Currently looking at building an ecommerce site which will be split into a main site, accessed via www.domain.com, and then looking at, if possible, separate sub-domains for ecommerce areas, ie products-a.domain.com, products-b.domain.com.
The same shopping basket is to be accessible across the main site, and the various products site.
Looking at the content tree of Umbraco, I foresee the following options. Option A would allow the basket to be accessible across each area.
Would Option B allow the basket to be accessible across each area?
Option A ====== Content > Main Site >> Home >> About Us >> Products A (is it recommended/valid to set a hostname here?) >> Products B (is it recommended/valid to set a hostname here?)
Option B ====== Content > Main Site >> (main site children) > Products A (set appropriate hostname) >> (Product A children) > Products B (set appropriate hostname) >> (Product B children)
