Note

IMPORTANT: At this time fonts are not customizable for those who use Javascript to import their custom fonts. When custom fonts are not available, Identity will use Helvetica and Arial if the browser doesn’t support Helvetica.

Also note that only a single font is supported for Identity, so if headers and body copy require different font libraries, this is not supported today.

(Optional) Configure Multiple Store-Fronts and Identity

Aspenware Commerce can be configured to have multiple store-fronts operating from a single backend admin instance, where product configuration for the shop is done. Each storefront can have its own look and feel, language strings, custom domain, settings, products, and more. Similarly, Identity can be configured to work with multiple storefronts. A single instance of Identity can also be configured to work with multiple completely separate Aspenware Commerce stores, so that if you are logged in to one store you are logged into others, however, there are some limitations around what can be customized across store-fronts or unique shops for Identity.

If using the same Identity across multiple storefronts and/or stores, the custom URL across the single instance of Identity must remain constant. For example, Boyne Resorts uses a single Identity across all of its 7 resorts, so http://shop.bigskyresort.com redirects to http://id.boyneresorts.com but guests coming to this page from the Big Sky shop or Arrival see a Big Sky branded experience and language strings that correspond to Big Sky.

...

Other limitations include language strings, if two stores are operating out of a single Aspenware Commerce Instance, i.e. they share an admin backend, then they can have unique branding, but the language strings must remain the same across the stores. If two stores use the same Identity but have separate Aspenware Commerce admin instances, they can have unique brands AND language strings. For example, Boyne Mountain and Boyne Highlands, sister resorts in Michigan also use the same Identity as the other Boyne Resorts (http://id.boyneresorts.com ), however, these two storefronts share a single Aspenware Commerce Admin, so the Identity language strings for these two store-fronts are shared. In the image below, the items in yellow are shared across the store front’s views of identity, and the items in blue are unique.
