Version 1.4
=============
These modifications allow you to assign specific products and categories to multiple stores that you define in the administration panel. The products and categories
will not be able to be manipulated via the web-browsers address bar (like in most
other multi-shop implementations). Also, there is no "one store to rule them all".
You decide which categories you want displayed on which store-front. You decide
which products in that category you want displayed on which store-front. Shopping
carts are NOT shared between the sites.
I just installed osCMax v2_RC3_0_1 which seemed to work just fine. I did not make any changes to the install except to change the template from aabox to CSS-Fluid-1.
I then downloaded & installed multi-stores_v1_4MAX exactly as instructed in the 'install.txt' file included. I now get the following error when I choose from the category list on the opening page:
1054 - Unknown column 's.specials_id' in 'on clause'
select count(p.products_id) as total from products_description pd, products p left join manufacturers m on p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id left join specials_retail_prices s on p.products_id = s.products_id, products_to_categories p2c LEFT JOIN specials_to_stores s2s ON s.specials_id = s2s.specials_id INNER JOIN products_to_stores p2s ON p.products_id = p2s.products_id where p2s.stores_id = '1' and p.products_status = '1' and p.products_id = p2c.products_id and pd.products_id = p2c.products_id and pd.language_id = '1' and p2c.categories_id = '1'
This only appears to happen when I attempt to go to the category products list from the menu. If I go directly to the product from the "What's New" listing everything works out just fine.
Since I am new to osCMax I assume I have not done something that would be taken for granted by others more familar with it. Please help.
Thanks in advance.

I got the same problem, but I think the problem is caused by the Multi Store package (which I assume was coded for OSCMAX 1.4) is not compatible with OSCMAX 2.0.
Basically someone needs to work out the changes needed to add multistore to OSCMAX 2.0.

That's what I thought might be the problem however, the last update that was made to the mod was after Ver 2.0 and I believe reference was made to the changes that would be compatible with it.
BTW, thanks for the reply. This message and others that I have posted, including a "contact us" email concerning templates, have gone basically un-answered. This kind of help reminds me of another nightmare called MIVA which you also couldn't get help with nor did they have a great tutorial on how to edit the store. Oh, well, I guess newbies to this software just have to waste ridiculous time or simply move onto a more editable shopping cart.

Please be patient with this board. It is a growing community and the more people we get involved the better this and oscmax will get. Out of all the carts I worked with this one is very versatile. You do need some patience and have to do alot of googling and research on some problems but I have learned much from that.
I can not answer your problem as I have not added that contribution yet but plan to. I believe jpf ported that to work with oscmax and has it working. Maybe he might have an answer and I am sure he will respond if he does.

First, you should probably post any problems with the multi-store mod in the dedicated thread that actually deals with that mod:
Oh, and one last thing, you are not allowed to start complaining about us until you have at least 25 posts, and have become one of us, but then you can really let it rip.
As for your actual problem, I have never tried to install that mod.
