Enable multi-store support
NOTE: We are in the process of modifying the file structure and configuration for many Bitnami stacks. On account of these changes, the file paths stated in this guide may change depending on whether your Bitnami stack uses native Linux system packages (Approach A), or if it is a self-contained installation (Approach B). To identify your Bitnami installation type and what approach to follow, run the command below:
$ test ! -f "/opt/bitnami/common/bin/openssl" && echo "Approach A: Using system packages." || echo "Approach B: Self-contained installation."
The output of the command indicates which approach (A or B) is used by the installation, and will allow you to identify the paths, configuration and commands to use in this guide. Refer to the FAQ for more information on these changes.
Approach A: Bitnami installations using system packages
Follow these steps:
- Log in to the PrestaShop administration dashboard.
Navigate to the “Shop Parameters -> General” menu, enable the Multistore support and save your changes.
Navigate to the “Advanced Parameters -> Multistore” menu. You can share the same Store Group or add a new one. This example shares the Default Store Group. Go to your default shop (called “PrestaShop” in this example), and click the “Add new shop” button
Enter the shop name, choose the associated categories and the data you want to import from another shop (if needed). You will not be able to revert these settings. Click “Save” once done. Save the changes.
Change the URL by clicking the “Click here to set a URL for this shop” link. Enter the “Domain” and “SSL Domain” for the new shop.
Approach B: Self-contained Bitnami installations
Follow these steps:
- Log in to the PrestaShop administration dashboard.
Navigate to the “Shop Parameters -> General” menu, enable the Multistore support and save your changes.
Navigate to the “Advanced Parameters -> Multistore” menu. You can share the same Store Group or add a new one. This example shares the Default Store Group. Go to your default shop (called “PrestaShop” in this example), and click the “Add new shop” button
Enter the shop name, choose the associated categories and the data you want to import from another shop (if needed). You will not be able to revert these settings. Click “Save” once done.
Change the URL by clicking the “Click here to set a URL for this shop” link. Enter the “Domain” and “SSL Domain” for the new shop. Also, choose the “Physical URL” (by default /prestashop/ but change it to / if you moved PrestaShop to the root URL). Save the changes.
Edit the /opt/bitnami/apps/prestashop/conf/htaccess.conf file and add the following lines (replacing the example domain example.com with your shop domain) inside the IfModule mod_rewrite.c section.

Restart your Apache server
$ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart apache
You should now be able to access your new shop.
