Make sure you change the scope to the new storeview when you change the settings. These links will help you with setting it up properly: crucialwebhost.com/kb/how-to-setup-multiple-magento-stores, properhost.com/members/knowledgebase/30/…, rabbitpills.com/2013/04/28/…
Mar 26, 2014 at 14:24 comment added Stan Lindsey I've created a new store + storeview under that, but I've no idea how to navigate to that.
Mar 26, 2014 at 14:23 comment added Stan Lindsey Yeah, after a few refreshes the error disappears but now the site has a half-loaded default theme (not the one I'm currently using as a jumping off point). Hmmm..
Mar 26, 2014 at 14:18 comment added Sander Mangel and it doesn't create the new storeview? Sounds like you have some issues in your installation then. Normally Magento would create a new flat category data table automatically and fill it during indexing.
Mar 26, 2014 at 14:16 comment added Stan Lindsey If I enable a new store view I get the following full body error message on both my normal view and the new one: SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'sdksales_mage1.mage_catalog_category_flat_store_5' doesn't exist
Mar 26, 2014 at 14:12 comment added Sander Mangel you can put it on a subdomain like staging.domain.com and remove the store switcher that is provided in the base theme. To require login on this shop might be a bit trickier. You can try using github.com/sandermangel/rkstorelogin which is stable. Used it in 2 other projects on Mage 1.8.1.0
Mar 26, 2014 at 14:09 comment added Stan Lindsey And it is possible to make this new store non-public?
