Bridged to SMF 2.0.17
CPG: 1.6.09
http://www.thefantasiesattic.net/attic/cpg/

I found that with this update it no longer behaves correctly if the DB is not in the forums DB, I downloaded the DB then uploaded the contents to the forum's DB but if I remove the original separate DB for the gallery then it won't appear.

How do I get the gallery to work correctly again? It works but anything that has to do with the bridged database then  I get a database error.

What do I need to do?

If you moved the DB to the same as the forum then you need to adjust a few things accordingly. First your include.config.inc.PHP has to be edited to point to the correct DB. Then run update.PHP and see if that fixes your errors. Disable bridging before you do any of this then re-apply the bridge once you have confirmed CPG is working correctly.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

I thought about the bridge part and tried to get in there and the silly thing won't let me, I even followed the instructions to getting into bridge and that won't work. I will try again and hope it behaves otherwise I might need to reinstall it fresh...yuck and this shows you how lazy I can be...LOL
