Okay, this may sound crazy, but how do users get to the gallery once they've logged into phpbb? The install finally appears to have worked and it seemed okay so I updated it to work with phpbb and now I can't get to the gallery unless I manually change the url.
Thx
make sure to read http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=2972 - dealing with redirection back to coppermine once your users have logged in.
It's recommended that you edit your navigation in phpbb as well to show a link to your coppermine install.
