Hello,

Im using wordpress and gallery in one database. And I'm planning to create a php script that will select between the tables of wordpress and gallery. And im thinking of using the DB connection of gallery..

Quote:
$storage =& $gallery->getStorage();

is this possible? Can I select data from wordpress table (with different prefix from gallery table) using this connection.? Are there any other work-around on this?

regards,

I think it's ok... if you use $gallery->search or $storage->execute then use the gallery syntax for gallery tables (like [GalleryItem] or [GalleryEntity::id]) but use the actual table/column names for wordpress tables.
