what should I install first?

[snecz]

Hello everybody. I'm new here.
So far on my web I want photo gallery (obviously coppermine) and a forum (i think about smf or phpbb2).
What should I install first?
Which forum is well integrated?
thanks

It doesn't matter which one you install first.

We're pretty partial to SMF here, considering that's what we're running.

As Thu suggested, the install order doesn't matter. Just make sure both apps run fine standalone before trying to bridge them.

Thanks.
But what about the forum? SMF? phpbb2? Which one would you recommend?

[Joachim Müller]

As Thu suggested: we recommend SMF. Should be pretty obvious, since we're running SMF ourselves.

Thanks a lot!
So coppermine goes first.
