To New users of Joomla! by qrme.co.uk, July 3, 2008
I've been working with Joomla! for about 2 years now (Been in IT development for about 20 years) and have tried countless extensions for the Joomla! platform. This is a *must* extension to have on your Joomla! website. This extension will give you so much flexibility. Joomla! is a great content management system and Community Builder will give you the social network edge to your website and I've never had to use Community builder forums once in 2 the last 2 years. Simple to install and administer and very stable with Joomla! 1.5 (make sure you have legacy mode on). Can't emphasise how important this extension is to you website.


CB 1.2 The game is on by Software4Joomla, June 7, 2008
1 of 1 people find this review helpful:
Version 1.2 seems to have a bit of a different table structure. But the improvements are amazing. Only headache we had was to upgrade our S4J Profile Status Indicator to be compatible with the new version of CB 1.2
But it's all figure out now and can be downloaded at www.software4joomla.com

I'm defenitely looking forward to the final stable version of CB on J1.5 native.


Wow!!! by cdlambden, June 3, 2008
1 of 1 people find this review helpful:
I really love it and it is perfect for my site (sf.connerpro.com), but I think it would be cool to have some Seyret integration where, instead of their videos showing up in CB, it'd be cool if their CB profile somehow showed up in Seyret under their videos. Just a thought, and thanks for the great component.

Easy to use extention MUST HAVE!! by davec1031, May 1, 2008
1 of 2 people find this review helpful:
Being a Joomla noobie, I found this really easy to install. It works seamlessly with my fireboard install and the rest of my site. I have been looking around at the plugins and thiers alot more features that I can't wait to check out! I am using it with Joomla 1.0.15 and the install was soo easy it was just the best install I have had so far. I have had alot of fun checking out the MANY ways that CB can add to and change and enhance my site. I love the way it all works together without any hacks to the original Joomla install.

If you are a noobie like I was, this should be the FIRST thing you install right after installing Joomla.


Why is this J1.5 Ready? It should be J1.0 Only by 123EzDeals, April 30, 2008
2 of 2 people find this review helpful:
Alot of time has been spent trying to make this work for J1.5 to no luck! Thinking it was everything but the CB componenet with all the visible bugs fresh from the install! I was sure It was my setup templates something! To find out this fantastic ext was not working properly. It should be made alot more clear this is not 100% compatable or finished for J1.5. Cant wait for more updates! And please let others know this is a beta and its not complete astheticly!
Lookin fwd to new releases!
Thank you Joomla and all developers!
Joomla is the best!


Community Builder by shadowstorm, April 27, 2008
1 of 1 people find this review helpful:
I have found this component VERY useful, it changes the login form to a much better & bug-free form, enables more fields to be created for registration, and allows special pages for individual users, plus, community builder has extension-specific plugins.
I rate this component #1.


Great Application but no User Manual or Version 1.5 support by jensenium, April 11, 2008
2 of 3 people find this review helpful:
This is a great application because it really expands your ability as a webmaster to control how users login, logout, and edit their profiles.

Although there is no version 1.5 support yet, I'm using it in legacy 1.0.x mode, and everything seems to be working OK.

The developer's financial model is to create free software, but charge for the user's manual. I still haven't figured out how to do the more detailed functions, so I wouldn't recommend this software if you get frustrated easily.

All-in-all, this is a good application that can take your website to new heights, but you have to be willing to shell out some cash, or wait days for answers on their forum.


Excellent for Clans/Guilds by =TRB=Hardcore, March 18, 2008
2 of 2 people find this review helpful:
Switching to Joomla 1.0 with CB as the CMS for my Clans website was an excellent move. The site should be going live very soon, and I have had nothing but positive feedback from the clan members regarding all the cool features CB brings.

Thanks to the dev team!


A great add-on...for J1.0.x! by powderburned, March 13, 2008
3 of 3 people find this review helpful:
This is a wonderful add-on for versions of Joomla prior to 1.5 but it is not truly compatible with J1.5.x legacy mode or not. I have spent considerable time pouring through the forums at Joomlapolis and tinkering with the component and modules as best I can and have not been able to get it to work reliably with j1.5. At best, it crashed my site only about 60% of the time.

The bottom line is that version 1.1 of CB is NOT as compatible with J1.5 as it's description would have you believe.

I will wait for both the native version of CB AND a migrator tool before I consider migrating my site.


No Matter What! by dxlwebs, March 12, 2008

No Matter What You Think Every Site Needs Community Builder...

When I first starting using Joomla i thought it was a great system with some problems with the user's side, until i found Community Builder with this simple and very easy to use tool you will never get any problems with users again!

i rate this component 10/10 for durability, installation, usability and support! they have a great community forum that is very helpful if you come across any problems, Community Builder integrates with all but everything, there are always new plug ins being made to keep your site members happy with fresh new tools and much more!

no matter what type of site you are running you will need Community Builder!

well done to all the creators!


An essential for any community based site. by imtravie, March 4, 2008
2 of 3 people find this review helpful:
Community builder in my opinion is an essential addon component to Joomla for any community based site, giving users the ability to create their own 'personal profiles' based on fields administrators can set up. The forums are very active and the component itself is simple to use and set up. Whilst like in any component there are flaws, this one really extends the community nature of your site, by giving users their own personal space. And another testimonial to the component or package is the number of plug-ins available to community builder made my third party developers.... if it wasn't that good, you would not see this many plugins


A must Have for Joomla Sites ... by piccaros, February 18, 2008
2 of 3 people find this review helpful:
Hi Folks,

Not just a simple component, it is the corner stone of my site. I have looked around and I found many components working together with CB which allowed me to develop a great community site. www.blogynet.com - Take a look - If you want to see the features of Community Builder - you have to register. Worth doing it...

good work

Not ready for 1.5 primetime by sbrawner, February 14, 2008
11 of 12 people find this review helpful:
It appears from the CB support forums and the lack of any bugfixes recently that this project is not being fixed up for J!1.5 release at all. I did install this component and the modules onto a plain vanilla 1.5.0 Joomla install but found them VERY buggy, lots of problems. After reading their rather poorly laid out forums for an hour or so and applying lots of little hacks, it would still not not work properly. I gave up. This project shows lots of promise that, frankly, really belongs in the core Joomla system.

Sorry, but this module needs more dev and lots more support.
