Relative path to your BBS, seen from your Coppermine folder (e.g. "../forum/" if your BBS is at http://www.yourdomain.tld/forum/ and Coppermine at http://www.yourdomain.tld/gallery/)
Okay I am obviously confused with this, I want to bring into the side tab where people can click to go to a forum that I set up with simple machines, but I can't seem to figure this one out. Any help would be greatly appreciated, can't seem to understand this Thanks in advance Angelscrapper

Bridging is not related to a visual integration, but only logical integration (in terms of user management and authentification). Therefor, your question that related to the relative path simply doesn't apply. It doesn't matter where exactly (in which folder) you install and your BBS for bridging to work. It's advisable to not install coppermine into a sub-folder of your forum, but into a folder within your webroot. Once you have accomplished this, you can make up your mind on the visual integration. There is a nice mod made by snork that will wrap coppermine into the navigation of your forum.
If you need help to figure out the bridging issue (i.e. what you need to enter for the relative path), then do as suggested in the sticky thread "When requesting bridge support - mandatory!" on this very board. If you already have accomplished bridging, then review snork's mod "[How To] Coppermine within SMF" or create a custom coppermine theme that matches the overall layout of your site. Add a link to your forum's navigation that points to your gallery and vice versa.
