HELP : multiple installations in one domain

[swj0126]

i just began to learn pixelpost, which is awesome!

i hope to install more than 2 pixelposts in my domain.
(different folder names, surely)

but i guess it doesn't work.

the reason why i am trying this is for making two or more different photo portfolios.
(just like different sites)


is any wisdom you can give?
i appreciate much for you.

You can install multiple installations, but you also need to create a separate database for each pixelpost install.

thank you kevincrafts,

how can i create a separate DB?

You don't necessarily need a separate database, you can install two copies of PixelPost on the same DB. In order to have a second installation of PP on the same database, you would change $pixelpost_db_prefix in includes/pixelpost.php, from "pixelpost_" to something like "pixelpost2_".

You should also note that you cannot run two instances of pixelpost from one set of files. You will need to upload two complete copies of all the PixelPost files in order to run two instances.
