Running two of the forums with sepearate DB's on my hosting.  Lots of problems, both seem to share the same active users, so for example "Bob" will appear as active on both forums when he's only visited and signed up on forum 1.

Website names also get mixed up, the bread crumb nav bar root seems to take the other forums website name.

Couple of other things as well.  Guessing it's to do with the new version using global variables more freely, probably something that needs to be looked at?

They are sharing the application variables. You have to turn them off in common.asp for one of the forums, or put one forum in a sub-domain so it's a separate application.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

or one bruce could think about is adding a new field to the array storing the cookie value or another value (forum1, forum2), as both forums would have different.

 when the updating/viewing is done it checks to make sure the field value matchs the forum value, there by allowing 2 forums with active users.
