How can I load two message boards on one website. one for male and one for female. I got two to load by placing the second one in a folder called mboard2. This works fine until I go to edit or delete postings. I seem to revert back to the original mbord when I try to Edit or Delte postings.
I ssume I need to change a setting somewhere else to mboard2. Any help?
PS I did just buy you some beers!!

Make sure you change the $settings['mboard_url'] setting in settings.php for the second MBboard. If the first one is

Code: Select all

$settings['mboard_url']='http://www.domain.com/mboard'; 
the second one must be

Code: Select all

$settings['mboard_url']='http://www.domain.com/mboard2'; 
Note that any changes you make will only work on new posts, old posts will still have the wrong URL.

two scripts on one site

Thanks, Where can I go to delete the cache of test postings that where diverted to the wrong mboard url. Hit the red delete button gives me an error message.

I would recommend that you start over - upload a blank entries.txt file and delete all files from the "msg" folder. Make a backup before you do!
