drupal duplication

Mon, 30/04/2007 - 10:36 — Anonymous

thanks guys for the other question, got another one now; say i have some sort of drupal system.

 Apparently you can have more that one site running from the same system.???

Is what i said above true and if so how is that possible?

 

So i suppose what i am saying is this site could be created for something else as well as this site.

 

However that brings up another question - does the design have to be the same?

 

But i suppose you can copy and paste an entire system as well?

 

For instance you can have this site, remove all the information and call it by another name.

 

Sea shell news and discussions for instance?

 Yes it's possible. you use the same code base, but your data will be stored onto a separate database + themes  (and contribute / custom modules if you wish) will also be stored in a separate folder. so they are two separate sites.

 

>>However that brings up another question - does the design have to be the same?

No. As the answer above suggests, you have a separate theme folder, so you can store and use any theme that you want for each site.

yes.
