I need to run 2 sets of forums on one site. Does anyone know of 2 that can run side-by-side? Or perhaps which can be cloned easily? The second forum can be basic and simple. I already have newbb as the first.

I had to do a find/replace, but it worked. I replaced all instances of bb_ to bbex_ and it installed with no problems. Thank You!

Gijoe is working on a duplicatable forum module: d3forum

It uses XOOPS_TRUST_PATH but all the details can be found on his site: http://xoops.peak.ne.jp/

The only thing about newbbex.... there is no option to moderate all posts.

d3forum has many of the advanced features I've been looking for. I had to define the trust path and I added in a little code to another file.... but it works great. Thanks!

All I can say is YO JOE! That's a GGGREEEAAAAT forum system. Can plug it in to any other module, and allows permissions on group and individual levels. More difficult to setup and administrate for a basic user, but for someone who can figure things out it is the best bet. Thank you again!
