Multiple Xoops Sites with one Member Database

Here's something I'd like to be able to do, so any advice would be appreciated. I have my doubts it can be done, but worth asking about anyway.

I want to have different installations of XOOPS on a domain, with each being in its own subdomain. Each installation would have totally independent contents EXCEPT members. I would like to have one central site where the user logs in and from there is automatically logged in to the subdomains.

EXAMPLE:

Each of the below would have a different, independent, installation of Xoops.

(A) www.mydomain.com - member login found here.

(B) store.mydomain.com - online storefront. member groups might include "Retailers", "Distributors", "Other".

(C) private.mydomain.com - private are for users of registered products. Member groups might include "Moderators", "Registered Users".

(D) freestuff.mydomain.com - another area where free downloads and discussion can take place.

So, a sample user might be "Joe Smith". Joe would be a member of the "Other" store member group and maybe a "Moderator" in the private area. Joe would log into XOOPS from domain (A) but would not need to log in to any of the subdomains.

Can something like this be done?

Thanks!

IS JUST AN EXPERIMENTAL HACK,
IT IS NOT THE IDEAL WAY TO DO A "XOOPS MULTISITE".

MORE ABOUT IT HERE:
https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=16700&forum=14





database.php
function prefix($tablename='') {
if ( $tablename == '' ) {
return $this->prefix;
}
elseif ( $tablename == 'users' ) {
return 'same_users';
}
elseif ( $tablename == 'groups_users_link' ) {
return 'same_groups_users_link';
}
elseif ( $tablename == 'priv_msgs' ) {
return 'same_priv_msgs';
}
elseif ( $tablename == 'session' ) {
return 'same_session';
}
else {
return $this->prefix .'_'. $tablename;
}
}




to use the same files with diferent sites/subdomains, just replace the mainfile.php for:
<?php
if (!(isset($subdominio))) {
$subdominio = $HTTP_HOST;
$subdominio = str_replace("www.","",$subdominio); 
$subdominio = str_replace(".com","",$subdominio); 
$subdominio = str_replace(".net","",$subdominio); 
$subdominio = str_replace(".org","",$subdominio);
} 

if (!(empty($subdominio))) {
include($subdominio."mainfile.php");
}
?>
