Plugins

Starting from cpg1.4.x, coppermine comes with a plugin API that enables plugin authors to modify coppermine features without hacking the core code, making upgrading easier, as modifications don't have to be re-applied every time you upgrade your coppermine version. It's recommended to use plugins instead of code modifications that require hacking the core code.

This page is meant to provide an overview about the existing plugins.

Attention! As this overview isn't updated frequently, it's recommended to have a look at the appropriate plugin contributions boards for cpg1.4.x and cpg1.5.x if you haven't found your desired plugin.

Visit the plugin announcement thread by clicking on the plugin name. Download the plugin by clicking on the download icon () next to the plugin name. Click on the author name to see the plugin author's profile. Do not send unrequested private messages or emails to the plugin authors unless you have explicit permission from them! Visit the announcement thread for a particular plugin if you need support or to check if a newer version of the plugin is available.

Read up the documentation that comes with coppermine for details, e.g. how to install a plugin.

With most plugins comes a readme file that explains important details about the plugin - before asking for individual help, please make sure that you have read the plugin's readme file and corresponding announcement thread.
