    I installed WP on my server, no problem. Then when I installed a second WP in a subdirectory with a different domain name when I go to the new site I get the first WP. What do I need to do to make a seperate, new WP that runs on the same db? thanks–

    You will need to change the prefix for the second installation of WP. By default it uses “wp_”, you can change it “wp2_” and it will keep the second blog happy.

    You need to install the second wp with a prefix different from the first. The prefix is in the wp-config.php
    —————————————————————–
    $table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // example: ‘wp_’ or ‘b2’ or ‘mylogin_’
    ——————————————————————
    By default, this prefix is wp_, choose another: cr_, gb_,.. for the second wp and launch the installation
