[OBSOLETE] How to Integrate Coppermine with SMF

[mrandall131]

Everything has been working flawlessly.  One question about the bridge though.  Is it possible to get their used upload space?

[Pink Bee]

In /include/init.inc.php, find:

Code Select Expand

// define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'smf');

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'smf');

In /bridge/smf.inc.php, find:

Code Select Expand

$path = '../smf';

Replace /smf with the directory you have your SMF forum installed in.  If SMF is installed in your root directory, remove smf leaving you with $path = '../';.

I find neither of these codes...
I'm using CPG 1.4.3

CPG 1.4.3 has in build Bridge Manager, got to Admin Tools scroll down you'll see than follow the step by step instructions.

Where's the Admin Tools?

Login into CPG as Admin you'll see, it's part of administration menu

I have a SMF forum 1.0.6 and a CPG 1.4.3

after a successful install I got this error when I'm trying to load my forum:

Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.


But the error, I'm assure it's not of the server, because I have 2 forums running on the same server, first I got the error en 1 and the other works fine, and after doing the same installation in the other one i kill my 2 forums with the same error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: db_query() in /home/content/c/h/i/chilehub/html/galeria/include/init.inc.php on line 272



I dunno what to do, I hope you can help me to figure out what to do

init.inc.php is a Coppermine file, and Coppermine 1.4.3 does not have a function called db_query.  That function is only in the older 1.2.x and 1.3.x versions.  I don't think you are running 1.4.3.

Please be more specific: what exactly are you having trouble with?  Does SMF function correctly?  Does Coppermine function correctly?  Do they function correctly after bridging the two together?  Bridging Coppermine and SMF will in no way make SMF stop working.

Prolin... el foro smf y coppermine los tienes instalado en la misma base de datos o en distintas?
tienes el foro smf funcionando... pero el coppermine lo lograste hacer funcionar independiente?

Hey guys just to let you know... i have it working in RC2... i havent finished it yet as i still have the buttons to remove from the gallery and sort out the correct placement of the gallery button in my template (help on this would be good)

I would say to the others that are having probs go back... re-read and try again... it took me 5 attempts looking at the same info

www.minidirectory.co.uk/forum then click on the miss placed gallery button lol

EDIT: 20 mins later with a dif thread... fixed my button prob... you guys are ace... just the gallery left to remove buttons...

EDIT AGAIN After searching through the boards there is a plug-in for the remove buttons!

So its all working now... just time to add the photos...

Does anybody ever say thanks round here? well thank you guys couldnt have done it without you


PS i am a novice and i dont know any HTML or PHP..

just download the zip... extract it then up load to your coppermine "plug in folder" and away you go!

oh dont forget you may need to go in to your "config" on coppermine to activate this.

wow... never thought i would give out advice

cor blimey that was hard work - got there in the end though.

SMF 1.1 RC2 & Coppermine 1.4.4 & Tinyportal 0.8.6

Took me most of the weekend 

[trenchteam]

Timmyo, the gallery looks okay.  Just not much for the scrolling iframe thing.

same here - if I could find a way of having it full/fixed height I'd do it . . .

putting 100% as height means nothing shows up at all - anyone got any ideas ?

Instructions for getting SMF 1.1 RC2 + Coppermine 1.4.4 + Tinyportal working together using the default SMF theme, the SMF Coppermine theme and Tinyportal 0.8.6 with the gallery appearing in a frame.

ok I just experimented with pixel height sizes for the iframe - 2280 did the trick

yes, javascript can control the iframe. and if you enter subs.php you can add gallery to the nav.

check out my site, all working together seamlessly. more info at coppermine:

Hello

I have smf 1.1 rc2 and coppermine 1.4.2

today I have just run the coppermine bridge wizard and linked CPG to Smf forum.  I selected the option to use post counts.
In CPG 'groups' I can see all my smf groups and change their options.

However, in smf forum I see nothing at all to do with the gallery!
no gallery button - how to do I create a new button for 1.1 rc2?
no galley options
no way to access or view gallery at all

does anyone know what is going on and how to fix it?

I looked in forum permissions but there is nothing in there, or features and options or current theme.  In forum permissions screen, there are some options that have radio buttons but dont show any text??? I dont know if they are related to the gallery but I switched them all on anyway and it made no difference.

Also I read above that the forum and the gallery should share the same database???  Can someone tell me how to do that too?

a step by step would be good.

Its very frustrating that the 'bridge' wizard ran smoothly but I cant see any evidence of the gallery in the forum, so no one could access it anyway.

Help!
