I need a hint on something.
I use {cb}[cb:userdata field="cb_company" /]{/cb} in an article accessed by a link which is link?user_id=1000&tmpl=component&pdf=true for instance.
For now it displays my own data and not userid 1000 data
I have tried with {cb}[cb:userdata field="cb_company"Â user="#displayed"Â /]{/cb} but it does not work.
Also tried by setting CB content bot to author or viewer but as none are author, this does not work neither.
Do you have an idea ?
Can I get the profile viewed userid be passed by CB content bot to the article so that {cb}[cb:userdata field="cb_company"Â user="#displayed"Â /]{/cb} would display correctly ?
#displayed only works directly on CB profiles. It will not function anywhere else. So you need to use #me for the viewing user or supply the user id manually. If "User" within "Content - Community Builder" is set to "Author" then all substitutions without user specified should come from the author. Are you saying that isn't the case? Are the substitutions always of the viewing user?

No it is working as intended with viewer or author.
If we pass the userid by url what do you suggest to retrieve it so that CB content bot would do the correct substitution in the article?
Works perfectly fine in all my tests. With User set to Author the [username] substitution correctly outputs that users username. With User set to Viewer it properly outputs my username. Using user="#me" will ensure the substitution is always my username with [cb:userfield field="username" user="#me" /] usage. This strictly only applies to Joomla content articles. Everywhere else will always substitution from the viewer.
