How everything works?

[Zachery]

Well after spending a great deal of time with vBulletin pokeing and reading source code i have a decent understadnig,

Stage one would be installing 1 board the first, then modifiing all the files removing ' . TABLE_PREFIX . ' from every occurence that appears before user in every file.

once thats done, you move onto stage 2.

[rake]

Go get Editplus 2 and use the search and replace in files feature. Search for " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user and replace with: user

and tada! you've changed all the references to the user table in under 30 seconds.

Ive already got the majority of it done well.. everything in the root is changed. My memberlist shows all the members from my other forum, and I can login under my username at the other forum.. doesnt keep my logged in though.. im sure thats in the includes somewhere.

Ok, heres heres another question, is users all i change, or do i have to change sessions? etc etc Ive had it sharing the user database, but it wouldnt log me in for some reason, it would say i was, but after it redirected back to where i was.. i wouldnt be.

Ok, i got it reading from the database.. i dont know if the admin settings are off or something, but for some reason, it wont let me login as admin, with my login from the other site

Well if thats all you needed thats good, you are aware that this does require two licenses right? (to run two forums)


The messy stuff comes when you want to have specfic post counts for each forum, etc.

The post counts and what not dont matter to me. I do know that I have to get another license. After we run some tests on this one to make sure its not going to die we are going to purchase another.. probably monday morning.
