Need help with something a little different with 'cpmfetch'

[Ken.]

First off maybe I should say that the block code snippets that are posted here for cpmfetch are great and Iââ,¬â,,¢ve used most of the good ones at various times.
My current set up is with:
SMF 1.1.2
TP v0.9.8
cpg 1.4.10
cpmfetch 2.0.0

Itââ,¬â,,¢s all working OK and so there are no issues there, but Iââ,¬â,,¢m trying to do something a little different and for two days now itââ,¬â,,¢s been ââ,¬Ëœup against the wallââ,¬â,,¢ time for me!

So here it is;
A version of the Dynamic Drive script for Tabbed Content that was posted by Gobo is running on my forum Home page and Iââ,¬â,,¢m trying to include my cpmfetch ââ,¬Ëœrandonpic.phpââ,¬â,,¢ file at the bottom of the Welcome tab, below the content thatââ,¬â,,¢s already in place there.
Iââ,¬â,,¢ve tried most everything that is found here in the block code snippets board, searched the DD pages, the cpmfetch pages and did Google searches but so far itââ,¬â,,¢s just not working. There is lots of stuff about including HTML in php pages, but nothing about pulling a php page into an HTML script page. ( the welcome tab content is written with HTML)

This is one of the versions of code that has been tried for pulling the cpmfetch output into the welcome tabââ,¬Â¦

Code Select Expand

<?php include("/cpg1410/cpmfetch/randompic.php"); ?>
This one and others have been tried in various spots in the existing code and with and without various tags,
You can see the current attempt at the bottom of the code below.

I would be most thankful for any help.

Here is the code from the DD tabbed content script:

Edit: Ps: The cmpfetch output can be seen
HERE

[Crip]

Do you have it in a phpblock?

[Crip]

It wil not work in any HTML page....

[Crip]

HTML page may work if you remove all php code and add the absolute path:
but I'm not sure ?

Thanks for the reply Jeff
That's not working. 

I'm going to keep searching for some way to call the cpmfetch output into the welcome tab...
The simple thing to do would be to just place the code in an article or block but that would not give me what I'm going for here.

Thanks... Ken

[lurkalot]

ooh, this thread's an old one. 

Ken,, just out of curiosity, are you still using coppermine gallery on your sites?  And cpmFetch?

If so, what versions of both please?

[Ken.]

Stopped using it a long time (3+ years?) back lurkalot, but still had it installed until 3-4 months back when all of the albums and files were copied to my PC and then everything, including the db, was deleted from the server.

I did download the latest release yesterday and have considered a fresh install with a bridge to my live site.

[lurkalot]

Thanks Ken. 

Does seem a lot cleaner now with the curve theme etc.

Here's one of my little test galleries.  http://thepicvault.com/galleries/

Be aware though that cpmFetch won't work with the new version, (well it will with a bit of modification, but it loses some functions).

Bridge works ok too, sort of lol.. 

[Ken.]

That looks good Lurk. 
Luv all of the birds...  especially those BOP.

This morning I've been trying(?) to install and bridge to my live forum, but ran into the same users list critical error issue that you had.

I'm reading up on your topic now trying to sort out mine.

[lurkalot]

I'm reading up on your topic now trying to sort out mine.

You're running separate databases?  Second from last post in that thread should sort it.   

That looks good Lurk.

Thanks.
