CB

The joomla core events are bypassed on certain user actions by CB. This is because a SQL statement is executed, rather than calling the Joomla JUser API. The problem comes when people have Joomla user plugins installed that depend on the joomla user events. They never get called by CB, meaning these user plugins do not function correctly (whereas it functions when CB is not installed).

Example:
-New user registers and some form of confirmation is required.
-User clicks on the activation link, but CB directly updates the database (bypassing Joomla user plugins)
-Result with JFusion would be that the user remains blocked in linked softwares, despite the user being active in the Joomla database.
-End-user gets confused and site-admin has to spend time manually activating accounts or given user instructions.

The same goes for updating passwords in CB

Search of the CB code revealed a couple of places where #__user table is updated directly (search in eclipse with regex "UPDATE#__users")

cb/controller/controller.default.php
1,026: $_CB_database->setQuery( "UPDATE #__users SET block = " . (int) $actionValue . " WHERE id = " . (int) $row->id );

library/cb/cb.tables.php (4 matches)
1,252: $this->db->setQuery( "UPDATE #_users SET password=" . $this->db->Quote( $this->hashAndSaltPassword( $this->password ) ) . " WHERE id = " . (int) $this->id );
1,546: $_CB_database->setQuery( "UPDATE #_users SET password=" . $_CB_database->Quote($pwd) . " WHERE id = " . (int) $this->id );
1,689: $query = "UPDATE #__users SET password = '"
1,715: $query = "UPDATE #__users SET password = '"

comprofiler.class.php
839: $query = 'UPDATE #__users'

comprofiler.php
925: $sql = "UPDATE #__users SET password = " . $_CB_database->Quote( $newpass ) . " WHERE id = " . (int) $user_id;

Would you please be able to replace these calls with code that calls the joomla user events (through JUser API for instance)

Thanks, Marius
