Coppermine 1.4.2 intgration to vB3.x.x

I hope I put this into the right section.
If not forgive me :dead:

From the archives Readme:
Coppermine 1.4.2
Working vBulletin 3.0.x *AND* 3.5.x bridge script

================================================== =

Hi everyone!

Since the bridgescript that comes with Coppermine 1.4.2 for vBulletin doesn't work at all I started digging in the script and corrected it to finally work.
While I was at it I also added support for the vBulletin 3.5.x branch

Installation:

Easy!
Just upload the "vbulletin30.inc.php" from this archive into your Coppermine's bridge folder while OVERWRITING the existing one.

You can then launch the bridgemanager (http:/www.yourdomain.tld/gallery/bridgemgr.php) and set everthing up.
That should have done it.

If you followed all the instructions from the manual and the bridgemanager you should now have a fine working Coppermine with your vBulletin.


I tested this myself on my own forums with the following setups:

Coppermine 1.4.2 -> vBulletin 3.0.3
Coppermine 1.4.2 -> vBulletin 3.5.1


See it working live in action at http://forum.skill-club.com/gallery/


Have fun!

Thanks a lot....... boy oh boy I have spend so much time to make the integration in the past and that didn't work.

Now it's running like a charm

Small Question:

I cann't find handling usergroups in the integration, is it in the manual or are my eyes still closed ? :ermm:

when you do the integration, the only thing it asks for are user ranks and privileges associated with their post count. however, that would IMPLY that it's taking userranks [and their permissions as ranks and/or groups] into account when granting access to the gallery. CPG by default only has ADMIN, USER, BANNED as usergroups anyways, so it would seem that during integration, that would be all that is carried over from vB...groups 1,4 & 8

i'm wondering if you unbridge then create usergroups in CPG to match those in vB [mod, supermod, etc], then reran the bridge wizzard, would the bridge support those usergroups in CPG? something to try...

I did set the usergroeps to no "ranks and privileges associated with their post count" and now I see the usergroups you mentioned and all is working.

Next I did unbridge the cmine and greated usergroups as a copy from my board. Cmine accepted that, but after re-bridge my 'manual setted usergroups' were gone. And the old standard was there again

Anyway thanks for the prompt help
