I am using Joomla 2.5, CB 1.9. The CB Manual I have is 1.8.1 and it seems to be a little out of date. I'm a newbie to CB and I can't get any new tabs I create to show up on the front end. I've followed the instructions in the manual, I can get items to disappear, just can't get my new ones to show up.
There is no plugin listed for my new tabs on the CB tab manager list like the other pre-loaded items have, but there is also not an area to select a plugin on the CB Tab Edit page. Nor does the manual mention plugins. That's the only difference I see in my tab and the pre-loaded ones.
I've not explored GroupJive yet but do have it loaded. When I did a search on this issue there seemed to be a GroupJive connection but I wanted to check in first before I spent more time trying to run this down.
Thanks,
Kara

You can download the CB 1.9 documentation from Advanced Download area.
In order for a tab to appear in frontend on a profile, it must have a CB field in it with a value.
Thanks nant but I'm still not having success. I downloaded 1.9 and the instructions are the same. Can you please elaborate on entering the CB field with a value? I don't see any sort of field that asks for a value.

You need to create and publish the new tab.
You need to create and publish a new CB field in that tab.
Then visit your CB profile in frontend and select the Edit your profile CB Menu.
You should see the new tab with the CB field in it.
If you populate this field and save the profile, then you will see it in frontend profile view.
