I have a restriction of 15 databases with my 1&1 hosting account, I started to look around for a new host but didn’t really fancy moving all my domains as it would be a bit of a nightmare, so this is the solution.

In your wp-config.php file you can change the prefix of the tables that are created, the default is ‘wp_’ so you can change this to anything else, for example ‘ps_’ or ’sq_’, this will enable multiple installs of wordpress on one database.

wp-config
