    it’s working exactly as it should. although they use the same database, using a different prefix lets WP treat the two sets of tables separately.

    you should be looking at multisite instead.

    are there any downsides to using multisite?
    I was kind of warned off it and directed to how I was doing it

    you’ll still have to add users to the 2nd site. if I’m not wrong they can have separate permissions for separate sites, but you can define this yourself.

    if you need some other admins to manage everything, you can make them super admins.

    they still use one account. you assign them to sites. sorry for not being clear.

    I get you. but is there a way to have the network automatically assign signups to a site?
    I’ve 3k accounts to move.

    The way our phpbb forums are set up is that once someone signs onto the WP,they are signed into the forum and vice versa
