IMPORTANT - This component does not work with any other registration or
login modules or hacks. It is recommended that you uninstall all such
modifications as the effects of using them with this component are
unknown.
IMPORTANT As for any installation: BACKUP FIRST your database and files.
IMPORTANT - You should have all Community Builder plugin installers that you
installed before at hand, or use the expert installation procedure below.
DO NOT uninstall plugins that you want to keep after upgrade.
UPGRADES: DIRECTORY/FILE OWNERSHIP/PERMISSIONS (common Joomla/Mambo problem):
If you have uploaded Community Builder by ftp to the web server without
changing directory permissions or ownership, you should either:
- ask your hoster to do so first, so that the webserver process running
Joomla/Mambo is able to delete old files on uninstall in step 3 below
and create and write new directories and files.
- or for Mambo and Joomla 1.0 only consider the expert upgrade
(instructions below)
Alternatively for upgrading only, if you have ftp, take a look at
alternative 5-steps EXPERT upgrade instructions at end, otherwise read on.
IMPORTANT - This component does not work with any other registration or

KNOWN PROBLEMS:
- none, check www.joomlapolis.com forum "Identified Issues" for latest.
NOTE: Community Builder includes a version checker that accesses
joomlapolis website to query for the latest version of CB and, if
available, latest information displayed together with the latest
version number in backend. This query doesn't disclose any private
information. Only information needed for this standard http query
are version number and referrer (site address). If you don't have
Internet access, after a timeout of 20 to 90 seconds an error message
will be displayed instead of latest version when showing your config
or "about CB" from the backend. You can switch this check to "manual"
in CB configuration: "integration" tab (Not recommended).
