Hey Humpa.. I've got Gallery 2.1 on my server, and I LOVE it...
From what I've read, it can be embedded into other webpages, and I was wondering how/where I'd go to setup something similar to your site... I don't really want forum code or anything like that, but just a main page where users can login/submit registration, and then have that user session carry over to the gallery page when they go to it (shares the same username/password lists)
This at all possible/rediculously difficult?
Thanks in advance |

Use a gallery program that has a user signup already.
Coppermine has user code, so use that if gallery 2.1 doesn't. |

sorry, guess I was not specific enough..
I've got gallery setup with users, groups etc.
Gallery is located at mydomain/gallery
what I want to have is a user login on my main page, and then when you go to /gallery you would already be logged into that database instead of having to login to both sites twice. |

I didn't look too closely at drupal.org, but it looks good from the main page (does it have good reviews and a good community?).
Or you can just put a Gallery login on your main page. Just copy the login form code and stick it on your main page. You'll want to set the Gallery config to use a site wide cookie though - that's usually on the main config page. By default it is probably "/gallery" (or whatever folder it is in). Just change it to "/", otherwise the cookie will only work in the "/gallery" folder and subfolders. |
