Hello, I am curious about the new Canvas powered user profile layout. You have provided this quick and easy "Load Canvas Layout" in tools section. Is there any way to create this on my own? Preferably as a standalone or plugin installation.
Purpose: Create and distribute nice looking profile pages incl. layout, styles, settings and fields.
It's just doing database queries to move the tabs/fields around so yes you could have it in a custom plugin or just a phpmyadmin database query if you wanted. Specifically the code for it is in loadCanvasLayout of the following location.
IN: administrator/components/com_comprofiler/controller/controller.default.php

Is there any way to make it "easy & universal" and "waterproof" for end-users? I mean, create an installable package that does not destroy an existing setup... or should it be for new and fresh CB installations anyway? Maybe the latter creates less issues and problems
What about the previous QuickStart installer package? How was this one created?
You could write a plugin that on install it runs its installer script which moves tabs/fields around then uninstalls it self. CB QuickStart is created using our custom CB Package Builder plugin that can generate Joomla installable packages, but it's not compatible with CB 2.x yet.
