Title: Coppermine bridge with phpBB errors.
Post by: synister on August 08, 2008, 02:05:01 pm

I just recently bridged phpBB with coppermine and everything is working correctly. I have only one issue with it.

My coppermine gallery loads in an iframe, and whenever a user logs in it kicks you out of the iframe. I did not have this issue with the default login packaged with coppermine.

You can see it for yourself here:

www.liteenbash.com
username: cptest
password: default

Just click the gallery link at the top of the page to see what I mean. Thanks for the help I really appreciate it.

Avoid using iframes in the first place. This happens anyway, with or without Coppermine. Try asking at the phpbb boards for advice.

I have never really been told why its a bad thing to use an iframe, but I will leave that question at a differn't support forum. Thanks for the help nibbler, im killing my iframe and making a header and footer instead.
