Substitution not working in Custom HTML modules was created by securepro
I have substitution working inside an article but it doesn't work when I paste the same substitution code in an Custom HTML module.
Code:
The user {cb:[cb:userdata field="username" user="#me" /]} name is: {cb:[cb:userdata field="name" user="#me" /]}.

Does substitution work in Custom HTML Modules?

if you are on Joomla 2.5 - in your Custom HTML module parameters have you specified prepare content to Yes?

Sorry on the version omission.

It doesn't work on Custom HTML modules. For substitutions in modules you need our CB Content module. CB Content Bot is for articles only.
