Coppermine Random Photos on vBulletin FORUMHOME (easy) · **Released**: 08-18-2006

This is basicaly the easiest way to have random photos from your Coppermine Gallery displayed on your vBulletin home page.
Tested and working perfectly. Here's the installation process containing only 3 steps.

Requirements : Coppermine Photo Gallery Installed.

Installation steps :

1. Download coppermine.php and edit the database info. After you're done, upload it in your forum root.

2. Open your vBulletin index.php file and under require_once('./global.php'); add the following line:

Code:

require_once('coppermine.php');

(save the changes > upload the file in the forum root)

3. Open your Style Manager ("Styles & Templates" in the AdminCP menu) and edit the FORUMHOME template.
Depending on where you want your random pictures to appear, you should paste this code eather under $navbar or .
The code you need to paste is:

Code:

 
<!-- / COPPERMINE GALLERY -->
<br>
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
				<td class='tcat' colspan='0' align=left>
				<span class='smallfont'>
				<strong>&raquo; <a href='$coppath'>Gallery</a>
				</strong></span></td>
				</tr>

 				<tr>
 				<td class='alt1' width='100%' align-middle valign=middle>

$copphotos
</td></tr></table>
<!-- / COPPERMINE GALLERY -->

(Save the template.)

All done.
