I'm trying to host multiple forums in a single MS SQL database.
I followed the directions in section 5 of the readme which describes changing the forum prefix on my first forums setup, in anticipation of adding more later. So it reads like:
strTablePrefix = "FORUM_name1"
strMemberTablePrefix = "FORUM_name1"
strFilterTablePrefix = "FORUM_name1" 'used for BADWORDS and NAMEFILTER tables
Then when I went to setup my next set of forums, I changed FORUM_name1 to FORUM_name2.
The configuration seemed to go well. I created a new database, and saw a new list of tables listed in SQL with the correct (new) names.
However, when I went to check on my old forums, I noticed that the title of the forums and the forum image had come up as the name and image from my NEW forums! Fortunately nothing else seems to have change; users, posts, categories etc... were all preserved. Only the title, image, etc.. were picked up from the new forums.
I'm not sure where I went wrong in the configuration. I even went back and re-did my config.asp on the new forums and reversed the name to be name2_FORUM but still no joy.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
Tom
