Move / Copy CB Database was created by celestine63
Hi everyone, I hope I haven't missed the weekend cut off, I have a question, I have set up community builder pretty much the way I want it, i have made heaps of modificatios created numerous custom fields etc. I would like to use this configuration as the basis for all my joomla projects.

I am trying to find the best method to add this to a fresh joomla install for starters what other database tables other than the ones containing the comprofiler prefix ?

And are any other CB folders besides components/com_comprofiler & administrator/components/com_comprofiler ?

What would be the best idea in regards to users, delete all users from copy of existing joomla site, or is it better to transfer joomla user tables also ?

Nope, see my signature for days and hours am available. :)

I have set up community builder pretty much the way I want it, i have made heaps of modificatios created numerous custom fields etc. I would like to use this configuration as the basis for all my joomla projects.

Core edits or just setup a bunch of tabs, fields, plugins, etc...? I do not suggest making core changes!

Assuming your changes are just database related this is what you'd do on your new site.

1. Install CB
2. Copy your CB configuration file found at administrator/components/com_comprofiler/ue_config.php to your new site
3. Install the CB plugins that are installed on your old site on your new site (maybe use our package builder to give you an easy install of everything?)
4. Copy your database over from your old site to your new site
5. Delete all the database rows in _comprofiler except for the admin

With the above done you should be done. You could even export your _comprofiler database tables as .sql, added them to a package builder package in extensions/query/ and it'll perform the queries for you when you install the package.
