I habe read the sticky thread but it is actualy not of much use to me.

Iam Running a Dolphin 7 Community System (www.boonex.com) unfortunatly their own picture gallery sucks big time so iam using the good old coppermine.

Now to not have the usere re register on the gallery but still be able to post under their own name i was thinking to bridge the to programs.

To be honest i have no clue how to do it.

Maybe it would be easier to read teh exisitng user base from the MySQL but it is MD5 encoded.

Let me know what you need

Creating a custom bridge file.

Of course you can also use workaround like cloning the CMS user database to Coppermine, but it will lack of the feature that users are automatically logged in to Coppermine after they've logged in to the CMS.

Well cloning would be an obtion but the CMS uses a different encryption type then Coppermine theirfor will that most likly not work.

Dophin uses SALT Encryption while as far as i know coppermine is running MD5

Αndré

Of course Coppermine could be modified to use the same encryption, but I suggest to use/create a genuine bridge.

okay will try that but iam a newbie on this section of coding
