Hi

WAMP Apache 2.2.22 / PHP 5.3.13 / MySQL 5.5.25 / Win 7 x64
J! 2.5.9 / 3.0.3
CB 1.9 with bootstrap template 1.0.2
CB content bot 2.1 with "template, js, plugin and language" enabled in advanced options
Using either the default J! templates (Atomic / Protostar) and T3v3, GK MusicFree, Gantry 4, Yoo Warp Free, Shape 5 Vertex

I've been trying to use the bootstrap formatting using cb content bot in an article "{cb:[cb:usertab tab="xx" user="#displayedOrMe" output="xxxxx" formatting="xx" reason="xx"/]} for editing one of the profile tabs.
Although I'm able to output the fields for editing (output=htmledit & formatting=table & reason=edit or reason=profile) I can't get the bootstrap template to be used within the substitution - specifically the table row highlights and odd/even highlights.

I've tried all the possible API combination, made several fresh installs of Joomla 2.5 and 3 and tried switching themes from the ones mentioned above.
Nothing works: I always get the standard theme display and even using theme overrides css (custom.css / override.css) and copying the entire bootstrap css there.
I've tried switching all the advanced cb content bot options ON/OFF one by one, clearing caches, checking in, changing browsers, etc to no avail.

CB content bot simply looses formatting and only retains the template formatting not the component (bootstrap) theme.

Any hints on how to solve this?

Thanks in advance,
Alexandre

sadly, no replies after two weeks.

And when I had a Professional subscription, Kyle usually replied within a day.

I must say that CB team is at leat coherent: if you pay you get support (sometimes a little, sometimes a lot), if not - no support.

Anyway, my own reply (sorry guys): the reason CB does not allow to use the bootstrap template outside the component is because it does not follow (at all) the MVC model.
It's damn hard to create alternative CB views or to isolate parts of it (for example,just a tab and the OK/cancel buttons).
Bottom line, if one has use for the existant views, then go for CB. If one needs a different view, then go for something else (I will not present the alternatives here, you can find them on the JED and in wordpress plugins directory).

Thanks anyway.

Thanks Kyle

You are the best


Do you have an expected schedule for he rlease of CB 2.0? I want to renew my subscription, but only by the time the new version comes out.
