This is an excellent Feature whcih will help in messing up two databases , for ur reference im attaching config file of that, please suggest if we have this feature or mod as ivenot found any in forum

Code: [Select]

1.3.x has complete instructions on how to bridge with a bbs/cms, and 1.4.x has a bridge wizard that does everything for you.

we will definitely not "borrow" code from a commercial app. Not sure what you're trying to suggest.

Ok i'll tell u  again

If we'vw to install coppermine with mambo cms the whole process is :

1) upload cpg on same site

2) To integrate (bridge) we use same sql database of mambo in cpg , with this automatically all the cpg_ tables are created in mambo database.

3) Now everything is clear if we want to get registered with cpg the user databse is same of mambo or its common database

 *** Now in this case in future if i want to delete this database of cpg or want to discontinue mambo cms & want to install any new cms i'll not able to use that immediatly because if i'll delete all the entries of mambo cms or cpg from same database & it can give errors.

   2nd Case  Now when we bridge Photopost with mambo

1) we upload photopost on same site ( like cpg)

2) IN integration process there are two options :-
   
    i) We can use same mambo sql database for sharing users & to install database of
       photopost

     ii) We can use same database for sharing users of mambo but can make new 
         sql database for photopost where al the gallery data will be installed (no users will
        be there in this database,obviously we will set instructions in config of photopost
        from where to get users)

*** Now what the benefit is photopost is only using users from mambo database & all its
      own data is installed in other database, in future if i want to change mambo cms to
      some other,then in photopost ive to change only  shared database name mean to
      say all the gallery database is secure only users will be changed

Sorry if i u cant understand !!!

Please for once read the config code above , there are options written which are self explanable


This is very good feature if u caught what i say



Thanks

OK, now I understand. Moving this thread accordingly from "support" to "feature requests".
