Feature request: user sync for coppermine

Post by polar »

hi,

I would to know if it is possible to get a plugin which synchronizes the accounts between the seredpitiy software and the coppermine photo galery.

For users it is quite strange to have to have two accounts. And the coppermine galery offers more options than the media library of seredipity which is why I would like to keep using the coppermine galery.

Thanks for your answers!

Maybe a better way would be the integration of coppermine into s9y? So it would also use the layout of your blog...

Just my idea.

Coppermine already has a bridge format that is developed...they provide a 'generic' file for bridging user tables across applications.

If you download coppermine and look in the 'bridge' directory, the udb_base.php file contains a base bridge that you can adapt to s9y.

If you look at other bridge files they include, you should be able to get through it. Just get a breakdown of s9y user tables and one of coppermine's usertables, then head over to the coppermine forums and if you get stuck, ask for some help. They're really good about helping out...especially if you're wanting to use Coppermine and bridge it. That means more people will use it :D

I had to do this with my bulletin board (mybb) and they helped out quite a bit. I didn't even know php (still don't) but was able to get enough help to make my own bridge.
