can CpmFetch destroy my forum or gallery?
« on: April 11, 2007, 03:04:58 pm »
Hi. I have SMF and CPG working well. And I'm glad about it.
But I also want to make my site look better so I thought I could display random pics from my CPG gallery.
I guess CpmFetch can solve my problem. But I have one question: Can CpmFetch make something wrong with my current working CPG or SMF?

Excellent question.

No.  CpmFetch does not do any writing to your database.  I specifically had not messing up peoples galleries in mind when I designed it.  The new version cpmfetch 2.0.0 should automagically detect that you have a bridged installation and work fine.

So yes, no worries.

The other nice things is that CpmFetch is completely standalone and does not require you to modify your cpg program at all.  If you don't like it, just delete the cpmfetch directory and you are just as you were before.

:D

Thank you very much.  :)
That's very important it's standalone and can't brake already working systems.
I'm going to try it.  :)
