Hi,

Can I use one Akeeba Solo database for multiple Akeeba Solo instances?

Yes, you could use different settings in the "Database table name prefix" field in Solo setup. That would create different set of tables for each instance of Solo.

Note that if you need to restore your Solo database, you can only restore the entire database. This would overwrite the settings in all of your Solo installs. This could be a problem under some circumstances.

Hi Dale,

Thanks. If I need to restore (parts of) the Solo database, I guess I will have to do that manually :)
