So, since I've not been able to find a picture gallery management system for vBulletin that I like, and I've got a couple other mods I'm looking to try, I figured I'd go ahead and start up tapatalk. I'm activating it right now on the demo site. Should be pretty soon when I put it live.

[YankeeFingergasm]

Hellls to the yeah!

[Tack Driver]

What benefits will that have for us?

[0utlaw]

OR to put it another way.......WTF is tapatalk?

[jonastio]

Oh, for crying out loud. Sorry about the stupid e-mail.

[jonastio]

Tapatalk is an application that eases mobile browsing. Supposedly.

[YankeeFingergasm]

Jonas don't let tweedle dee and tweedle dum get your goad.

Well then slacker, why don't we have it already? Geez.

[0utlaw]

Jonas don't let tweedle dee and tweedle dum get your goad.

I reckon I'm tweedle dum cause I really never heard of it, I have never had any problem using the browser on my phone :shrug:

[jonastio]

Okay, I went ahead and enabled it for the main forum. It's live. Mostly because that fucking e-mail forced my hand.

[jonastio]

You can see what Tapatalk is here: http://tapatalk.com/m

[YankeeFingergasm]

I reckon I'm tweedle dum cause I really never heard of it, I have never had any problem using the browser on my phone :shrug:

As much as it's been talked about recently I thought you'd know. It's an app for phones that makes it easier and more user friendly to use.

[rr53]

Help me. I've fallen and can't get up.

[parabellum]

heck yes. I have not been browsing nearly as much as I'd like because it's so hard on my phone. Tt is working like a champ.

Thanks for setting it up!

[Downrange]

Thanks for getting that up and running, Jonas.

[Rumbler]

What is a "phone"?

Does this mean I can stop carrying matches, a blanket, and wet grass, to make smoke now?

I hope so. That damned grass is itchy!:o

[jonastio]

Yes.

[jonastio]

So, now that it's been released, I've got 26 people using Tapatalk so far. Now I kinda feel bad that it took so long.

Well, with Smileys and Tapatalk out of the way, what should I do to the forum next? Get Vince to give me a color palette and change the look?

[Greg Kulbick]

Now I kinda feel bad that it took so long.



As well you should.

[jonastio]

And now, I don't. Fuck all y'all.

Fix picture uploads???

[jonastio]

I changed some stuff last night. Increased the allowable size to 2MB and set the size limits to 800x600.

Edit: It should still auto-resize images that are too large.

Sorry, should have been more clear.

When I hit the little picture button to upload something I can't use the first thing that comes up(the one that used to let me upload multiple pics at the same time). I have to click the little second option at the bottom and upload pics one at a time.

Sorry, I know that's vauge as fuck, but its the best I can do untill I get home. At work I don't even get the first option...

Do you have ANY IDEA wtf I'm talking about?

[jonastio]

Okay, I think I know what you mean. I'll see if that's something I can even fix. Otherwise, I'll start up a trouble ticket with vB.

[jonastio]

Yup. That looks broke. You can work around that by going to the advanced editor by clicking the "Go Advanced" button, and from there you can go to the Attachment Manager which will let you upload multiple files at once.

You have no idea how impressed I am that you were able to take all that semi coherent, non-technical babble and actually find a problem with it....

Well done sir.

[AUfish11]

Tapatalk is working great. CCGF isn't showing up in my feed. Is there a setting I need to adjust?

[jonastio]

What do you mean?

[crawdaddy34]

What do you mean?


Me or AU?

[jonastio]

AU

[jonastio]

Yes. Download the Tapatalk app and then use the link posted earlier in the forum to add it to your tapatalk application.

[crawdaddy34]

I use an iPad. Are tapatalks good for this? Serious question, iPads are so non-user friendly for this site, it's ridiculous.

I can fix this for you.

Step one, shoot the fucking I-pad.

Step two. Redo step one.

[jonastio]

Okay, I've got the external feeds enabled, however since the functionality is unauthenticated, you will only see publicly available threads and posts in the feed. None of the private sections of the forum will show up.

[AUfish11]

AU

The main page for Tapatalk has a "feed" page. I set Tapatalk up to push current posts to my feed page but nothing shows up. It's more useful if you have multiple forums in Tapatalk so you can quickly see what's new.

[jonastio]

A fix should be in place by this evening.

You can select individual main threads and hold it down for a couple seconds. A menu will pop up allowing you to subscribe. This will let you know when something new is posted to the threads you have selected. I hope this helps.

[JMW4570]

Yes. Download the Tapatalk app and then use the link posted earlier in the forum to add it to your tapatalk application.

Which link? I have it installed and can't find it when search for CCGF or capital city gun forum.

[jonastio]

You should have gotten a note in your e-mail about it, but here's a fresh link:

http://tapatalk.com/m?fid=110978&id=4&openinapp=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.capitalcitygunforum.c om%3Fchannel%3Dinvite (http://tapatalk.com/m?fid=110978&id=4&openinapp=http%3A%2F%2Fdemo.capitalcitygunforum.co m%3Fchannel%3Dinvite)

[jonastio]

The fix is in place and functional. You might have to clear your browser cache for it to work, though.

[parabellum]

Tt works as well on an iPad as it does a smartphone. It's really a great app for browsing forums.

Now Craw won't laugh at my spelling because I won't be typing in the web text boxes anymore.

Smh.......

[Tack Driver]

For me, that link doesn't work, and CCGF doesn't come up in an "in app" search.

[SB]

Don't use any spaces when searching for CCGF. Comes right up.
search "capitalcitygunforum" tough to not put spaces in.

Dafuq? There was no error in that.

Of course there is. I just type English.

JUST IN CASE y'all notice anything funky with the forum, I'm working on the "like/dislike" bits being available in tapatalk.

Dislike still works here. I just tested it. You're welcome.

[Dale Gribble]

Yep, he's right.:banana:

[thedishdoc]

The taptalk app banner stays open in my browser on my iPad now when I'm using Safari to go to CCGF.

[FLT]

Yep, he's right.:banana:

No shit it does . ;) :dance:

[GSinadinos]

The tap talk app definitely made browsing the threads easier. It lets you sign in as well (to post under your username), which I thoroughly enjoy. Downloaded it a day or so ago.

[jonastio]

Alright, Tapatalk users. I'm gonna need to update the software here real soon, so in the next day you might have about a 5 to 10 minute outage in availability. I'll prolly do it sometime during the day tomorrow. I'd do it tonight, but I'm wiped out.

[jonastio]

Haven't been able to get to the update yet. I'll try to have it done tomorrow.

[jonastio]

Woo! I got the "like" function to work! You just tap the post, and thumbs-up icon appears in the top bar on the right.

[jonastio]

Alright. Tapatalk plugin has been updated to latest release, and I added in the PHP goodness to get the "like" functionality to continue to work.

[Tack Driver]

This here be the shit.

[jonastio]

You mean now that you finally figured out how it worked?

[Johnny]

Slackass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tack Driver]

You mean now that you finally figured out how it worked?

Don't you have an award and title to assign?

[notcreative]

so even us old guys are supposed to learn this new-fangled "tap/talk, huh?

[jonastio]

It's really only useful if you browse the forum with a mobile device.

I'll do it tomorrow. I've spent the time with the family this weekend. Kiss my butt.

[jonastio]

Another update has come out. I'll try to get it done in the next couple of days.

[Tack Driver]

My tapittytalky thing ain't tap'n or talkin'.

WTF Jonas? Are you just gonna' "Jeffy" this forum or what?

[jonastio]

Maybe the Tapatalk folks know who you are and were trying to spare us the pain.

[Tack Driver]

I bet NSA tipped them off. Bastard.

[jonastio]

Okay. All updated.

[jonastio]

Tapatalk updated to 5.2.1.

[Tack Driver]

Tapatalk updated to 5.2.1.

I'd say "way to stay on top of things", but I'm sure the update has been out for months.

[jonastio]

It's been out only a couple weeks. It's been given enough time for burn-in to make sure they didn't put out a bogus update.

I waited because I care. Ass.

[Bodo]

I waited because I care. Ass.

It's for the kids, right?

[jonastio]

Kids... userbase... sure.

[jonastio]

Okay, the "Like" function works again.

Where is the neg rep? I owe you a few.

.............aaannnndddd another one.

Another Tapatalk patch. They tried to fix the like/thanks bit in this release and still messed it up. I made my own change and it works after patching.

Jonas, you're fretting to much about this. Just scrap Tapatalk, we don't really need it. I don't use it.
