Sorry about the post in the priviously solved post.
I just set up coppermine with phpbb 2.018 or better(i have phpBB ver 2.0.21) and i notice that it deleted all my previous member on my coppermine gallery. Is there a way to get them back? Their albums and such are still there but when you click on member list it just shows me. Do I have to contact them and tell them to register in the phpbb forum with the identical username and password?

P.S. the logging into the forum logs me into my gallery so that is working properly.

I will continue to tinker with it until i get some help
Thanks in advance

Users from coppermine are not available when you bridge, it only reads users from your forum. If you want to convert your users you need to do so manually by editing the database. Search the board for previous discussions on this.

What should i search for using search on these forums? Also has anyone else had to do this and is willing to help out?

ok, i logged into phpmyadmin and looked into _copp1 -> cgp_users i had 6 users, it labled them as
        user_profile1     varchar(255)         
   user_profile2    varchar(255)
   user_profile3    varchar(255)
   user_profile4    varchar(255)
   user_profile5    varchar(255)
   user_profile6    text    latin1_swedish_ci
can i copy those over to phpbb users area in phpmyadmin? The phpbb_users looks nothing like coppermines, still would having them re register in the forum using the exact some username and password case sensitive to the first would that allow them to regain control of their albums etc...

I really have no knowledge in the php field other that changing a few things in the code when i use a step by step guide.

I'm currently trying to manually add the users i have no real idea what im doing but i guess i'll guess and see if sh*t works.
Can anyone help, on how to add users and their password from cpg to phpbb
