I personally hate Photopost, it doesn't fully integrate with vB like the I want it to, I rather use my own.

Good for you Xyphen, got anything useful to contribute other than some lame flaming and some self serving crap that adds nothing to the conversation?

:rolleyes:

PhotoPost - change your nick - it will help you.
I undersand Xyphen, that is the same I did. Left PhotoPost 4.05 and made my own, simple, but integrated into vB gallery - looking at Coppermine now, to make it even better and write some add-ons for it. Just because the code is readable and it works ok with gifs.

i integrated coppermine with vbulletin now and i am very happy now :D
coppermine is a great script and the bridge is also very easy to configure :)

but i have a small problem:
i want my moderators in vbulletin also have admin rights in coppermine...

does anybody know how to do this?

i still could't find a solution ;(

For a more complete coppermine integration with vb3 also check out https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=60183. This allows coppermine to make use of the vb3 css and has a set of vb3 template mods.

This is fine - thank you!

I've tried this using the current hacks and explanations around,b ut I am having bad luck...

I just want to use the VBull usernames and passwords in coppermine, but I'm not really interested in having coppermine's style match the sites, as I will just setup 1 coppermine style and leave it at that. I also like the mod that makes sitename/gallery/user?username point to a users gallery.

Is there a way to easily get this configured? I am using vbulletin 3 rc4 and coppermine 1.2.1

For a long time, I believed that Photopost was the premier Photo Gallery software if you were running vB. A comparison of featuresets between Coppermine and Photopost has led me to choose Coppermine over purchasing a license for Photopost.

As a 501c3 charity, SpeedStreet was told by a member of the Photopost staff that there was "no way they were giving any discounts or copies to any car club...because that is where the meat and potatos of their market it" [sic]. Essentially, even though they could CLAIM money back on donating any product or discount, they still were unwilling to do anything for a group with a limited budget and a recognizable benefit through the USIRS. Yet, every other company we have dealt with has been much more professional about understanding non-profits, and has worked with us on many different levels.

Until Photopost adjusts their business saavy to be on par with their business prices, I cannot wholeheartedly reccomend this product to anyone taking a serious look at the cost/benefit analysis when comparing it to Coppermine. Also on a more personal note, I would reccomend to any company representing its product that you stay above the fray, and refrain from calling someone's post a flame when they are voicing an opinion about your product.

is the coppermine integration working with vb3 gold?

i haven't tested yet but i heard that it is not working...

has anybody already tested this?

Their head developer is trying to work through this right now. I recently upgraded my site, and took our existing gallery (a vB hack) offline.

http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/bo...2370&start=105

That's the thread where they need help. They need someone with a vB site willing to help them test. They don't have anyone on staff to do this right now. Nobody has vBulletin ;)
