[SOLVED] CB Profile Book 1.2 | module bugs? was created by pepperstreet
Joomla 1.5.23, CB 1.4, PB 1.2
Just played with the stable release of CB Profile Book Module. Thinking about a light "activity" usage. The substitution support sounds great, and I tried only the default settings and some minor changes to get used to it.
In my test I used the "ALL" mode and registered 5 test users. Entered Wall and Blog entries. I checked the frontend as guest and 2 different registered users.
2 Problems:
1.) I always see the output from the SELF parameter boxes ?! I can´t see the different output for guests or another registered user
2.) The substitution [title] does not work for WALL entries. The output is nothing. (Even [post] is working)
1 Question:
I don´t have a clue how to use the additional substitutions: avatar_url, name_url, profile_url
Please, can you give an example with the right syntax

The right syntax was provided as the default parameters.
The _url substitutions are simply [avatar_url] for instance. They display exactly as they indicate, the URL to the users avatar or their profile or their name with URL to profile. There are only displays for "Self" and "User"; not sure where you're seeing the others. Self displays if you're viewing your own posts. User is if you're viewing a post that's not yours. Wall posts also have no titles, which is why the default is always "wall entry" instead of trying to render a title. Default parameters are as follows.
Guestbook (User):
Guestbook (Self):
Blog (User):
Blog (Self):
Wall (User):
Wall (Self):

1. Thanks for the explanations. I think I understood the usage and the meaning of SELF and USER. But I do always see the SELF output?! And i tried it with my different test users and as guest. To be sure, I put the big word "SELF" behind the respective params... and the big word "USER" in the other ones. In frontend I always see "SELF" at the end...
2. No title in wall post – makes sense! 
3. Yes, I was glad to find the defaults, but the additional params are mentioned in the description only. How do I use them? I can´t get an avatar...

1. I can´t get the USER output ?!
Just to be sure I got the idea: I posted as USER1...
If I browse the page and PB module I will see the content-layout from SELF box.
If I visit the page as USER2 or GUEST, i should see the content-layout from USER box.
Thats not working for me, I always see the SELF text output. Mmmh...
3. Grrrmpf, fortunately I did not spend many hours
No chance to get the avatar thumb? Why is this? Please, could you add this feature? Some older forum posts indicate that it worked in an older release!? It comes closer to an activity-stream with a "human touch".
