Hi,
I am wanting to run two copies of bbpress one for the forums and for a modules directory like this site has. I was wondering if any one could share with me what all would be involved in sharing the registration system? And where I should begin to look?
I think if you define USER_BBDB_NAME and similar (prefixing USER_ before all the DB constants) you can get bb to get the user info from a different database.
I don't know if they use another install of bb here. They could just have made an extra forum, used a plugin to remove it from the normal topic and forum listing, and applied some special stuff (like the ratings plugin) just for that forum. And so could you. Don't know if that approach is any better.
