First post here so a cheer up to everyone in this forum and specially XOOPS developers.
I've been using a couple of other CMS so far and got my first taste of XOOPS yesterday. Great learning curve, straight forward understanding, just perfect. Very pleased with the tool.
I'm trying to place a number of fairly simple independent XOOPS sites ( 5 in total) and each one on a subdomain. Sites are targeted to completely different usergroups hence the need to have all of them separated. However all of them have everything in commun like same categories for forums, downloads, etc. The only thing distinguishing them visually will be some visual css changes. I'm not worried on doing 5 installations in a row but the thing is that I'll pass a big deal of time customizing and tweaking everysite.
Hence I was wondering if there's a way to duplicate/replicate (or call it whatever) one of the finished sites, do the same procedure with the database and reflect the changes to the proper files. Is this doable? If yes what will be the procedure to follow. I have some understanding of db and php manipulations so even if my nick is BrickTop I think I'll be able to follow your advises without much headache for you ;)
Thx a bunch
