Integration with phpBB and more suggestions
« on: September 23, 2003, 02:48:36 pm »

Hi,

I would really like to see coppermine finally being integrated with phpBB.
Two great scripts working together would make a website more attractive.

How about when user comments on a picture-it automatically creates a thread in "designated image gallery" forum at phpBB(if installed) and any more comments in that pictures album should be moved to that thread...???

Little things which should be part of the script:

-User stats: how many viewing the gallery, how many registered, how many guests viewing the gallery. Sort of like "who is online" section.
-Implement any robot register floor control like phpnuke.
-Alow view of user IP.
-When Admins upload pictures through browser alow an option to have their NAME displayed or not...

Thats all i can think of right now... thanks. :)

afaik Jack is working on an ip logging/ban mod (that'll probably go into the release once it's done). I wanted to add this little something: in some countries (e.g. Germany) it's illegal to show the ip # to everybody, and I think I shouldn't be, so this'll remain an admin feature.

Also,

Create a seperate FOLDER for each album in the gallery. Currently all pictures uploaded by the "users" end up in "userpics" folder and when you have a lots of pictures the folder just never opens on FTP or is very slow when you edit the pics through the browser...

thanks

you shouldn't upload into /albums/userpics by ftp - only the http uploads go into /userpics! Create your own structure within /albums and leave /albums/userpics alone. Different albums inside /userpics have been requested and may be included in a future version...

as far as phpBB integration goes... I've got one running on a Linux box and one running on a Windows box... so I'd be happy to when necessary (and set up testing areas with FTP access for those devs working on it.)

Thanks, that's one less forum I have to worry about learning  :D

Do you have the integration bridge already running, or not?

I got some of it working... but it's riddled with bugs and dead ends.  Mostly all I saw was half of the admin for CPG "disabled" (meaning errors out) once I did the mod for the phpBB bridge.

Some of it works, some doesn't...

:?  Oh dear .. I had assumed that the phpbb one would be more-or-less working correctly - considering that that is the board that Greg set up on his site.

Seems I 'leap-frogged' most of the included ones when I forst did the yabbse one then  :oops:

Looks like I've got some work to do. It will probably be easier if I install phpbb here for dev work .. thanks for the offer though.

I know... but when USERS(who do not have FTP access) upload those pictures go straight to "userpic" folder and when you have alots of users uploading a lots of pics that folder is bound to fill up... i wish there was a way to leave it alone and each album when created also creates its own directory so any pics going to that album end up in that directory created for it-off course automatically.

thanks

Even though the support board at chezgreg.net was phpBB, it was never linked with the gallery demo (which was 1.1.0).
I think Greg used a customized, older version of phpBB when he coded 1.1.1 on a dedicated dev machine.
Is there anybody monitoring phpBB support forums? Are there people in the phpBB community that have worked on the bridge file?
