Multistore setup logic

[Dmitri]

Hi there!

Need some advises to understand the logic of multistore setup. I need to mage 3 stores with different themes and almost different product trees (some products should be available on  2 of 3 stores and some - on all stores).

I've created 2 additional root categories, sites, stores (all store with own root category) and store views and sites seems to working. I made a 3 products in these 3 different roots but all there products only available on default site. Is there any good explanation of the products distribution between stores with some practical examples?

Thanks,

D.

According these manuals I've setup

1. 2 additional root categories

2. 2 additional stores linked to these categories

3. 2 additional websites linked to these stores

4. 2 additional store views linked to these stores

5. In the stores-configuration-web changed base url and secure base url

6. in the apache's virtual hosts added MAGE_RUN_CODE for each website with it's own code and MAGE_RUN_TYPE "website".

in the result, each URL is being opened but all products only available under default URL. I will not try to install own theme for each site to make sure it really shows me different sites under different URLs.
