Custom homepage integrating aspects of CPG and phpbb

[nick13584]

Hi there,

I am wanted to create a website that integrates Coppermine with phpbb3. I think i will be ok with the bringing system, however my query relates to a custom homepage.

What i wanted in the homepage was a box with a description of that the site is, the box along the top of the page with most recent pictures in, a box at the bottom of the page with the most recent forum posts

i was wondering if there was a way that i could integrate aspects of coppermine (recent photo posts) with aspects of phpbb3 (recent forum posts) for my home page.

thanks in advance for the help

Bridging deals with the logical aspect of integrating Coppermine with another application in terms of user management and user autnetification. It does not deal with visual integration. What you're up to is called "content syndication" i.e. displaying content taken from coppermine on non-coppermine-driven pages. This requires editing the code of the other third-party application with which we're not familiar with. You may try one of the mods on the mod board "content syndication" (we recommend using cpmFetch), however you need to understand how that other application works and how to add custom (PHP-driven) code there - that's something we can't help you with.
