    Is it possible to create and install a package on a database that has an existing WordPress site?

    I’m asking because when installing the package it removes existing data (if any).

    Thanks for the reply @corylamleorg

    I think you misunderstood the question.

    I want to use the same database for multiple sites / installations.

    Hey @bendm,

    My bad, I see… Yeah, the plugin is not geared to that scenario although you could use the database table filters to filter out tables if needed. Typically combining all the site’s data into one database is not recommended as there are more risks than benefits.

    Hope that helps~
