IVE DONE IT!Ok so i dissagree with daniel15 of smf I like handing people answers on silver plates if i can
So listen up
Step 1.
Put Both Coppermine and smf in the same MySQL database (DO NOT USE FANTASTICO use the webintstall that comes built into Coppermine and smf!)
In my case I put SMF into Forum_ prefix and Coppermine into Gallery_ prefix
Step 2.
Bridge the two (using Coppermine bridge manager)
Step 3.
Create a file called Coppermine.php (yes the capital "C" makes a difference!) save it in "sources" directory in SMF' intallation folder containing :-
CODE
<?php
if (!defined('SMF'))
die('Hacking attempt...');
function Coppermine()
{
global $context, $mbname, $txt;
//Load the main msn template
loadtemplate('Coppermine');
//Load the main msn template
$context['sub_template'] = 'main';
}
?>
Step 4.
Create a file called Coppermine.template.php In your theme (the one your using or want) im using default which makes it easier! It needs to contain
CODE
<?php
function template_main()
{
global $db_prefix, $scripturl, $txt, $user_info,$settings, $modSettings;
echo ' <center><iframe width="900" height="800" src="www.Yourwebsite.com"></iframe></center>';
}
?>
Step 5.
In your index.template.php file add this where you want your gallery to appear
CODE
// The Coppermine Gallery
echo ($current_action == 'Coppermine' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '"> </td>' : '' , '
<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'Coppermine' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=Coppermine">Gallery</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'Coppermine' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '"> </td>' : '';
Step 6.
In the index.php root look for this
QUOTE
'coppa' => array('Register.php', 'CoppaForm'),
After that add (on the next line)
CODE
'Coppermine' => array('Coppermine.php', 'Coppermine'),
That it all that i did and it worked
What did go wrong thoughWell in step 6 if you look at this bit
QUOTE
Coppermine' => array...
people often change the capital "C" to a lower case it sometimes works but in my case it didn't!
QUOTE
Fatal error: smf_main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/homepages/xx/xxxxxx/htdocs/scjb-test/Sources/Coppermine.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/xx/xxxxxx/htdocs/scjb-test/index.php on line 355
In the Coppermine.php file make sure there is no spaces in the file name!
