Hello,

I just wanted to know how can I do something like:

- A copy installed on a forum ( domain.com/forum )
- Another copy installed on another forum ( anotherdomain.com/forum )

But that share the same user table? Like, if you register on whatever forum, you're automatically registered on the other!

And what about the cookies? I want something like, once logged in on a forum, you're directly logged in on the other...


Something like Google Accounts and YouTube, Gmail, Google+.... you only log in on one, you're directly logged in on the other!
It could be possible, but insanely hard. You'd have to go through EVERY MyBB file and search and replace
".TABLE_PREFIX."users
with
uniqueprefix_users

They'd also have to be connected to the same database. The boards would need different prefixes.

WOW! It seems really hard :o
Yeah, and there's even more stuff you'd have to do. So, pretty much impossible.
It's possible, but I doubt you'd get it done for free.
