Hi!

I have one database at my webspace. Would that be enough for running the script?

Hope so...but should be okay ... isnt it?

Thank you!

oh i thought i answer this...lol

yes you can run the script.."phpnuke"..?...with one database..
all tables have the prefix "nuke"..so it wont get in the way with something else.
however keep in mind that when installing more stuff a "prefix"...is desired.

If you use the NukeTreasury donations module, it is recommended by the developer that you have a separate database. But this isn't required - you can store the NukeTreasury tables in the same database as Nuke.

huh?.. NukeTreasury...?
Where did he mentioned that?

He did not mention it, but it's the only issue I'm aware of that suggests having a different database. That's why it says "if you use..."

Well kguske,but that wasnt his question ....lol
As he names a"script" its save to asume he means phpnuke.
And...if 1 database is enough...
Thats why i said yes...but if we do our best we could come up with a few other scripts that have different prefixes.
As for the treasury ...well nice to call it nuke,specially without any prefix and suggest to use a different database.

Thanks, hitwalker, but I think we both answered his question in different ways. I assumed that he meant PHP-Nuke, and the only reason I can think of that one would ask whether it was OK to use one database with PHP-Nuke is that one might be using NukeTreasury with PHP-Nuke, which recommends to use a separate database. Different interpretations of the same question - both valid - and both appropriate responses.
