How do you set up multiple online stores (for more than one location) with the new Weebly system?

lalalimalala — Wed, 08 Apr 2020 21:20:48 GMT

We are a business with multiple locations and are trying to set up Pick Up without having to pay in store - how do you set up multiple online stores that are tied to physical locations with the new Weebly system?

New Square Online Store (Weebly) for Locations

OffBeatEatz — Wed, 19 Aug 2020 20:48:14 GMT

With the old Square Online store, you could setup a store for each location. Is it possible to do the same with the Weebly setup? It's not very clear on how that works and you see all items that you have setup in Square, no matter which location the item is specified for being a member.

Hey @OffBeatEatz!

I reached out to the Weebly team and they said multi-sites aren't available right now but they are aware of the requests for it and hopefully will be able to implement that in the future.

Do you have more than one online store right now?

@ashc Yes, we have three online stores. Thanks for the update!

@OffBeatEatz Sure thing!

Hopefully they'll all get migrated if this becomes implemented so you don't have to do the extra legwork.

If we hear back about an update on this- i'll come back to this thread to let you know too!

Thanks for posting your question, @lalalimalala. It isn't possible right now to set up multiple online stores, although that will be an option in the future. In the meantime, you can use multiple locations with a single online store. Customers will be able to choose a pickup location during checkout. This guide in our online store support site explains how to set up in-store pickup. You can have different settings for each location, and they will also respect how you have your items assigned to locations within your Square account, meaning it won't let someone pick up an item from a location if that location doesn't have the item in stock.

how to create second online store

sbrossia — Mon, 30 Mar 2020 18:06:14 GMT

Need to setup a second online store for a very different business. Already have multiple locations and a single online store. I am struggling to figure out how to create a second online store tied to this same account.

If this isn't possible, please advise. I will then go create another account to make my second online store.

thanks

Sean

Hey @sbrossia this is a great question. I merged your post with an existing thread to keep all similar inquiries in one place, but you will need to create a second account to have a second, separate online store at the moment. Our team is aware of this feature request and working toward a resolution, however I do not have a time frame for this.

I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!

2nd online store for 2nd location

Ppfb — Tue, 07 Apr 2020 16:26:37 GMT

I have 2 locations that have separate inventory. I would like to set up an online store for each location. I have set up an online store for one, but it only seems to let me choose 1 location as the location that controls what is in the inventory.

Is there a way that i can set up separate online stores for each location since some products are only available at one location.

Hi @Ppfb,

Really great that you have 2 locations! I would encourage you to check out the Manage Multiple Locations with Square page. The page goes in-depth on how to set up multiple locations and there is a section on multi-location item management. The key thing to note is that the multiple locations are all created from a single Square Dashboard.

Hey @Ppfb-

Thanks for posting in the Seller Community.

Please take a look at @AdamB's best answer in this thread. That should help from some clarity! Thanks again for posting and let me know if you have any questions about this.

I have this same problem. except I already had 2 locations. because I had to different kinds of businesses. which meant I had 2 websites. since the new weebly store. both sites got merged to one location. so what your saying is I can not set the one bath to the other location? this is something that should have been thought about before all this happened. because it is screwing up my inventory and my transaction reports. I can no longer keep track of how each biz is doing. and had to shift all customers to make a purchase. then edit it each time I have to do an email invoice.

I already had 2 locations with 2 separate websites because i had 2 separate businesses. but when I converted over to the new weebly, it merged both of my websites to one single location. how can I get the one back to being a separate entity like it was. it messed up my inventory and sales reports.

Hey there, @koalas_boutique -

Thank you for reaching out about your Online Store. I moved your post to a thread with a similar topic.

Right now, you are unable to run multiple separate locations in your Online Store. This is something on the radar of our Product Team, so I will be able to add you to the list of sellers who've already mentioned it.

Keep an eye for Product Updates for upcoming launches.

koalas_boutique — Thu, 16 Apr 2020 21:52:07 GMT

Thank you. Hopefully it happens soon. Like i said I already had 2 separate sites and locations and the shift to the new one messed everything up and just created a disaster with inventory and people being able to try and order items online.

@koalas_boutique -

I completely understand. Thank you for your patience!

I am trying to do the same thing. If I change the location, the item doesn't show up online. My 2 locations are very different products with different receipts. So, I would like to know which receipt my customers are receiving, for one thing. It also messes with my sales reports. This is extremely frustrating.

Hello there, @likewise -

Would you like your two locations to have separate online stores?

I will keep an eye out for your reply👀.

Re: New Square Online Store (Weebly) for Locations

likewise — Sun, 17 May 2020 23:30:38 GMT

Yes, it would be great if they could be 2 separate online stores. Heck, at this point it would be nice just to choose which location receipt the customer gets.

Re: New Square Online Store (Weebly) for Locations

Kassi_ — Mon, 18 May 2020 18:43:31 GMT

@likewise -

Ah I see! For those to have separate websites you would have to create separate Square accounts for each one.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
