Navigating and reading is pretty much a nightmare so I tend not to even try generally, but I came across an App named Tapatalk which seems as though it would reformat things into a more manageable format. Has anyone used this or something similar, or are there plans on the horizon for the site to be optimised for mobiles? I'd love to second the request to support Tapatalk, its a great way to stay in touch with forums via tablets & mobiles. |

Tapatalk is great. I use it on other boards. Supposedly it is very easy to set up and enable on the server, according to the moderators at one of the other boards I frequent.

I'm in the process of planning our move to a newer release of IP.Board that will provide quite a few usability benefits along with proper support for modern devices, specifically Android and iOS browsers.
This isn't going to be a rapid change over as I've just started to prepare for it but if the testing I'm doing at the moment shows no issues then it should be something that you can all expect in the next month or two. It isn't a big job to be honest but it is a major change and if it goes wrong then rolling back could be painful, especially if the issues are subtle so I want to test the upgrade in isolation and then bring up a test copy of the board running under the new code for "user acceptance testing" for a week or two before we do the upgrade for real. I'm also a fan of Tapatalk and the upgrade will support it at no additional cost to us ( which is a factor ) so I already had that down for evaluation on my own list. With a compatible version of IP.board Tapatalk support is simple to install, unfortunately the board version we're running on isn't support and Tapatalk support have indicated they aren't going to write it so it can only be installed after we upgrade. |

Wow that is awesome, thanks! |
