I DONT REMEMBER HOW I DID THIS!

7) Add a new user menu item as a Link-URL and point it to
index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=usersList
(this will be the searchable users list).
Note: if you make the menu being the first of the main menu it will
become the site's homepage.
I DONT REMEMBER HOW I DID THIS!

8) Open up file "components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbcore/cb.core.php"

• On Line 529 change "$params =& $juser->getParameters();" to "$params =& $juser->getParameters(true);"

• (Dreanweaver CS3 has these marked as lines 1057 and 1059)

9) OPTIONAL Goto Components -> Comunity Builder -> Tools Click "Load Sample Data"

10) If you want to allow registrations only through Community Builder
(recommended):

• in Admin->Components->Community Builder->Configuration->Registration:
• set "Allow User Registration" to "yes, independently of global site setting"
• in Admin->Site->Global Configuration->Site(Joomla 1.0/Mambo) or ->Users (Joomla1.5):
• set "Allow User Registration" to "No".
  
  IMPORTANT: Check your registration page: the ordering of tabs is
  now better respected for registrations too, so tabs may have moved
  to previous versions. Typically, username is not anymore mandatorily
  the first field on the registration page. The new ordering is now:
  a) registration ordering of tab (new: can be set in "edit tab")
  b) position of tab on user profile (top-down, left-right)
  c) ordering of tab on position of user profile
  d) ordering of field within tab position of user profile.

11) Done !
