I have 3 differant forums that I am putting together and would like to have one login so that members can go into any of the forums and only have to login one time and dont have to relogin to any of the other forums to post. Any help on this.
My suggestion is that you use the same database for all of them. Probably things can go well with SQL Server or MySQL, Access won't handle much traffic.
Just setup your first forum normally. For the second forum, change the table prefixes in config.asp (you may want to leave a common badwords table, though). Execute setup.asp. After doing that, restore the prefix for the members table so that it is the same as for the first forum. Then do a similar thing for the third forum (as you did for the 2nd).
I agree. That is how I am running 3 different forums now. HOWEVER, the 3 forums are in three different paths and I have to logon to each one separatly. I don't know if one logon for separate Snitz forums is possible. The cookie carries the path and knows when you change forumjs (meaning the wholoe Snitz forum; different path).
ruirib, is that coorect? A separat login is required for each?
