My son and I are trying to get the bridging to work using coppermine with his bbs
Forum URL is http://geneticgfx.com/forums
Coppermine is http://genteticgfx.com/geneticgallery

So what is the relative path to BBS config?

../forums/  or
../geneticgallery

Neither one is working, please help

Just for future reference regarding this. A relative path is the path from the server root to the config file for the app that you are bridging.

So for example on a linux server if your coppermine gallery is located at yoursite.com/gallery and your app is in your root you could use /home/xxxxx/public_html/

where xxxxx = your domain

Alternatively you can use traversals to back out - so again if your gallery was located at yoursite.com/gallery and your app was in the root you could use

../

This tells the wizard to back down one directory from the coppermine root located at /gallery

two directories down = ../../
three = ../../../
etc.
