Different WooCommerce Sgements

    I have a site running WooCommerce but I actually have two different segments in my products, marked as such by using the product_tag taxonomy. What I need is to create two separate instances of WooCommerce, one with full ecommerce and using one product tag, one without using the other product tag.

    We were looking at multisite, but one of the key factors is that all product data is fed in through a feed and needs to be on one site. Also, there are strong relations to the two product types. We could sync the data through a cron task to make sure it remains the same, but we also have ACF custom fields associated and this would become quite tedious. We are looking for a better solution.

    Any ideas?

    Rather than have 2 instances, why not have the ‘2nd tag’ products have no price, and/or external product type so they are not purchasable on the site?

    The two sets of products, tools and parts, exist in separate hierarchies. The tools are not purchasable. The problem is setting up two different sets of slugs, rules, ect to get the full Woo behavior out of both. Can you explain what you mean by external product type?

    Tools and parts can be separated by category.

    ‘External’ is a product type which does not show add to cart buttons.

    Thanks for explaining. Unfortunately, categories are controlled by an external feed. It seems we’ll have to go the multi-site route.
