Can I use Hydrogen to have 2 different website stores but with the same shopify store in the backend? #821

Hi, I'm wondering if I can have the following configuration with stores hosted on hydrogen: Set 2 stores:
Being able to manage products, collections and orders from both domains in just one shopify store. I can filter the products by category in the code. And would be much simpler to manage stock and settings if I could do everything from just one end. Is that possible or would I need to have multiple stores in the backend and each one have their own app? |

We don't have native support for it with the Hydrogen channel; you would probably need to host your Hydrogen storefront somewhere else, but other than that I believe it would work. |

Sorry to correct you here @frehner — but you can in fact do this natively through the Hydrogen channel. You can create multiple storefronts, then have a unique domain pointed at each (ABC.com & DEF.com). You can currently create up to 25 public storefronts each with their own domain. You currently can't publish products to individual stores (i.e. when you publish to Hydrogen, that product is available to all Hydrogen stores), so as you mentioned, you'd have to filter that through code or by providing some logic like attaching tags to products/collections (e.g. There are a couple other challenges, for instance notification emails would need to set up some conditional logic for (if brand = ABC, use this domain, if DEF, use this domain). @felpsio — I'd be keen to chat through this with you in more detail and learn about your use case if you'd be interested in jumping on a call? I'm currently looking into this specific use case so it would be great to learn more. |

Hi @benjaminsehl, thanks for your help. I'm happy to know it can be much simpler than I expected :). Yep, it would be nice to have a call about my use case. I just DMed you on twitter. Let me know if you prefer another way communication channel. |

I believe it is no longer possible to have two public hydrogen stores tied to a single shopify account. |

It is (and this isn't a change), but you must be on Plus to have more than one storefront. |
