My client can't see any of products - Magento - caching

I am having a weird situation. I worked on a magneto ecommerce website. My friends and I can see the products on the website, but only my client can't see any of them.
I suspected magento cache, so I refreshed and disabled all the caches. My client still can't see all the products. I made him to clear browser cache. It didn't work as well. I also let him use FF or Safari. He still can't see the products.
What is the problem??? I can't try any other things now...

In addition to checking multiple websites, are you logged in or do you have a specific customer group? Magento allows you to show products only to certain customers. Check to make sure that as a logged-out, anonymous user, you can see the products.
Hope that helps,

Have you configured multiple stores, websites or store views in your Magento instance? Whether or not Magento displays a product depends on a lot of settings, but if one user can, and another user cannot see them, it's most likely related to which store view they are accessing.
The store view Magento is showing isn't always determined by the URL alone, there is also a setting which is stored in the cookie and can be changed via a dropdown (in the default templates anyway).
Stores are configured via System > Manage Stores. If you have multiple rows in there you have multiple store views (or websites or stores).

Magento 2 - Transfer cart items from API to web store

I am creating a complex shopping configurator app that allows a user to customize and visualize a product which consists of multiple store items. Once they confirm their purchase, I iterate and add all of the selected products to a guest cart using the .../rest/V1/guest-carts API endpoint.
I would now like to forward the user to the store checkout to continue the purchasing process from the web store, e.g. https://store.url/checkout/cart. Of course, that basket needs to be populated with the items that were added via the API. I've looked through the documentation but not been able to find
anything relevant but I wonder if I can pass over the store_id or the quote_id and the relevant products be inserted accordingly?
Not sure if this is still relevant for you but, I was also working on a similar problem and came across this plugin for Magento 2. Basically what this plugin does is use a customer's token and a quote_id and creates a temporary session on the Magento2 Store and then redirect the user to the checkout page. This was a starting point for me, as I had to customize this plugin further to suit my requirements.
Hope this helps.

One website multiple stores in magento

Please help me on this.
How can i create mutiple stores in with a single installation of magento. It's not like what you are thinking.
Suppose my website is www.pstall.com, In the tech store it will be
tech.pstall.com or the flower shop it will be flower.pstall.com with
the help of sub domain. The shops order will be in their store's
admin. they will not share any data but they will share customer's
login. So that a customer can log in every store with same id and
pass. I will use a static page for the mother store. So that customer ca n easily visit the stores. The sub stores
will be children. The stores won;t share any data even admin. Just
customer information and login.
Please help me how can i do that. Thanks in advance
Try this..
Creating multiple store in a single website
You can do it in several ways:
create many websites
create many stores on one website (then you will have store switcher)
create many store views (then you will have Language switcher)
you don't have any restrictions here, but just need to set Base Url for each website/store/store view.
I would like to recommend you a #1 way and create websites. as later you maybe would like to show some of sites in 2 languages
here I did the same:
http://innativelife.com/
http://body.innativelife.com/
http://soul.innativelife.com/
and also some store can have dedicated domain
http://www.rastrat.net/
but will be placed on same admin
the only issue is that Magento CE not support admin separation per store. which mean - each admin will see data from all stores. But I know how to resolve it ;)
In Magento Multistore are created with
--one website and many stores or
--Multiple websites with each having one or more then one store.
Setup will depend on what all you want to share and what you do not want to share.
Domains can be subdomains(store1.site.com) or same domain(site.com/store1) or totally different individual domains.
To share customer across stores you need to create one website but mulitple stores within that website.

Magento Banners frequently loose the link to the related promotion

We have noticed that the shopping cart banners seem to frequently loose the link to the related promotion without anyone making this change within admin. Is there a setting that only allows a certain number of customers to see this banner and then it would be removed? I can’t think of another reason it might just drop the link. It isn’t dropping all the links, and it has usually been the lower value ones.
You need to setup cron.php to be accessed in a cronjob. Verify by hitting cron.php manually and see if that resolves your issue.

Shared shopping cart between subsites

I'm trying to get a fully functionally Magento 1.6.1.0 installation with 3 sub-sites and a main site (configured each as store inside Magento), that share of course the clients information across the all the stores.
The problem is that I can't seems to be able to have a persistent shopping cart across the all stores, allowing the customers to get products from a sub-site then another and so on without having to pay each time the shipping fees for what is at the end only 1 order.
I've followed several different tutorials that claimed to be able to achieve that but none of them worked as expected, and also none of them specified to which version of Magento they where supposed to work.
Any tip is welcome, thanks to everyone.

Have Magento respond to several domains with the same store

I would like to have my magento install respond to two different domains, e.g.
a.mydomain.com and
b.anotherdomain.com
I need magento to respond with the same store, showing the same customers, the same catalog, same prices, etc.
The difference, of course, is that when the store is accessed through a.mydomain.com all the links and urls should use this domain as baseurl, and when it is accessed through b.anotherdomain.com all links and urls should use b.anotherdomain.com as baseurl.
Is there any way to do so? All the documentation I've found so far deal with having different stores on the same magento instance, while what I need here is to have the same store respond to two different URLs.
Thank you!
Everything I know of Magento says it was designed to prevent exactly this from happening so as not to be penalised by search engines for duplicate content.
You can, however, have multiple stores that share customers and catalog and products and prices and so on, but represent a separate domain each. In System > Manage Stores add several Stores for a single website and use the same root category for them all. Then in System > Configuration > Web assign the various domains.
easy enough, just set them both to use the same store code (or just default)
have a look in index.php
you can set the $mageRunCode to be whatever you want, you don't have to use the server environment variables method they have there, look at earlier versions of Magento to see the index.php file there.
