Is it possible to have 2 separate drupal 7 installs accessing the same
database and can the second install be set to have access to certain
content fields only but have no data entry permissions?
I ran into a problem some time ago where if modules like workbench and
others were not installed the fresh install crashed. Workbench is a
pain for us.
Reasons I'm asking are:
-- that I need to set up a newsletter creation and mail out system that
takes calendar events and dates, locations of events,, quotations, book
references and some text content to be used in a view in the second
installation to out put to the newsletter.
I have tried for days to get simplenews and newsletter working in a copy
of the original system but there are a huge number of modules in there
and something is causing the WSOD default to the Stark theme in both
<Create new content type> and configurations for simplenews.
I did a fresh install of d7.19 on my home system and installed required
modules for a trial. I find that simplenews and the email systems work
well as expected.
I'm reluctant to do anything in the original working/live system - I
reckon some modules don't play nice with others but have no way of knowing.
I would appreciate help on how best to go about this please
thank you in advance
Roger
