Hello, Ive been searching around, and I havnt seen a way to put the sidebars from vBadvanced onto the index page of Coppermine. I dont think ive even seen it done, so is it possible without too much coding? I put:

define('VBA_PORTAL', true);
define('VBA_PAGE', 'gallery');

at the top of index.php. I just dont know what to put into:

eval('$HTML = "' . fetch_template('?????????') . '";');
print_portal_output($home, $HTML);

Am I just wwwaaayyy off here or what? I have a feeling its gonna be a little harder than 2 bits of code. Alright if anyone can help me out thanks.

Integrating the CMPS with another non-vBulletin script isn't as simple as that. Those are instructions for integrating the CMPS with a default vBulletin page or hack. ;)

Coppermine really runs it's own tables in the database and they are not truly integrated with vBulletin, they are only bridged together or Incorporated use so to speak.

The php modules for vb would need to be included in Coppermine and that opens a whole new can of worms. (Tried it myself). I have just finished up a random hack for Coppermine and do have plans for a sidebar in the Coppermine index. However this type hack might side step vb security for the database. If it can't be made secure I won't be able to release it.
