The answer is....both yes and no.

IP.Content includes a custom index.php that can be used outside of your forums to load it. This lets you run IP.Content at domain.com and the forums at domain.com/forums (or forums.domain.com). In theory, you could technically run this custom index.php from domainx.com while the forums are at domainy.com, however the two domains would need to be pointed to the same server and domainx.com would need to be able to include and read/write files at domainy.com (the special index.php is not completely stand alone - it still needs to load the IP.Board framework files). This would require special permission setup on the hosting side.

As you noted, you would not be able to login to domainx.com. IP.Board only has one configuration option for the cookie domain, so it would set cookies for domainy.com always. This would severely limit the capabilities of IP.Content running at domainx.com (since no one would ever be able to login to it).

If we are talking about subdomains (domain.com and forums.domain.com) that should work fine. Some AJAX functionality would not work from IP.Content (because of cross-domain javascript restrictions), however work arounds for that have been added to IP.Content 2.3.0 (currently in alpha stages).

I believe only with two installations and use the REST API to connect the two.

I think it's just go in REST API as in the image, see:

after creating new, the following options will appear:

 

I hope it helps you.
