Sorry guys internet went down for past two days for adelphia to upgrade to a higher speed system. I will be working on it tomorrow and post up. The coppermine.ini.php file is in the bridge folder and to my knowledge and from what nibbler posted it is used UNTIL you have bridge 1 enabled in config. To what I have seen and tested when the functions are called upon it uses the coppermine.ini.php file and overided by the bridge file you create or use that comes with coppermine 1.4.3 stand alone. So basically it works like the theme system. If you change functions in the theme.php file it will overide the functions in the theme.ini.php. Functions not changed or not present in theme.php it will use theme.ini.php. So same goes with bridge. It uses the coppermine.ini.php file until functions are overiden by a bridge file. If the functions are not present it refers back to coppermine.ini.php.
PLEASE IF I AM WRONG TELL ME. but from what i tested it seems this way and I have made the bridge fully functional. I will post up the bridge file I used for my setup along with a seperate one for nuke.
Here is verification that core uses this coppermine.ini.php file. Delete it from site and see what happens.
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'bridge/coppermine.inc.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/photos/public_html/cpg143/include/init.inc.php on line 236
so now lets look at init.inc.php file on line 224-236:
// Set UDB_INTEGRATION if enabled in admin
if ($CONFIG['bridge_enable'] == 1 && !defined('BRIDGEMGR_PHP')) {
$BRIDGE = cpg_get_bridge_db_values();
} else {
$BRIDGE['short_name'] = 'coppermine';
$BRIDGE['use_standard_groups'] = 1;
$BRIDGE['recovery_logon_failures'] = 0;
$BRIDGE['use_post_based_groups'] = false;
}
define('UDB_INTEGRATION', $BRIDGE['short_name']);
require_once 'bridge/' . UDB_INTEGRATION . '.inc.php';
So from veiwing this it shows by defualt it uses the coppermine.ini.php file.
Thank you and let me know if something is wrong here.
