Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Hosting Software and Control Panels : vbulletin

i thought of asking this at the vbull website but i guess i'll try asking here. i currently have vbull running in a directory, 'vb'. this is a bulletin for my friends and such. nothing related to webhosting. i also want to create a support forum in a dir we'll call 'support'. do i have to run another instance of vbull with its own database or can i use the current one?

Does it support it nativly? I don't belive so... Could it be done... well sure

but it'd be easiest to have two totally seperate instances...

I'd say keep them seperate and install two versions in two directories. I'm not sure how else you'd do it.

Do you have an extra dbase to play with?? You would need one if you wanna run another instance. coz table names in both would be the same. Imagine the confusion.. kaboooom.

Plus according to there terms of service, you can run just one INSTANCE of ONE copy on only ONE server, right?
