Since cpmfetsh is no more supported in the latest coppermine version, this module is virtually useless until upgraded if you're using CPG from version 1.5...
Owner's reply

Not all true, but this has nothing to do with the module, just cpmFetch does not support CPG 1.5
There is a little trick around, how to get cpmFetch to work with Coppermine 1.5 too ...

I just installed it and tested on my site with amateur photography (still Joomla 1.0.x): "link removed" and it works nicely and smoothly even with 9649 photos in Coppermine gallery. I am so glad that you wrote this and gave it for free. I can hardly wait to test version for Joomla 1.5.
Nice job, I wish You good health and prosperity to You and Your family Andre!

Best regards,
Zoran

At first, I was scared that I wouldn't be able to use this mod because of all the options I found in the setup for it. However, after I read through them all quickly and set the ones I wanted to, the Pictures show up on my site PERFECTLY!!!
I couldn't ask for a better extension to show random pictures on my site.
Many thanks to the developer of this mod for a job well done!

I now have several instances of this on my site and it is very useful for pulling pictures out of Coppermine (a bridged instance) onto other pages for some updated photos. Very handy.

I'm using the mod to display a random image from some of the categories in my gallery and it does that perfectly.

I didn't want to use HighSlide and the mod was giving a page error in that configuration. I contacted the author through his forum and I had a fix to the problem within 24 hours. Great support :)

This extension is very slick at displaying Coppermine albums within a module. I use this extension with MosModule so that I can display the pics within the content area of my pages. The ability to display and link back to Coppermine albums works beautifully.

Support via the developer's forum has been excellent and he even made an update to the software to fix a problem that I was having with HighSlide integration and SEF.

I still need to tweak my HighSlide settings but as I said before, this extension works flawlessly for displaying images from your Coppermine gallery within a module!

I'm not great at html or php, and I'm kinda picky about how things look, and sometimes it's a bad combination. But in this case, Andre's support on his forum is excellent. He answers all questions, despite the fact that English probably isn't his first language, and he recently had a new edition to his family. Congrats Andre, and keep up the good work. I wish all mod/com creaters could give such good support.

I should add, this is probably the most customizable mod in terms of how it looks, that I've seen. You do need to know a little html (don't worry, very little) for the CSS, but information on doing that is on the website. And if you don't want to bother with html, the default looks fine too. :)

Many thanks for a lovely module.
The only problem I had (and this had nothing to do with the module) was getting the path to cpmfetch right. I found the easiest way was to publish the module and look at the error message that was generated. I just took the path from the error message, put it in the module and it worked great.

This is simle the best og em all.

You can resize all the pictures, so it will look nice.

The ONLY things missing, is "auto get Fetch Path".
