Integration Questions - NOT with BB's

I read which bb's PP integrates with (I own a copy integrated with VB).

I read the How Do I's and I have searched on various terms such as php include, integration, etc ... but I am still not clear.

MY QUESTION: HOW MUCH CAN PP BE INTEGRATED INTO OTHER WEBSITES ON THE SAME SERVER?

Quote:

For example, here is part of a help file from another gallery detailing integration. How much of this can be done with PP?

1.One of our product uniqueness is we made our scripts capable to fit into your existing web design.

2. First, create a web page where you would like to publish your gallery. Save the web page file with .php extension, such as gallery.php.

3. To ensure the Photo Gallery works regardless the location of your web page, you will need to add your server's Document Path to all the PHP include codes.

4. Now, open the web page file (gallery.php) with your text editor.

Before calling the Photo Gallery scripts, insert the line below into your web page file to call the /--/config.php. The config.php file will loads all the class libraries and creates database connection.

<? include_once("/home/sitename/public_html/--/config.php"); ?>

5. Next, to load the Photo Gallery's categories and member login, place the include line below into the area you want the menu to display .....

6. In the body content section, put the following line to display your gallery ..... (etc)
In other words - this gallery integrates into a php page on any site on the server and functions within the website ...

I have never tried this with my PP -- but would like to know if this type of integration will work.

Thank you.

Hello

Do not quite follow exactly what your asking nor do your directions of help from someone even look like they are from Photopost since we do not have a config.php file.

MY QUESTION: HOW MUCH CAN PP BE INTEGRATED INTO OTHER WEBSITES ON THE SAME SERVER?

What exactly is meant by this? I will state this from our license agreement.

A Photopost license grants you the right to run one copy of the software license for one domain on one webserver. If you let me know a little more what your trying to do I may be able to lend a hand with some advise.

Sorry it isn't clear ...

Many have asked questions about having random images appear on other pages outside of PP.

I'm asking if galleries and sub-galleries can be made to appear inside the pages on another domain.

Another way to look at my question:

Use PhotoPost as the main gallery for holding all images.

Then on the dog.com website, you have the photopost sub-category for dogs appears, displaying all the dog images on that website.

On the cat.com website, you have the photopost sub-category for cats appear, displaying all the cat images on that website.

This is what I mean by INTEGRATING photo post into other websites on the server.

Thanks

There are a couple hacks in our unsupported modifications forum to display random images on some outside pages. One may modify our inc_features.php file to do this as well.

Well thats what I thought you where getting at which is why I stated the license agreement. Okay here is what you can and can not do.

Example say Photopost is on http://www.animalphotos.com

1. You may write scripts to include random photo blocks or mock a category list on other domains. However once clicked they must be sent to animalphotos.com since the application is only allowed to be installed on one domain and one install per license.

If you want your users to be able to click a cat link etc and the script operate on dog.com cat.com etc you must purchase a license for each domain used. This is standard licensing for commercial software.
