Pertinent data:
Mambo 4.5.2.
latest Simpleboard and myPMSII integrated.
CB 1.0RC2, from Mamboforge (Is this the same package available here?)
Removed CB 1.0RC1 prior to CB1.0RC2 install.

Update profile doesn't work for new fields, tabs. Reports no errors, but doesn't seem to post properly, as inputted data is lost. Please note that this is after having successfully added a handful of new fields to both the contact info tab, as well as the new tab.

If this has already been addressed in another thread, I apologize, but I've scanned MamboJoe's and Mamboforge, as well as dev.Joomla before scanning here.

I reinstalled CB1.0RC2 from the zip on Joomlapolis to no avail.

I don't think it has been addressed because I don't think it is a problem with the component. I have lots of new fields as well as tabs and the update profile works just fine. My only thought would be to back up your database and try removing then reinstalling CB. Good Luck

To be clearer, I had added tabs and fields that had properly updated when entered prior to the problem emerging. The only thing I can think of that could've had any bearing is that I entered a "public e-mail" that had no "@" in it, and CB tucked an ampersand at the end. I don't think that really has anything to do with it, but it was what happened immediately prior. In any event, I corrected it directly in the database. And I did try removing entirely, then reinstalling CB to no effect.

I could see the problem not being with CB at all, but thusfar, I have no particular reason to suspect it. I was thinking it might have something to do with Mambo, as I'm using 4.5.2 and the thrust of development seems to be towards the gradually forking Joomla.

Anyone have any experiences migrating a Mambo install to Joomla? Can I get away with just using the same database? I assume I'd have to remember to specify the mos_ db prefixes......

I'd be more than happy to provide a temporary superadmin login to any certified CB folks who'd be so kind as to take a (brief) look under the hood....this is getting truly maddening, since I use CB perfectly fine under other sites. (Albeit now under the Joomla wing; I'm just reluctant to migrate this site if I don't have to. I just got it the way I want it....minus CB.)
