Title: Downloading the bridge to phpBB
Post by: april on January 18, 2005, 11:01:07 PM
I know this may be silly and I'm probably blind, but where do I download the bridge from Coppermine (latest version) to phpBB 2.0.10.
Thanks!!!

You should upgrade to phpbb 2.0.11. Earlier versions have security vulnerabilities.

One question: I already have phpBB on my site. When I register the admin account on Coppermine:
a. can I select the same, existing admin account used with phpBB (Coppermine uses an existing account)? -or-
b. do I enter the same username/password, so that bridging will merge the two into one (Coppermine creates a second account)?

Sorry for the dumb question...

enable bridging and all user management from coppermine will be gone - only users that exist in your phpbb database will be there. That's the point of integration. Once you enabled bridging, you won't be able to create coppermine users or coppermine admins - you will be sent to phpbb's user management for this purpose.
How is your question related to this thread (Downloading of a bridge file)? I think it isn't at all - please don't try to hijack other's thread by posting unrelated questions! >:(

april, read carefully:
1. upgrade to phpBB 2.0.11
2. the bridge is included with the default cpg download!

That's correct, but CapriSkye and TranzNDance already pointed this out. There's little point in re-stating this. I guess you were trying to make up for your hijacking attempt and tried to be helpfull, but I guess april won't read your answer anyway: she posted a while back and just didn't care to resolve the thread herself (which would have been a nice gesture).
