Hi.

I bridged Coppermine to my IPB forum.

I am wondering how I can change it so I can login to the gallery ON the gallery.

Right now, I click 'login' on the gallery and it goes to the forum login. Then I have to manually go back to teh gallery which is a pain in the butt each time.

Theoretically when it works it will take you back to the gallery on its own automatically. If it's not doing that then something is wrong

Depends on the BBS you bridge with: some support redirect after login, others don't. I'm not familiar with IPB and therefor have no idea if it supports redirecting. If it doesn't: edit your IPB template and add a link there that points back to Coppermine. If you have no idea how to accomplish this, look it up in the IPB documentation or browse their support boards.

If IPB is suppossed to support redirecting, do exactly as suggested in the sticky thread on this sub-board (the one that is mysteriously enough labelled "When requesting bridge support - mandatory!" and that you chose to ignore and posted your question anyway ).

For clarification: it is expected behaviour that you're being sent to the app you're bridged with after having bridging enabled in Coppermine: after all, bridging means that coppermine's built-in user authentification is being dropped in favor of the one that comes with your BBS. Therefor, your initial question "How do I stop it from going to the forum login?" is invalid. You can't stop this mechanism, as this is how bridging works. If you can't live with it, then you'll have to disable bridging and live with users having to register/login twice (once on your board, once for coppermine).
