I appreciate those of you who have gotten better about posting since this forum started, but I thought I would post guidelines about posting for everyone.

Having a problem? First search the FAQ http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/faq.php
The FAQ  answers the most asked questions.

GOT RC3 ?
http://yoursite.com/html/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=help
This help file will help you the most if you are logged in as admin and user

Search the forums -(i can't say this enough) http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/search.php, try searching in several different ways check "Search for all terms" and then try any (default).  Try inputing your error message i.e. "template error"
Now the old board is also available for search http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/oldboard/search.php

Still can't find the answer, post here. We're happy to help those who have done this first.

If there is another post that has the same problem please post in that topic even if we say it's [fixed] (of course try the fixes presented),there may be something we missed.
If you can't find the same problem elsewhere start a new topic. Title your post carefully, others may have the same problem and this will help with their searches.

Tell us in your first post the address(URL) of your coppermine gallery, sometimes we can't tell what you mean by your post until we see it first. (if it's private say so and i'll request it via PM) if your gallery contains nudity please place a notice everytime you post (some are offended, some would get in trouble at work). if your problem is only visible as a registered user please provide username and password in your post or by PM I don't want to go though registering and waiting get the activation key. If it's something only visible to admin make a user with admin privileges and PM me that too (you can delete the account after we get it fixed).

Regarding your versions- tell us what version of phpnuke(if applicable) and your PHP config (is Safe mode on?). Tell us your browser version(s). It's not likely but maybe the prob only happens with your browser version. Do you have MODS installed? Please tell us to the best of your knowledge which are installed... and/or diagnose your problem by uploading the original file(s).

What configuration options are checked? Change the one that would seem to affest the pproblem area. Trying setting coppermine on debug mode and copy the message from there into your post.

We want to help but if we have to spend all our time asking for this same info over and it becomes not fun :cry:

Sample post:

For non english sites, it will help us to help you, please apply this mod featured at http://nukecops.com/postlite10500-.html

Open your modules/coppermine/include/init.inc.php file
Find

Code: [Select]

// Process language selection if present in URI or in user profile or try
// autodetection if default charset is utf-8
if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['lang'])) {
    $USER['lang'] = $HTTP_GET_VARS['lang'];
}

if (isset($USER['lang'])
        && !strstr($USER['lang'], '/')
        && file_exists('modules/coppermine/lang/'.$USER['lang'].'.php')){
        $CONFIG['lang'] = strtr($USER['lang'], '$/\\:*?"\'<>|`', '____________');
} elseif($CONFIG['charset'] == 'utf-8'){
        include('include/select_lang.inc.php');
        if(file_exists('modules/coppermine/lang/'.$USER['lang'].'.php')) $CONFIG['lang'] = $USER['lang'];
} else {
        unset($USER['lang']);
}

if (!file_exists("modules/coppermine/lang/{$CONFIG['lang']}.php")) $CONFIG['lang'] = 'english';
include "modules/coppermine/lang/{$CONFIG['lang']}.php";
and replace with

Code: [Select]

// Process language selection if present in URI or in user profile or try
// autodetection if default charset is utf-8
 global $currentlang, $language;
   if (file_exists("modules/coppermine/lang/$currentlang.php")) {
      $USER['lang'] = $currentlang;
    } else {
      $USER['lang'] = $language;
    }

if (!file_exists("modules/coppermine/lang/{$USER['lang']}.php")) {
  if (!file_exists("modules/coppermine/lang/{$CONFIG['lang']}.php")) {
    $CONFIG['lang'] = 'english';
  }
} else {
    $CONFIG['lang'] = $USER['lang'];
}
include "modules/coppermine/lang/{$CONFIG['lang']}.php";
