[SOLVED] Is there a way to use CB Fields completely outside of the CB user profile display, etc?

How would we go about using CB Data outside of Community Builder; or,is there no feature of CB that allows us to use CB Field Data, for example, in a Joomla article that is displayed totally outside of CB?

Assuming I know which user's data I want to show and can get their user id. Is there any way to do field substitution using CB and its plugins or do we have to code that ourselves?

From what I think I understand now, the Field Substitution features of CB Articles, conditionals etc., only work within the CB environment, for example, in the CB user profiles, etc.

I'd hate to create a solution to use the cb fields in an article if it exists already or that could be modified to make it work.

Any light you can shed on what is possible will be much appreciated.

CB Content Bot (Professional downloads section) will allow you to use CB substitutions within Joomla articles. CB Content Module (Advanced downloads section) is a module that can output CB subscriptions. Either of those should cover your needs.

Thanks a million Kyle, I'm glad I asked. Will review those and probably upgrade to get them. I believe we can close this one.
