phpbb2 & Coppermine bridged perfect...but

[mxguy250]

This is kinds of a dumb question,  im new to the whole coppermine and phpbb2 world...  I got everything installed right on my site.

www.northeastmx.com/forums/
www.northeastmx.com/gallery/

I was able to bridge the installation clean, and upgrade my templates to match..... 

Now,  my big question of the hour...  how to a change the links in coppermine, and phpbb2 to link back and forth.   I want to set my url to the forums, and have a link over to the photo galllery.   I would also like to have a block (mod)  to maybe see random photos above the "whos on line" .....

Any help would me great,  im very new to PHP and PHPBB2 along with coppermine......  go easy on me  ;-)

Thanks
Dave

has been asked very often already, please search the forum before posting your question next time: edit themes/yourtheme/theme.php, find

Code Select Expand

// HTML template for main menu
$template_main_menu = <<<EOT
                <span class="topmenu">and add a link to your forum there in a new line beneath it (i.e. <a href="/forums/" title="go to the forum">Forum</a> ::). To find out how to add a link to phpBB you better ask this question on the phpBB support board (although I'm sure this has been asked and answered several times as well), although I don't think it's different from the way it is done in coppermine: you'll have to edit your phpBB theme, find the section where all the other navigation items are and add some plain html link to it.

Thanks for the reply !  It helped me get to the right place....  I was able to update my phpbb2 fine.
www.northeastmx.com/forums/  ( I now have a fancy gallery link ) 

I pulled up the code as you stated above in the theme.php  and made the following changes

Code Select Expand

// HTML template for main menu
$template_main_menu = <<<EOT
                <span class="topmenu">
<!-- BEGIN album_list -->
                        <a href="{ALB_LIST_TGT}" title="{ALB_LIST_TITLE}">{ALB_LIST_LNK}</a> &nbsp;

                        <a href="{SEARCH_TGT}">{SEARCH_LNK}</a>
                </span>
I also tried removing the member list, but that didnt work either.

Let me know where i went wrong.....  

Thanks in advance for any help.

the memberlist link is a coppermine config option...
