Running two Forums on Xoops

Can I run two forums on Xoops, as I have a version 1 of a XOOPS forum on my site and it can't be updated, and I don't want to lose all the posts from this forum, so can I have another forum running along side with mine?

Thanks

Without a lot of work you can´t run the same forum module. However running a different forum than the first might be an option. E.g. 1 x newbb/cbb and 1 x newbbex might be an option.
At least from a very quick look it seems to be enough modified. (hervet would be able to confirm or deny this)


However ... why can´t you update the other one?
Sorry, this signature is experiencing technical difficulties. We will return you to the sheduled signature as soon as possible ...

Version one of Newbb can be updated, i advise getting a copy of WAMP….. change the php.ini upload limit, so you can import your full MySql… test the site upgrades correctly, at home first before touching the live site
There were upgrade scripts done, there are odd permission and changes that need adding, yet i did so also.....
As for two forums it depends if they are two separate systems else they might call the same data and functions....
