UseBB Community

If my understanding is correct, multiple installations of useBB on one server require multiple copies of the source base. Eg Drupal stores the configuration files in a separate folder so that IIRC it is possible to run multiple virtual sites with one physical installation. (Haven't tested it though.)

Is there a way to use multple config.php files with one installation? If not, is there a chance that this can be done with usebb 2?

Another "solution"/proposal would be to have an index.php & config.php per directory, where the config.php contains the path to the common source base. 2 files per installation that don't need to be updated/upgraded would be acceptable.

Rationale: save space; need to update only one source tree that can be used in several forums.

BTW usebb2 for php4 will never be I guess. It appears the guys here won't ever upgrade to php5.

The UseBB 2 code already ables one to do this. The code library can be saved somewhere globally, only needing an index.php and dbConfig.conf.php.
