Multiple database question

Post by jackarow »

just wondering something,

the hosting i am using offers 1 sql DB that i am currently using for a forum/bulletin board. Must i have a separate DB for this script to run, or can they exist together.
i didnt want to install this script if it would corrupt my forum from working.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Sure, you can have both scripts in the same database as long as table names are different. All tables in Hesk start with the prefix "hesk_" so this shouldn't be a problem.

Nevertheless I recommend you backup your current database before installing Hesk, just to be on the safe side. But should work without a problem.
