I have 2 websites running on one server... currently one is using CMS builder and i am about to use CMS builder for the other. before i install I want to make sure it wont interrupt or mess up the first cms I installed. They are 2 different domains, but hosted on same server.

Hi there,

Yep, as long as you're using a different database (or at least a different database prefix) then you can have as many versions running on the same server as you'd like. :) Just make sure you have a license for each one, and you're good to go.

Hi there,

If you're using the same MySQL database (ie, all the other details -- database name, username, password, etc) then yes, you would need to change the table prefix. Otherwise, you're on a different database and it doesn't matter. :)
