    i believe their is a mod_rewrite add-on for coppermine but i believe when i tried it was still in beta stage and was buggy.

    I used the default plugin, installed it, and now can't access any part of the gallery, and have no idea how to undo whatever I did by clicking to install it.

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Jonathan

    Just delete .htaccess file from root of your gallery and you will be fine. If you want, i can explain you how to play with this rewrite mod...

    Even the URL rewrite plug-in doesn't make it search engine friendly.
    There are a lot of duplicate content in coppermine. The same image is displayed with different urls.
    And the metatags are not optimized.
