Forum Online / State of Gallery should be the same?

[LGLDSR]

Greetings,

When you bridge Coppermine with a Forum (such as MyBB) should not the Gallery go online and offline in synch with the Forum? That is to say, if the Forum is closed so is the Gallery, and if the Forum is open so is the Gallery.

Secondly, I noticed that the option to send a random password states "Function disabled when using BB integration". Yet the Users are receiving a randomly generated password sent to them. Is this a function of Coppermine when integrated, or the Forum software?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Lyman

No - Coppermine does not have the 'right' to disable your forum and there is no code to detect your forum being set offline. They act independently of each other.

The forum is doing this.

Pleae keep to 1 question per thread and post in the correct section of the forum in future.
