[Coppermine is a standalone image viewer and administration system]
This Joomla! 1.5 plugin was written by me in desparation as there does
not seem to be any other available (2008-10-25) The Coppermine help
forums point the finger at joomla, and vice-versa.
Firstly this plugin is really untested apart from by me on a few
internal sites. Please test and let me have feedback as soon as
possible.
Features:-
Integrates easily into a Joomla 1.5! installation with a Coppermine
installation in a subdirectory of Joomla, I use the subdirectory
/images/stories in the joomla installation (after deleting the Joomla
index.html there)
Lists the file name and path in the search results of Joomla.
Known Problems
Language at backend and display, I have included the language files,
but these have to copied by hand, ie. I cant find the place in the
documenation on how to install them properly -- If you know how to do
this then please let me know.
The search results are only in text form, and not in thumbnail / image
form. I unfortunately can't see how to persuade Joomla to accept the
html code to disply the images.
As the coppermine installation is in a subdirectory underneath Joomla,
all the viewing restrictions which could be applied by coppermine are
bypassable. Therefore only have pictures in coppermine which you don't
mind letting the rest of the world see.
I think this plugin will only work with php 5 and not php 4 (I am
unable to test with php 4)
Download file above
Use Joomla Installtion Manager to install (will not work by just
copying files as Joomla registers plugins in its internal databases)
Use the plugin manager to activate this pugin and apply parameters.
