        Hi all.

        When you make a second WP install on a subdomain using 1 database it creates WP tables unique to that install which makes sense but it also creates the user tables.

        What if they share the same users?

        Do you sync the user tables or change the config files to use one set of tables as the primary?

          WP Remote Users Sync or Uncanny Automator are both plugins that can handle that.

          https://automatorplugin.com/

          If you are using WP Fusion, you can also use that to sync users, though you’d have to keep the password in plaintext in your CRM in that case.
