    Default Can't edit Lightbox settings in Admin panel

    Hi,

    I have come across a very bizarre problem.

    My DB and website work perfectly and my DB tables have the prefix of the default 'zen_'

    However, i am trying to change this to 'zen_BM_'

    To do this i have used CoffeeCup HTML editor to do the following:
    1) Exported all of the SQL for the tables
    2) Done a find and replace to update 'zen_' to 'zen_BM_'
    3) Import SQL into the database so i end up with 2 sets of data and tables... one with the prefix 'zen_' and the other 'zen_BM_'

    The Website front end works fine when i update both of the configure.php files:

    define('DB_PREFIX', 'zen_');

    TO

    define('DB_PREFIX', 'zen_BM_');

    HOWEVER, when i log into the 'Admin' panel a problem arises.

    When Trying to edit the 'Zen Lightbox' setting in the 'Configuration' menu, the Info panel to the right of the screen disappears.
    Meaning i can't update the settings!??!!?

    However when i revert back to the 'zen_' database everything is ok.

    I'm baffled by this, as the 2 sites are a ############## of each other, so don't know where to start looking for a possible solution.

    I hope someone has come across a similar scenario before, or is able to advise a possible solution, as i am looking to run several sets of data from the 1 database.

    Many thanks

    Andy

    p.s. if screenshots will help to visualise the problem, i can add some later.

    I'm not really sure what you're trying to acheive here, but a simpler solution might just be to create a copy of your database and re-name it?
