MySQL

[TheDDI]

Im guessing the true nature behind the MySQL database is that you can use it for multiple things, not just a forum. Am I correct? I've always done a one item for one database, but it seems I run out very quickly...

Just make sure there is a table prefix for each script. Such as smf_users. Most scripts do that automatically.

You can use a mysql database for any number of things at the same time aslong as there are table prefixes.

i.e.
smf_
vb_
site_
shoppinglist_
