Coppermine 1.2.1 / vBulletin 3.0.0 Integration · **Released**: 03-21-2004

Coppermine Gallery 1.21 and vBulletin 3.0.0 Integration
Version 1.0
Compiled by SpeedStreet

I'm not the hacker for this; I am merely the guy who poured through all of the threads on vBulletin.org and the Coppermine Development Forums to come up with one definitive post about integrating vBulletin with Coppermine.

WHAT IT DOES:
At the end of this how-to, you're installations of vBulletin and Coppermine will work together off of the same login. While everyone else wants to see all sorts of integration between the two, I believe this is the first step to making those things happen.

CREDITS:
A big thanks to everyone over at Coppermine for a terrific product and the users that support and mod it on a daily basis. I am merely standing on the shoulders of giants here, folks. Also, Nanobot was the guy over there that did the vB3 Gamma bridge, so the credit for that is all his.

FILES TO EDIT (2):
/bridge/vbulletin3.inc.php (Coppermine)
/include/init.inc.php (Coppermine)

HACK REQUIREMENTS:
vBulletin 3.0.0 Installed and Running
Coppermine 1.2.1 Installed and Running
5 Minutes of your time

FINAL WARNINGS:

There are seem to be some issues with people integrating this with forums located on subdomains (e.g. subaruforums.speedstreet.org). Please reference the Coppermine Gamma Thread above for more info.
Please ensure that Coppermine and vBulletin cookies are NOT named the same thing.

Anyhow thank you for sharing your modification with the community. They might be usefull for some.

Those checkboxes didn't really catch my eye. Could have been more obvious, but that's a usability issue. Thanks for your reply.

No problem.

Well all the important information is in the bar in the top and on the right.

Ok, to take this one step further. The login doesn't work well either, it logs me in, but I am not taken back to the gallery.

In reference to the following hack:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...2&page=1&pp=15

First off, a small correction:

bridge/vbulletin30.inc.php

Replace all instances of "VB_BD_HOST" with "VB_DB_HOST".

So here is my modification:

bridge/vbulletin30.inc.php

#1
Find:

PHP Code:


			
 define('VB_WEB_PATH', '/forum/');

Add underneath:

PHP Code:


			
 define('VB_DOC_ROOT', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/forum');

Of course you have to modify the path, this works in my example.

#2
Find "function udb_login()" and replace its contents with the following:

PHP Code:


			
function udb_login_page($url)

{

    $bbuserid   = (int) ((isset($_COOKIE['bbuserid']) && !empty($_COOKIE['bbuserid']))?$_COOKIE['bbuserid']:0);

    $bbpassword = (string) $_COOKIE['bbpassword'];

    $bbusername = (string) '';

    $db_conn = mysql_connect(VB_DB_HOST, VB_DB_USERNAME, VB_DB_PASSWORD) OR die('vbbridge: No connection.');

    mysql_select_db(VB_DB_NAME, $db_conn) OR die ('vbbridge: No such database.');

    $query = "select username from ". VB_USER_TABLE ." where userid = $userid";

    if($rawdb = @mysql_query($query)){

        if(mysql_num_rows($rawdb) > 0){

            $array = mysql_fetch_array($rawdb);

            $bbusername=$array['username'];

            mysql_free_result($rawdb);

        }

    }

    mysql_close($db_conn);

    if(empty($bbusername)){

?>

<html>

<head>

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo VB_WEB_PATH; ?>clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js"></script>

</head>

<body>

<form action="<?php echo VB_WEB_PATH; ?>login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password,vb_login_md5password);">

<span class="sectionheader">Username:</span>

<input type="text" class="button" name="vb_login_username" id="navbar_username" size="15" accesskey="u" tabindex="1" value="username" onfocus="if (this.value == 'username') this.value = '';" /><br/>

<span class="sectionheader">Password:&nbsp;</span>

<input type="password" class="button" name="vb_login_password" size="15" accesskey="p" tabindex="2" /><br/>

<input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" tabindex="3" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" checked="checked" />

<span class="sectionheader">Remember Me</span><br/>

<input name="submit" type="submit" class="button" accesskey="s" tabindex="4" title="Log In" value="Log In" />

<input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />

<input type="hidden" name="forceredirect" value="1" />

<input type="hidden" name="url" value="URL_TO_YOUR_GALLERY_HERE">

<input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />

</form>

</body>

</html>

<?php

    }else{

        udb_redirect('index.php');

    }

    // hard exit

    exit;

}

Make sure you replace URL_TO_YOUR_GALLERY_HERE in the code snippet. You can make it more pretty by including CSS and so on, and so on. This is quite dirty. But it works.

Cheers,
Till

I have probably missed something simple but I installed the hack and the coppermie login button works correctly (takes me to the forums but when I go back to coppermine I am not logged in. LOGIN takes me back to the forums and register tells me I'm already registered
Thanks
Rick

So will this work with 3.0.7 or should i go with the 4images one?

Ironhead · #**217** 05-23-2005, 09:39 PM

Right below "// Nothing to edit below this line" you have to set the table_prefix and the cookie_prefix

('VB_TABLE_PREFIX', 'vb3_'); and ('VB_COOKIE_PREFIX', 'bb').

Both of these values can be found in your vBulletin config.php.
vb3_ and bb were the default vB settings in config.php

I've got a copy of CPG 1.3.3 and VB 3.0.7 and I'd really like to get this working so that I can have SOME form of photo gallery up and running.

Does anyone have this working with cpg 1.3.3 and vb 3.0.7 that can upload their vbinclude30.inc.php file for those of us who don't have a clue how to code php/mysql???

Please?

I worked out the problem, that admins weren?t able to upload pics...

Go to the directory of your coppermine-theme and open the "theme.php", there you have to look for "// HTML template for user admin menu"
In this Block you?ll find the code for the three links. Just cut it out there and paste it where do you want to have it into the Block "// HTML template for main menu" (should be the first one).

I think the problem was, that this user-admin-menu is based on the admin-menu. If you were in admin-view it was overwritten and if your were in user-view it wasn?t shown.

That wouldn?t work on your board.
You have to enter the information for your board into this file and not someone elses.

Actualy it?s really easy and the comments in the file are very clear and not too hard to follow.

Will this work if I only want one custom usergroup to be able to upload? while the others can only view

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
