This may be a dumb question, but does anyone know if you can put multiple WordPress blogs on the same domain in seperate directories?

Example would be yourdomain.com/blog and yourdomain.com/membersblog

One would be just a normal access blog and the other would be for paid members.
I am hoping this is a yes and a very simple thing, but just checking first.

Thanks,

Chad

Don't worry Chad, no such thing as dumb questions around here

Simple Answer: Yes, you just need to setup a different database for your second (or third etc...) installation

Ok, cool.

Thanks to both of you. I was assuming it was doable and fairly simple, but you never know. I had never tried it and just did not want any unknown trouble.

  You can also do it with simplescripts.
  
  You can do them as subdomains too if you want.
  
  Just like wordpress.com - everything is a subdomain
  
  And if you want to go really crazy you can do them with the / (slash) and you can do them as wordpress MU (multi-user)
  
  Just to clarify or confuse you even more
  
  Thanks
