[SOLVED] How do I creat 2 different unique profile tabs?...

As the previous user has suggested it's likely an ACL issue you're running into. On Joomla 1.5 this isn't going to be possible. On Joomla 1.6 it will be possible through custom ACL groups. On anything but Joomla 1.6 you'll need something like CBSubs to help provide different profile types.

Dave,

And after thinking about the best way to describe CB's Connections, the best analogy is Facebook Friends. It's not exactly the same but very, very similar.

Now, if you want to change the name of it from Connections to Friends or perhaps Networking then you'll need to indulge in a bit of hocus pocus with some more 3rd party Joomla extensions. Initially I'd leave it as is until you feel it's functionality serves your purposes on your test site before trying anything else. If you then feel you want to change names then post back here and I'll explain how I did it.

Hi,

Thanks for all the feed back.

I am using Joomla 1.5 and hit the limitations of ACL groups. I will now investigate CBSubs (now I know want it could be for) or try the extension Community ACL.

Thanks for the Connections Facebook analogy. I thought that was the case, but my boss thought there must be more to it than that.

Cheers

Dave

PS I won't risk upgrading my site to 1.6 just yet!
