I know there was something about this for V7 and I'm sorry if someone has posted on V8 but can someone help?
I have 2 forums running, both V8, and they tend to clash?
I sorted it with V7 but have totaly forgot what to do.
Many thanks in advance.
Mark.

all you need to do is change the prefixs for one of the forums this will allow 2 forums to run next to each other with no errors |

within the global_veribles file there is veribles that are added to the forum settins/ veribles etc and that will allow you to have two forums. everyones posts need moderating within the support forums only. |

I'm guessing you are reffering to:
/includes/global_variables_inc.asp
So for someone that hasn't got a clue... what now?

Open the file includes/setup_options_inc.asp In this file you will find a number of more extra configuration options, the ones you need to change are for the application variables prefix and the cookie prefix. You need to set a different value for each forum, this way you can run two web wiz forums installations side by side on the same site. The two that need changing are show below in red:- Const strCookieName = "WWF" Const strAppPrefix = "WWF" ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
