I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and phpBB3:
User IDs are jumbled after trying to unbridge a ppBB2 forum and trying to bridge a brand new phpBB3 install.
I understand the documentation warned me, but my macho-ism would have been crushed if I didn't try....
I've searched and search and have not yet found a clear, detailed how-to to fix this problem and would really love something in detail.
Thanks for your time and help...

You only have 34 users in your forum so you need to work out what UID goes with what user and edit your forums usertable with phpmyadmin. As I do not know how the usertable is arranged in phpBB I cannot give you more details. It should be quite easy to work out though.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
