Having a bit of a problem.
In the 'groups' link, when I change some settings, and then click 'Apply Modifications' the settings I changed, don't change.
I have my gallery bridged with SMF. When I originally installed the gallery, I had it use it's own database. But then I changed it to use my forum's database. I exported the tables from the old database via phpMyAdmin, then imported them into the one my forum is using.
I don't know if through the process of doing this screwed something up?
Thanks for any help.
Post a link to your gallery for a start. In fact, do as suggested in "Sticky thread: When requesting bridge support - mandatory! (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24032.0)" and "Documentation: Bridging support (http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#integrating_support_start)"
Oh, my apologies..

Relative path to your BBS's config file: /home/uowm/public_html/forums/settings.php
That's not a relative path, but an absolute one. Relative path would be something like
../forums/ depending on your domain setup - I guess your subdomains are set up to be sub-folders within the webroot, i.e. your gallery is located at /home/uowm/public_html/gallery/
Right.
So is there a way to make it work with the way I have it setup?
Did you read my reply? I told you that the relative path would be ../forums/. As suggested, this depends on your sub-domain setup. If you want answers, you'll have to provide more information. In your case, post the absolute path of your gallery.
Absolute path to Gallery: /home/uowm/public_html/gallery/
Absolute path to Forum: /home/uowm/public_html/forums/
If I understand relative paths correctly, then there's no way to put in a relative path because one path isn't above the other.
Unless by putting ../forums/ as the relative path, that will 'act' like the absolute path? Sort of..
So like, I have my web root. In a directory above my root is my gallery, then in another my forum. By putting '../forums/' it will go back to the root directory, then up to my forum? If that makes sense..
Re-run the bridge manager, then use ../forums/ as relative path and see how it goes.
Alright, I have done so. However, it's still not working.
What exactly is not working? I was able to log in fine. Going back to your gallery I'm logged in (see screenshot).
Yes, that's all working. The groups permission page, which would be at this link: http://gallery.unhealthyobsession.net/groupmgr.php I edit the settings, but when I go to save it, it doesn't save.
Post a screenshot please (attach it to your posting using "additional options" when composing your message).
Well, there's not much to show. But here they are anyways (sorry for them being so big, but if I downsized them, it was too blurry)
Image 1: That's the setting before I change/save it
Image 2: I change all three settings.
I then press save, and then
Image 3: It doesn't save.
By the way, That was for the 'Administrators' user group.
PM me an admin account please.
Well, that brings me to a second question. How do I make users Admins? It's not done through the forum, is it?
Never mind, I just unbridged the gallery and forum and added a user.
It didn't work. When I rebridged it, it set it back.. But I have a solution. I think..
That's nonsense: just add a user to the administrator group in the BBS app you bridge with. Users created with Coppermine in standalone mode (unbridged) are lost when re-enabling bridging.
Alright. Well, everything seems to be working fine now. Had a few problems when uploading pictures, but I just had to CHMOD the album folders to 777. Other than that, everything seems to be just fine.
Did you fix it?
I didn't do anything to fix it - I only had the time to take a look right now. As you wrote, everything works as expected - the changes on the groups page sticks. Marking thread as "fixed".
