I would like to know where to begin on how to intragate a photo album in to a forum to where each individual has there own gallery, maybe even subcatagories to where the photos that have there own catagory. Can someone point me in the right direction on where to begin.
Thanks in advance
urm, well: what do you have at the moment? Coppermine has integration of user management with some popular bbs right now. This means: when set up correctly, all your forum users can have their own private albums.

ph BB 2.0.6 I dont have a gallery setup yet but I would like to know where to start at. I hope you know what I am getting at
[list=1]
- install coppermine (standalone)
- enable integration as pointed out in the readme/documentation that comes with coppermine
- correct the redirect problems that currently exist between cpg and phpbb as discussed in http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=2972

Coppermine has bridging with phpbb2, so all you need to do is download the latest version of coppermine. Then get it up and running as standalone first, to check it is working correctly, then follow the bridging instructions.
Use the same database for your gallery, as you have for the forum.
There are also several threads here for when people have problems with the bridging.
Anyway, get the gallery up and running first, then come back with any questions.
So basically everything that was unzipped from the file I downloaded gets loaded onto my web server. :oops:
correct, i use cpg with phpbb, it was very easy to install and get working. one you have the standalone working you need to edit the phpbb bridge file

I got it all downloaded What do I do to see if it is intergrated properly when I punch in the address to access it I get these error messages
Warning: main(include/config.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/coralfor/public_html/coppermine/include/init.inc.php on line 135
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'include/config.inc.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/coralfor/public_html/coppermine/include/init.inc.php on line 135
read the docs that come with coppermine: you'll have to run install.php first...

when I use this http://your_server/coppermine_dir/install.php my internet says there has been a problem and sorry for the inconvenince. What is up with that.
I changed my permissions on my albums to 777 again but now when I enter http://coralforum,com/coppermine_dir/install.php I get a blank screen.
I got it on my own WOW I am impressed all I had to do was to take out the _dir after coppermine and it worked
http://your_server/coppermine_dir/install.php is just an example. You are intended to replace your_server with your actual server and coppermine_dir with your actual coppermine directory.
when I try to upload a pic it tells me "Sorry there is no album where you are allowed to upload pictures"
Also when I try to login as a registered user it dosnt log me in . I type my name then click ok then it says welcome (Name) then I click ok. Then on the next screen it brings me to the main page but I am not logged in. I hope you understand what I am getting at.
