CMS Made Simple Forums

If the other app, works with prefixes, that would be fine...

CMSMS works that way, making it possible to have multiple installs using the same database...

This is no problem. At a certain point (if your other application using the DB is very DB intensive) you may experience a slowdown. You can define a table prefix (there is one by default) - this way, all CMSMS Tables will have a unique name in your DB and you should be fine.

Additionally, you should check how much space is left in your DB when you are on a shared webhost.

Hope this helps

Usually an ISP should give you more than one database, unless it is free hosting, but that should work fine.
