Second Vbulletin board.

[wac]

I have vbulletin with Vbseo on mysite.com. I would like to install an additional vbulletin test board on mysite.com/test/ with no Vbseo

Will there be any conflicts between the test board, vbseo and the vbulletin installed on root? I read something awhile ago about Vbseo's .htaccess causing trouble with other installations but can't remember if the setup was this way.

Each Web.config file applies configuration settings to its own directory and all the sub directories below it. As long as you install the site above or next to your current site, ie

inetpub/site1
inetpub/site2

site1's config will have no bearing on site 2.

putting it in
inetpub/site1/test/, it will inherit and you will need to disable test/ from being re-written.


You can probably add it to the exclude list

  <add input="{URL}" negate="true" pattern="(admincp/|modcp/|cron|vbseo_sitemap)" ignoreCase="false" />

to

  <add input="{URL}" negate="true" pattern="(admincp/|modcp/|cron|vbseo_sitemap|test/)" ignoreCase="false" />

and

  <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" negate="true" pattern="/(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/" ignoreCase="false" />

to

  <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" negate="true" pattern="/(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images|test)/" ignoreCase="false" />

Thanks Brian.
