Did anybody tried installing Gallery2 with this module?
Gallery works fine with phpBB3 and drupal (gallery2 module).
-http://codex.gallery2.org/Integration
I'm going to try it, but first i'm asking here:
Shoud i install it as part of phpBB3 (our module works with phpBB), or should i install it as part of drupal where could be (more) problems?
Tnx for any advice.

This will be problematic, I
This will be problematic, I wouldn't attempt it unless you're a steady coder.
-If you change a user profile through Drupal:
This module will propagate the changes to phpBB, but not to a Gallery integrated into phpBB
-If you change a user profile through phpBB:
This module will propagate the changes back to Drupal, but not to a gallery integrated into Drupal
So the closest you get is if you disable Drupal userprofiles* and integrate Gallery into phpBB. You may stil have to do some work, depending on how the Gallery integration deals with new users.
*: I'm not sure I'm going to keep supporting that given the problems that have been discovered in the past couple of days.
Gallery module is really
Gallery module is really great!
I don't need user profile in gallery, just few profiles with access for adding images.
Here is what i did:
- As it writes in instructions, have to be installed as standalone. (as we did with phpBB3)
- Disable gallery's Registration module
- check: |_| Lock G2 accounts in drupal's gallery module(Locking G2 account prevents users from changing their details (password, email, ...) in G2.)
phpBB <-> drupal works fine, and i have photos from gallery in my drupal site as i wanted. It works enough for me.
Cool. I like Gallery too,
Cool. I like Gallery too, they have a proper API ;)
Thanks for reporting back on your success.
I'll have to ask questions
I tried to install Gallery2 after installing DRUPAL and PHPBB on a testing rig.. Didnt come out well.. It worked partially but, that may have to do with the profiles stuff... I might have questions for you pros then.. But first I need to try it again with what you did Mitto..
I'm not using profile module
I'm not using profile module in drupal. I have to make some more tests. But as i saw users AND grups from drupal can be easy imported without problems. For now there is no needs for me to have drupal's profile module.
I don't have needs to someone would view (his or others) or edit his profile in the gallery - drupal or phpBB3 is for this :D
All i want is to have some people that can upload photos, so only "editors" group will have rights to upload photos.
p.s. You all can check it here: www.slap-on.net
some day i'll try to use Localization module. There will be some problems.
