v2.1 Adds the capability to include any _comprofiler or _users field name as a placeholder in the notification message. Also adds the option to have an email sent upon registration initiation that contains all field data entered on the registration form. Finally, eliminates all uses of the $GLOBALS array left over from the 1.0 version.
v2.0 Joomla 1.5 native (tested on 1.5.9). 1.0 support ends, but older versions still downloadable.
v1.7 Adds the ability to enter multiple admin addresses.
v1.6 Minor bug fixes.
v1.5 Adds the ability to CC user's connections.
v1.4 Minor bug fixes.
v1.3 Corrects a problem with date comparisons and applies the suffix to notification emails (it had been inadvertently omitted).
v1.2 Corrects the XML version, which tripped up the CB installer.
v1.1 Fixes a strange bug with date field handling. For some unexplained reason, identical dates always tested as different.
I have used this plugin on 2 Community Builder sites. It is a valuable part of the user management system the site owners required. I had a need for a second instance of the plugin, and the developer had a solution for me within a very short time of my posting to his forum. Thanks for this great plugin.
Just played with it for a short period of time... but i love it already. I agree with some previous posts here: This should be a CB core feature.
Go – get it!!!

Due to the setup of my site, certain 'articles' are manually put up in extra modules on my site by myself. Every time a user changed their 'about us' field, I needed to update their 'article'. This meant going through every users 'about us' field on a fairly regular basis to check for alterations etc.
Needless to say, this was a minor irritant, but I was willing to do this as the articles were fairly important.
But no more!
Any changes, and I get an email informing me of the changes made, and by whom. Terrific!
MANY Thanks to the programmer for a simple but EXTREMELY useful extension.
1 minute install, 1 minute to alter some paramters, and Im good to go.

At first I wasn't quite sure if this was what I was looking for. I went ahead and installed it and was happy with the way it works. It is just what I needed! The site I use it on can have a lot of changes made to profiles. Checking profiles manually for changes would have been a chore. By having email sent when a profile changes make life a lot better! Thanks for an excellent application!
I have used this simple plugin.
Within less than 10 minutes, I can make it run to my preference.
Thanks a lot for this great job.
I hope that the developer will continue the development to J1.5 native and even to J1.6.
Moreover, I think that this plugin should be a standard in CB.

I use it in combination with MMS Blog - I simply set this up to track everything in CB, which I use as photography/digital artistry customer tracking profiles.
I then set it to email to a special account for MMS Blog, which in turn I set up only viewable to me. Then set up a latest MMS Blog post module (for that specific category) made it only visible to me. And wooo woooo - I get up to the minute updates of customer activities and request.
Especially request, because I give them lots of options via their profiles - when they would like a product of mine they simple fill in that list of fields. CB Profile Notifier then emails MMS Blog with all the info and MMS Blog then displays the list of request nice and neat in a blog on my website.
I can then go to the requester profile and handle their order. I opted this versus checking individual email request via forms that they would submit...gives it a more natural flow.
Thanks for the rocking component. I will be hitting some donate buttons...
Peace Out

Just what I needed, We ask job hunting members to update their profiles when they ask to be on our list of job seekers. With this we don't have to check back with the to see if they do the requested changes.
An extra bonus was that it cured the problem we were having with new registration notices not being sent to the admin.

CB Profile Notifier notifies about all changes in all fields, that are not manually excluded! Thats what it does and this it does very well. You can change the Style of the notifying mail to text or to html with all its features. I am wondering why this havent been a CB included feature yet, as I think it may be usefull to a lot of people. Overall you get fast and nice support of the developper in his forum.
The idea is good and the plugin is well working but it could be greatly improved if it can include custom fields in the list of monitored fields.
The current list of monitored fields are maybe the least updated fileds.

The plug-in DOES support custom fields, just not as selectable via dedicated radio buttons. You have to enter custom field names in a text box.
