 Topic: Seperating and Creating New Forums???
Posted: 30 December 2003 at 1:10pm |

All,
Hopefully, you can assist. I have the forum running nicely, and wanted
to create a second one, with a diff subject, on my host. The current
forum allows for multiple forums, but the forum header graphic is
geographic specific and not applicable to the new one I'm creating. So
I was going to replicate the forum in a new folder and tweak it
accordingly, thereby seperating them both. (e.g. the old one is NY
based, the new one is FL based)
I copied the files and palced them in a new folder, but after making
changes, both NY and FL boards are impacted, not just the FL.
What changes do I need to make to truly keep these boards seperate?
Thanks,
Jim

Well, no response yet. 
How about this: is there anyway to have different title graphics up top for different forums on the same server?

if you are using different files, but the same database just edit line 282 in common.asp

Thanks for the quick reply; ideally, I;d like to have a seperate DB, seperate everything. I've tried, but it keeps all tyoing into one, so if I chnage one forum, it changes the other. Any suggestions? Thanks for your patience...I'm a newbie, as you may be able to tell.
