 * ok I have a simple yet frustrating problem.
 * I am currently coding a script which i want to do the following in:
    – Loop through
   an array of wp config files – Include the currently selected file – Do stuff –
   CLOSE THE SELECTED FILE/CONNECTION – Continue
 * My code is perfect and fine, the wordpress being included isn’t.
 * When I include the first one in the array, it will connect fine and do the “stuff”
   i specify. But when it gets to the second array entry, it includes the file but
   continues to use the first file’s connection.
 * I tried mysql_close and even unsetting $wpdb but no luck, wordpress just doesn’t
   want to be closed.
 * Its so simple yet WP makes it so complex and irritating.
 * If anyone can answer this I will be very greatful.
 * Thanks
    J

 * dont close wordpress’ db connection.
 * use the new_link parameter when opening the second db connection.

 * well I can’t because im simply including the wordpress’ config file.
 * It works perfect until it tries including another file.

 * well youre going to have to elaborate on what you are trying to do. What you 
   describe above isnt enough.

 * ok
 * I have a custom script, I include wp-config.php INTO that script (include “wp-
   config.php”) but from an array.
 * e.g.
 * $array = array(“wp-config.php”,”anotherwp-config.php”);
    foreach($array as $value){
   include $value; // Do stuff // somehow close the current wordpress connection}
 * But as it is now, when the second config is included, the first connection is
   still used, not the second.

   files like that. But whatever..
