Hi Kyle,
Thanks for the reply. I think my problem is in that part about "properly configured Joomla". I was running the earlier version of CB and it seemed to be properly configured then. I read in the newer version all I had to do is just install the new component and modules right over my existing installation and run the tools. That didn't work out for me so I've been trying to find the answer. With my SEF ON, new users are not able to register. They can fill out the form but when they click the button to submit it takes them back to the home page with no notification of any kind. They do not show up in my users afterward so their registration just does not happen. (From reading through the forum) when I turn off the SEF everything works great. Thanks in advance and please let me know what other information I can provide to help identify the problem.
