*** URGENT !!! *** - Require help with integrating piwigo with website 2

[c0deM0nK424]

hi all.

My client has a hosting account where he has two folders for each domain.

i.e in his public_html folder, he has two folders for his two domains.

domain A (folder)
domain B (folder)


inside domain B folder, i installed piwigo - a CMS image gallery thing. Or is it a CMS ?

the idea is to install onto his static html web pages (simple 5 page website i designed for him all hand coded using html and css , NO wordpress/drupal/joomla etc used) a gallery cms tool which will allow him to manually log in and add images to the respective page - in this case, the page is called 'Gallery'.


I installed piwigo successfully but it works under its own folder inside the domain folder itself.

i.e

http://www.bsplumbers.co.uk/piwigo

this is not what I want - well maybe it is, but what I want is integrate piwigo so that on the Gallery.htm page - the images are nicely presented to the user as thumbnails or some sliding gallery or w/e.


How do i go abouts this ? do i have to write some basic php script here which connects to the mysql database , and does some sort of fetch row thingy and echo's out the images one by one ? but this is v.basic....though it would do for now, I'd like to think there must be a ba-zillion things out there that would cater to my needs here.


Should I use 'coppermine' isntead ?

what should I be doing to enable me to integrate either , so that the gallery.htm page of the website displays the photos he adds through piwigo ?

please get back to me on this asap.


kind regards - CodeMonk

never heard of piwigo. an iframe should work though.

After reading a bit about Piwigo, I would have to agree with jpadie. An iframe will be the most painless way of getting this to work.

As far as i can tell, Piwigo, creates its own page rather than being embeddable in a preexisting page, so the easiest way to do this, would be to call piwigo inside an iframe in the page you want it to be in.
