A word about scope


In Chapter 1, Planning for Magento, we discussed the Global-Website-Store methodology. When planning your Magento installation, you set up whether your installation would have one or more websites, each with one or more store views. As you go through this checklist, you need to pay close attention to the scope in which you are updating configurations and designs. For instance, as we discuss base URLs, take care that your store view is set at the proper level for the configuration. In other words, if you're updating the base URL for the entire installation, your store view is Default Config. On the other hand, if the base URL applies only to your English language furniture store view, then set to that store view.
