    Default multiple blogs with same DB

    I have http://blog.mysite.com setup and working fine with Wordpress, I now need to add another blog (and maybe more in the future) on the same domain but with a different subdomain http://blog2.mysite.com

    I have googled and found that I can have multiple installations using the same database to save me using my database allocation and all of the upgrade issues upgrading multiple blogs.

    The problem is I would need to run command line scripts such as described here http://www.ryanmcdonnell.com/multipl...-code-changes/

    Does anyone know of a way we can do this on red fox with this or another method?

    Thanks

    You won't be able to do what that blog post is trying to achieve on RF.

    However, you can easily have multiple wordpress instances using the same database. Just install the second in the same way you did the first, just give it a different database table prefix.

    It's the line
    PHP Code:
    $table_prefix  'wp_'
    in your wp-config.php file.

    Change it to whatever you like before you run the install/setup script.
