    Yes, so long as you use a prefix like WP_ or something to make sure there isn’t any overlap with phpBB ??

    Don’t they all have like wp_ in front of them?

    If they don’t, have can i create/use a prefix?

    They should, but you can specify when you install. Just make sure to use one ??

    Can i spesify a prefix or do you mean database? Can i spesify that in the config-file?

    So, nothing should go wrong if i connect it to the database, even though i don’t make a prefix?

    You can specify a prefix (and a database, actually).

    Correct.
