Tapatalk mobile app compatibility

Featured Replies

Just a suggestion: Add support for the Tapatalk (http://www.tapatalk.com) mobile forum apps to this forum. Seeing as it runs on a compatible version of SMF, it looks like it should be easy to do. It would be a nice thing for those of us who use the Tapatalk mobile app. Not trying to be pushy about it or anything, just thought it would be cool.

I second this.  Anything to make the forums easier to use from a mobile device would be welcome.

+1 for this.

I was trying to find the package for limetech becasue for a while I ran it on my website. I haven't reloaded it yet because I just upgraded my Forumsoftware.

 

However this is what I use here a lot on my phone. Doesn't show pictures, but its lightning fast and its already built in.

I use this as well.  Definitely fast and good app for reading forum posts from phone.  But has some limitations, maining ...

 

1 - No hyperlinks.  If a post includes a hyperlink, you can't tell and can't follow it.

 

2 - No embedded pictures

 

3 - No acceess to attachments

 

4 - No ability to edit a post you have previously made

 

Nevertheless, I use this feature a lot when I am mobile.

Yes it does have its draw backs. ;)

Installed Tapatalk. Seems a much nicer way of exploring the forum. I like

It works! This post is being created in tapatalk. Posting so much nicer. Using old mobile reader put you in a small text box that was hard to see and scrolling almost impossible. This is much preferred!

 

You do not have access to the formatting buttons so would have to remember and hand enter the codes.

One feature I use frequently in the old mobile app is called "Unread replies". It shows every thread that I have ever posted in that has one or more new posts. I can't find this in Tapatalk. The "participated" tab is similar but it is showing threads that I have already completely read. Can't find option to only show unread.

Works very nicely (as does the 'tap to quote' feature). Not that I post much!

implementing this thing messed up the boards structure :(

can you please renumber the boards to their right place again ...

Its the app. Just don't use it if you don't like the order.

Ditto.

I'm seeing the forum order as different after this upgrade using Firefox (not the tapatalk app).

Same for me .. in firefox and chrome

Not to sound harsh or anything but why does it even matter?

 

I am fairly certain that limetech can arrange the boards in whatever order he likes and tapatalk may have moved some stuff around, but it also could have been limetech doing the moving.  He may have been moving stuff around to get focus on the boards he feels needs focusing on.

cause it is not logical ... and some people like me hate changes .. it drives me crazy when the supermarket decides to move the stuff that i shop for...  i don't like to go through the whole shop .. just the things i need ...  :o

this is the same thing ... now i need to scroll past the old unraids to go to my favorite build threads

 

I know it is just an habbit but it is annoying now...  :'(

You know you can collapse that section right? I do that for a couple of sections as I don't look at them much and they are not really used.

Simply click the - on the sections you don't want to see. I will be the first to admit for the longest time I used to leave the 5.0 Development section closed when it was first being rolled out. I figured I'm not going to use it for a while so why look at it.

LOL - I didn't even notice anything different with the order  :o & I forget how the ordering used to be  ???

 

Was it this?

Server Building

Version 5 Development

Version 4.X Support (deprecated - use General Support above)

BTW, in case anyone is wondering ... I have no affiliation whatsoever with tapatalk - I only added the plugin since ppl in this thread requested it & I don't use it myself.

swap Version 4 and 5 around and the forums would be back in the original order.  Though I like this ordering better I think (5.0 is more relevant to now and 4.X boards are reply only).

 

Also, even within the forum sections themselves the order has changed, I think that is what sacretagent is mostly complaining about.

Thanks Tom for bringing order in the chaos :)

 

if you ever come to Thailand, i owe you a few beers  ;D

Didn't know tapatalk before. But I love having access to it like this weekend being on the road visiting family without normal browser access. I'll be using this daily I think. Thank you for enabling it. It is good medicine against compulsive board checking itches...    :D

Good grief, I took a little while to check back in on this topic, and not only is there progress, but it's actually working. Neato. Thanks, for getting this working. Gives me something else to do while I'm sitting at restaurants... :)

 

Thanks!
