Multiple Installs on the same WordPress Site

    Originally I was wondering if you could manage multiple databases with this plugin. I found a topic where that question was answered.

    However, I was wondering if it might be possible to have the plugin installed more than once, each install managing one database.

    If WordPress could see it as different plugins (ie, Participants Database 1 and Participants Database 2) would this work?

    Even if WordPress saw the plugins as separate, would both plugins end up overwriting just one database or would they each manage a separate database?

    Thanks in advance for your reply!

    By the way, the plugin is awesome and extremely versatile!

    It might be possible if you really knew what you were doing. It’s not trivial, the plugin wasn’t designed for this. I don’t support this use, so you’ll be on your own.

    Again, thanks for the reply.

    After doing more research I found out that yes, this is technically possible. But so many things would have to be renamed and/or slightly rewritten that it no longer becomes a viable solution.

    Yea, that’s how I thought it would go. It’s a good idea, I just didn’t do anything to make it easy.
