Is my magento installed on port 81 presents a problem?

would you be able to contact me directly via email? I’m having an issue with the wordpress + magento install where enabling the plugin immediately causes a cascade of errata in the footer section of the site, and it’s a bit large to be pasting in here.

wordpress is installed in the docroot, magento is installed as a 2nd storefront in a shop/ subdomain (shop.mysite.com)

as soon as mage-enabler was enabled and configured, the footers disappeared. I had to turn on wp_debug to see what was going on, and it was a bit more than I had expected.

You may use the setStore method.

we have an existing magento site, and want to create a new storefront for it with different theme, sharing some products but in different categories, and with additional products unique to this store.

we want to template the front end more like a cms with portfolio etc, and a single link in the wp site to the shop section.

not quite sure of the question to ask, but generally my query is how would you use this plugin to access mystore2 inside magento instead of the main store?

I have a project in development, that has a wordpress site on one domain and a magento site on another domain. When transfering the session over, I append the SID to the URL, and it almost works.

By almost, I mean this:
1) You can add items to cart in wordpress, the cookie sessionID stays the same throughout this.
2) I send the user to the magento site, via a header location, or presenting a link for them to click, with the session ID at the end of the url, such as: http://magentositehere.com/checkout/cart?SID=b72k45bsh1igsvkojva4o33d27
3) The cart appears empty, and if you pay attention to the cookie id, it has switched at this point.
4) Refresh the page, by pasting the URL in, and the cart works properly, maintaining the cookie session ID
5) Now, if you go back to the wordpress site, and add differnt items to the cart, and go back to the magento site, the cart and cookie session ID work as you would expect.

I can duplicate the issue by purging the cookies in the browser cache. It starts the whole thing over, with the cart appearing empty.

Have you seen this? I suspect rewrite rules, but cant find the issue yet. Any help would be very appreciated.

Hi Richard!
I really can’t get the cookie “frontend” show up. I’m using Magento 1.5.1

Just to add to my message. Would it be a cache thing? I’m running both programs locally with a blog folder inside the main magento folder.
Should I set the cache system in the configuration in MAgento somehow?
