hiya all, i just realized this feature was available (durr lol), i decided to go try it, unfortunatly, when i do it, the gallery will work fine and all, then when u click on the forums, it shows a distorted dead version of the forums, and 1 time, i got it to work, it would show a error upon login, and block you out totally, including via the gallery.

now im curious am i going to have to completly remove the phpbb, and fresh install it untouched, then bridge it? or what...? i tryed few times and yes, my "values" put in are correct to a dot :)

ty again.

small note, i did not follow "protocol" as i cannot give out the url's directly here, as both are under construction, and not open to public, and their are a handful of users out to find these pages, and COULD trace them to here, and find them hehe :P so i have to be over-paranoid.

Bridging does not affect your forum - if it does then you did it wrong. You can disable the bridge by going back to bridgemgr.php and entering your original Coppermine admin details.

yes sir, i understand the failsafe (thank god you guys added it hehe), so it's not the forum affecting it... maybe the custom theme on the forums could be?

Not possible. Coppermine loads the config.php from the forum and then accesses its database. That's all the interaction there is, themes are not involved.

/phpBB2/index.php/login.php?redirect=../../cpg1412/ is what u get via login from the gallery, then it takes you to a red-link-pic, no themed forum.... haha, i think im doing some wrong here? :P

Yeah, you should not have index.php at the end of your 'Forum URL' in the bridge manager.

Full URL of your BBS app (including the leading http:// bit, e.g. http://www.yourdomain.tld/forum)

I can see no reason for paranoia. Security by obscurity is nonsense. Do as suggested in the sticky thread on this board.
