Is it possible we could have this forum added to tapatalk?
See here: http://www.tapatalk.com/plugin.php
It would probably mean i get to browse it more often, and update notifications and general ease of use on most mobile smartphones (iPhones and Android in particular) make it see fairly sensible? Unless we already have some kind of mobile access that i'd thoroughly missed |

A plugin for the forum that adds our forum to a list for tapatalk. Tapatalk itself an app that basically makes forum notifications/replies/whatever "push". It makes forums much more phone friendly It basically strips out the content of he forum and serves it to their app which creates the sytle and interaction elements. Pretty clever
More importantly is its fairly cross platform; BB, Symbian, iPhone and Android supported unfortunately not PalmOS yet. Last edited by LeperousDust; 04-04-2011 at 16:19. |

Ahhh, looks like it needs a plugin added to VB, if Jamie or Daz are happy to do that I don't have an issue with it

Yeah that's why i asked The plugin serves to the app, but i'm not sure what our policy on having lots of 3rd party plugins is, and i understand if its an ass to upkeep, or if it's removed for being unstable. Just thought we could give it a go, i know most of us would probably use that more than computers i guess if we got the chance? Fairly sure i would!

I'd be nice to have, I use it on a couple of other forums and it makes reading them on a mobile much easier.

It's funny as 99% of the forums i regularly visit don't use it, which is a pain in the ass!

I find browsing on an iPhone 4 is great on standard vBulletin, the only grip is the 'Go to new posts' button on the forum view is a bit small
edit: that one
