Changing subsite to use the shared database 12 Years, 10 Months ago

Hi,
Here's the situation:
We've installed multsites and Fabrik on our main master site, then created a subsite which uses its own database. On the subsite, we inherited the Fabrik component, which allows someone to register to the subsite, but in hindsight we should have used the same database as the master site.
Is it too late to change the configuration so that it shares the database with the master site, as that would save us from having to recreate the Fabrik form in the master database. If yes, what's the easiest way to do it?
Thanks very much in advance.
Victoria.
ps.
The version we're using is 1.2.72

When you have a look in the list of extension, you can see that Fabrik is not an extension that is defined for the sharing.
If you want that we review again "fabrik" to see if it could be shared, please send us the extension in the attachement of an email.
See the "contact us" for the email.
When an extension can be shared, in this case, you have to see in its sharing definitino (with the JMS template rule menu), if the extension also require to share the users or not.
If it is also required to share the user, you must first check that your users are already shared between the website.
If NOT, then you have to check if both website have exactly the same users with the same ID.
Normally, once a slave site is created and that the users are not shared, there is no possibility to convert the slave site with shared users.
If you want do that after that the slave site is created, the only way is to drop the MySQL tables present in the slaves site and that should be shared to rebuiild the with sharing. You can only do that manually.
