Title: Gallery + phpBB merging userbase after installation?
Post by: Valiant on December 16, 2003, 11:34:14 PM
Heylo,
Ok let me try and explain this properly lol. Basically I have a standalone phpBB and a standalone Gallery 1.2 both are currently used by members and somewhat populated, would it be possible to merge the two userbases now or is it too late and something I should've done at installation?

if you integrate cpg with your bbs you'll lose all user registrations in cpg, as it'll use phpBB's from that point on. At the moment there's no converter, you'd have to re-register the overhead users manually. How many are there?

Not many, about 29 in phpBB and only 7 in the gallery.

I tried to integrate the two when I first installed them but when I clicked login in the gallery to took me back to the phpBB login and then when you click on the gallery link again it would take you back to the phpBB login again and basically stuck in an endless loop.

Any ideas?

those 7 can be easily registered in phpBB manually, way to go!

login/-out issue with phpbb has been solved a while ago: read http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=1841

thanks for the notion, I appreciate that - please consider supporting some local charity instead, or register at http://sourceforge.net/ and make a donation to support them (paypal system).
