upgrading - some lost info was created by hakalugi
this is a warning to others and a request for help.

Joomla 1.07 -> 1.08 and CB RC2 -> 1.0 stable upgrade.

the text in our CB Registration page's:

"Introduction text for registration"
"Concluding text for registration"

text areas is gone.

I backed up the mySQL db's before hand -- any one know where in the db these fields are stored? (we had a lot there and don't want to try and guess what we had written) :) thanks...

Warning to all of those reading such posts.
Why not read the readme file first?

In the download section of this site:
This area contains the CB 1.0 Stable Core Package. The zip file should be unzipped first to reveal the component zip and the 3 accompanying module zip files. Also please study the readme file before installing or upgrading. You can also download the installation document (in pdf form) from this site.

I read the readme, obviously i missed the part describing those items would be dropped.

wasn't posting to flame the coders, just to offer what i thought was a warning, and to ask for a tip on where these items would be in my backed up database.

since you have time to scold me, do you have time to point me in the right direction on the restore ? :)

The settings were in the ueconfig.php file (in your admininstrator/comprofiler folder). If you have a backup of your site (not just database) before unistalling CB you should be able to use the old file. If not you must redo all the configuration fields in the CB backend.

Sorry...
