Yes it will be released separately, with lot of other things

The module is optional for the template

And the module is generic.

It can display the CB Menu like used for the template.

But it can also display any CB content (hence it's name) in a module (except users-lists in CB1.2). But fields, tabs, positions, and any substitutions, conditional content of the looked-at user, logged-in user, or any of both can be displayed (also content of any specific user as well).

So it is VERY flexible

More to come soon.

Can't tell how many days but it's cooooming....

Does the CB MyCommunity template rely at all on the Joomla! template or can it be used with any Joomla! template?

The CB MyCommunity template is 90%-100% independant of the Joomla template, but it doesn't override all joomla template settings, like any CB other core CB template.

Put otherwise:

The MyCommunity Joomla template doesn't have any CB specific CSS, as those are in the CB MyCommunity template.

But CB uses joomla template formatting, to look ok inside the joomla template.

Not sure if I answered your question, but inside another template it will have a similar effect like any other core CB template would have.

So no 100% guarantee, as it really depends on your joomla template, but changing the core cb template will give you an idea of what changes and what comes from the joomla template.

Will purchasers of the template get upgrades/instructions on the content module when released?

Also.. I purchased the template for the CB Plugin Template and Content Module. NOt the Joomla template. I realized after installing the plugin that the content module uses joomla template css and therefore I don't have the nice icons next to the menu items.

If I install but don't publish the mycommunity joomla template.. is there a way to "point" the content module to the mycommunity joomla template css?

Thanks

Either add the CSS for the menu to your joomla template or add it directly to the module.

The CSS for the menu is at the top of the CSS file for mycommunity template.
