[tjiepie]

Yes  it's the gallery root

The gallery folder are in www.mypage.be/bl/

bl stay for the gallery.

I get these code on the index page:

What do you mean by index page? What page are you trying to access the guestbook from?

What do you mean by index page? What page are you trying to access the guestbook from?

mysite.be/bl/guestobook 

[tjiepie]

sorry i mean:
mysite.be/bl/guestbook/

Post real links instead of dummy placeholders.

[Ludo]

mysite.be/bl/guestbook/ 

Now you can access guestbook from /guestbook.php (i.e. http://www.yourcpg.tld/guestbook.php)

Integration v. 1.0.3 released
Now you can have your guestbook act like a contact form, by placing in your sys or sub menu a "Contact us" link to

Code Select Expand

/guestbook.php?file=addentry&gb_private=1
"Private message" flag in the "add entry" page will be automatically selected, so that message sent by user will appear only in admin panel "Private message" section and in your mailbox (if you have enabled private messages notification by email). A convenient header is displayed on top of the form (English and Italian only, other languages need adapting translation).

Heya,

I searched the board and found this thread and it is really, really helpful.
I just started to work with coppermine so I am quiet new to all this. I guess I miss a tiny piece to make it work like the demo that was posted in the first post of this thread. Maybe someone can tell me what I do wrong? I use the greenflower-template. I changed some colors and stuff but atm I have set it back to the original greenflower-template so the changes, that I made myself, are not the reason for my problem.

1. Link to my gallery:
http://www.yinadriel.de/gallery/

2. Link to the guestbook:
http://www.yinadriel.de/gallery/guestbook.php

You see that the sidebar and the footer vanished and I absolutely have no idea why. 
I am happy if someone answers or gives me a hint what I can try to solve this. Thank you.

Move /guestbook directory to your Coppermine root, as per installation instructions.

[Yina]

All my coppermine files are in Yinadriel.de/gallery  so gallery is my Coppermine root.

[Yina]

Argh, hit Enter by accident. So sorry for the double-post.

What I tried to type is that I have in gallery (coppermine root) the file guestbook.php and another directory named guestbook with all the files from the installation of the Advanced guestbook.

yinadriel.de/gallery/guesbook.php
yinadriel.de/gallery/guestbook/*.php

[Ludo]

Quite strange.
Did you edit /guestbook/admin/config.inc.php?

[Yina]

Yes, I edited that file.
Updated the info for the database, the base_url and the email only though.

[Ludo]

You shouldn't, as per installations instructions.
Restore the original from downloaded archive.

[Yina]

hmmm.. now you confuse me. 

In the guestbook/doc/readme.txt is written:

Installation:
1. Open the configuration file 'config.inc.php' with a text editor and set up your database settings.

That is what I have done.

Weird thing is that the advanced guestbook itself runs well. Like you can see if you try http://www.yinadriel.de/gallery/guestbook/
The problem is it just not works when it is in coppermine. http://www.yinadriel.de/gallery/guestbook.php

Maybe you have another hint for me what to look up?

[Ludo]

hmmm.. now you confuse me.  

In the guestbook/doc/readme.txt is written:

That is the original readme file for Advanced Guestbook standalone version.
Coppermine integration installation instructions are in the very first post of this thread and in readme file in main directory of attached archive.
Do as suggested in my previous post.

[Yina]

Ah, I see. I was not home yesterday and will try this evening, when I am home. 

[Yina]

I guess my mistake was one of my biggest "blonde moments" ever. 

It works perfectly now. Thanks so much, Ludo, for your time and patience. 
I am very happy with my guestbook in my coppermine now.

A couple of days I integrated the AGB into my coppermine website.
Working great but it has its limitations.
I like to use the spin off guestbook called Lazarus.
I has some nice additional features.

I tried installed Lazarus and upgraded it from AGB but I cannot get it to work.
Has someone tried to integrate the Lazarus Guestbook into coppermine?
I like to know how it is done.
