How do I display one same forum on 2 websites ? 11 Months ago  
Hi all,
I think I saw it already around but couldn't find it...
Is it possible to display the same forum on 2 different websites with 2 different URL?
Alternatively, is it also possible to show latest posts of a forum in another website?

thanks for any help

There's a Mulitsites component that looks like it does just that but I don't know of any other way to do it.

Well multisites component will copy everything in a new site but it will not really be updated at the same time right?
thanks for the answer

I don't think it works like that. It isn't a backup component (that I know of). I glanced over it's specs and it seemed to work the way you need it to but I don't know about updating. It should if all the sites are sharing the same database. I don't see why not.

Couldn't you just wrap the forum on the 2nd site?

Probably not the best solution but probably the easiest!

Yeah I thought about wrapping but probably not the best solution if I want the second website to be also seen by search engines.
So for multisites component, I think it shares same database yes, but creates new entries for the second install, with a new suffix isn't it? That's the way I thought it worked.

I thought of a second solution. fireboard has rss, so maybe I can display rss from my other website into this one to show latest posts what about that?

Not sure. I haven't gotten into RSS like I should.
