registers on one of your MultiStore sites also becomes registered on all other stores in that instance. Their login, addresses, order history, etc will be shared across all of the stores. If set to Yes, the customer must register independently on every store. Setting this to Yes requires that AllowCustomerDuplicateEmailAddresses be set to Yes as well.
AllowEntityFiltering	If this is set to Yes, entities (categories, manufacturers, departments, etc) will only show up on the stores that they are mapped to. See this page for more details.
AllowGiftCardFiltering	This setting determines whether Gift Cards function on all stores or if they can be mapped per store. If this is set to Yes, Gift Cards can be mapped per store, and customers will receive an 'Invalid Gift Card' message if they try to use a Gift Card on a store it is not mapped to. See this page for more details.
AllowNewsFiltering	If this is set to Yes, News Articles will only show up on the stores that they are mapped to. See this page for more details.
AllowOrderOptionFiltering	If this is set to Yes, Cart Upsells will only show up on the stores that they are mapped to. See this page for more details.
AllowProductFiltering	If this is set to Yes, Products will only show up on the stores that they are mapped to. See this page for more details.
AllowRatingFiltering	If this is set to Yes, customer product Ratings will only appear on the store they were created on, even if the product is mapped to multiple stores.
AllowShippingFiltering	If this is set to Yes, fixed Shipping Methods will only appear on the stores they are mapped to. If this is set to Yes, make sure that every store has at least one shipping method mapped to it or customers will be unable to check out on stores without a mapped shipping method! Real Time Shipping rates cannot be mapped per store!
AllowShoppingcartFiltering	If this is set to No, customers can add products from multiple stores to a single cart, and check out on any of those stores. Note that AllowCustomerFiltering must also be set to No for this to function.
AllowTemplateSwitchingByLocale	If this setting is set to Yes, the stores in this install will be able to switch to another skin when a customer chooses a locale.
AllowTopicFiltering	If this is set to Yes, Topics will only show up on the stores that they are mapped to. See this page for more details.
LicenseKey	This value should not be changed unless directed by support staff.
Anonymous.AllowAlreadyRegisteredEmail	This setting determines whether email addresses that are already used on a registered account can be used for anonymous purchases. If Yes anonymous users will be able to checkout with email addresses that are already in use. If AllowCustomerDuplicateEMailAddresses is Yes this setting has no effect.
BuySafe.Enabled	To enable buySAFE set this to Yes. If this is set to No, buySAFE will be disabled.
BuySafe.EndPoint	The buySAFE API endpoint. Please do not change this setting.
BuySafe.GMS	Your buySAFE GMS (Gross Monthly Sales average).
BuySafe.Hash	The buySAFE Hash value is the unique identifier for your buySAFE account. Please contact buySAFE if you have any questions.
BuySafe.RollOverJSLocation	The buySAFE javascript location. Do not change this value.
BuySafe.TrialStartDate	The date on which your 30 day BuySAFE trial started. This is for your reference only and changing this value will have no effect on the trial period.
BuySafe.UserName	Your buySAFE user name. This will be populated automatically when starting the free trial.
