View Full Version : Setting up a second board

Currently, I have one vB license. That board is all up and running.

I'm taking over the web admin duties of a club I belong to and migrating us over to vB.

In the event that I ever leave the club or hand over the duties to someone else, I'm going to start a seperate account with vB. That way my first site info won't get mixed up with the club info. That leads me to a couple of questions:

1) Can I just use the copy of vB that I've already downloaded for my first site? Or by downloading vB after logging in under my first account is there a file that is changed slightly, with an id number or something, that would make it appear that I had only one license for both sites?

2) Can I register with the same email address for both accounts? Or should I use a different address? This isn't a huge problem but it's something I'd like to avoid for simplicity's sake.

3) Is there something else that I should be keeping in mind that I haven't thought of?

1. No, you neeed to use the vB files for the new license. You cannot share vB files amoung different accounts.

2. If you use the same email address, then both licenses will be under the same account. If you want these in separate accounts, you will need to use a different email address.

3. Not that I know of. :)
