Does CPG 1.6 contain newest security update (from 1.5.46)?

[nl]

Hi there.
I have installed a 1.5.46 on a PHP 7 system, which currently is downgraded to an earlier release of PHP in order to run (.htaccess change).
I have to "upgrade" to PHP 7 soon, and would like to know if the mentioned CPG 1.6 (cpg_installer_stub.php) does contain the newest security release - or there is another way to install this release?
Looking forward to an answer for this - while I try installing a phpBB bridge.
Thank you!

Yes, all security updates applied to 1.5.x line are also applied to the 1.6.x line.

You have several ways to install 1.6 over 1.5:
You can get the latest release and manually place the files in your install.
You can use the upgrader to do the work for you when you are logged in as admin to your gallery.
You can use the installer stub to perform a standalone install .. either new or over an existing install.

If you want to try a different method for user synchronization between phpBB3 and CPG, you could try this:

For use with CPG 1.6 you'll need the updated plugin attached here.

Thanks a lot for your help :-)
Though .. I've just tried it over again - deleting everything and set up from start.
Last time, I had trouble with https vs http .. At least I think it was the issue.

Now, in the new setup, the following happens:
I go to https://mysite.com/cpg
Here I click on Login, which returns me to https://mysite.com/phpBB3
Where I do the login, and I will be returned to https://mysite.com/cpg .. but still not logged in 

Any quick solutions before I start all over again?
