Coppermine Integration... (Page 1 of 4)

if i'm not mistaken coppermine is also a stand alone so you could just add a link to the nav bar up top. but i can see the agrivation of users who need to register for both.

After talking to the folks at Coppermine, it appears that integration is not too difficult.  Simply modifying the phpBB 'bridge' file with punBB equivalents should do the trick.  I'm going to make an attempt at it but I may need some assistance along the way from those of you more familiar with phpBB.

a related question...

The coppermine folks insist that subdomains can't share cookies making forum and gallery integration impossible if you're setup like this: gallery.anysite.com and forum.anysite.com.

Is this correct?  I noticed that the cookie set by this forum has a domain of .punbb.org - does this mean that any subdomain of punbb.org can access the cookie?

EDIT:  I just checked the cookie my forum sets...  the domain for the cookie is forum.mysite.com - can I change it to just mysite.com?  Will that help?

Well, that solves that wee problem, thanks Rickard!

Anyone have any helpful hints on where to start on this 'bridge' file?  Perhaps the folks who wrote the phpbb conversion?

Any help would be appreciated.

Yay, Nibbler pwns

/me annoys Nibbler on IRC

now the only thing left is for someone to be not as lazy as me and write it so its based on the css and stuff(matching layout) thats in punbb

A question about punBB and CPG

Could you be able nibbler (a lot of stuff I know) to create a CPG > Pun converter to put all user in a same data base users ?

With this :
- if the pseudo is the same = same account
- if the pseudo is different = consider it as a new user in Pun ...

But thanx for your bridge (I test it today)

hey folks...i am contemplating an image gallery for my forum
seemed coppermine would be good choice, also seeing they/you provide a bridge for login stuff, nice.

but - i would apreciate your comments on...others' comments on e.g. security issues.
read these: http://www.hotscripts.com/review/26670.html

sounds very bad, no?

Oh, and passwords are stored in the cookie as md5 hashes not as plain text - that post on hotscripts is simply wrong.

I got around to making a cpg->punbb converter, available as a punbb1.2 plugin at the coppermine boards, here.

Nibbler(cpg), are you going to release a bridge for punbb1.2 + cpg 1.3? (This is what I'm using by now)
If not..., when will be CPG 1.4 released? Thanks!

Wow! Thanks... but I've a problem:

Is this error produced because I added more groups on my punbb1.2 ??
