Forum Changes

Thanks for adding the "like" option. But it feels like it takes more space? Also still trying to get used to the post icons. I don't get the blue document icon below the avatars… to me it just seems to be adding an extra vertical space and chopping up a bit more than necessary.
It seems to have to do with the post title, but could be removed if there is no title (which is the normal case on a Quick Reply) please.

Tapatalk, we may. but are looking at just doing a native iphone/android app. Personally I have some concerns about allowing a 3rd party direct access to all the member records.

Meanwhile I visit forums mostly with an Android phone - which does not work well with PrintPlanet. What are the options for mobile users? Tapatalk is an excellent tool, by the way.

I use my Android phone to browse this forum with no issues. Google Chrome works pretty well on Androids.

Browsing on Android is OK but not for printplanet.com - either the text column is not wide enough and text is too large or it is the opposite and the text is really tiny. In some threads the size of the text changes for some posts, which is really annoying. Tapatalk is much better for visiting forums.

The platform for PrintPlanet is vBulletin. Unfortunately the site's administrator has had difficulty finding a competent programmer. If you know someone capable then contact Paul White.

As far as I know Tapatalk support can be added to vBulletin using a plugin and that doesn't require any programming skills. It would be nice to have - I'm a moderator on another forum and a good portion of the posts is done via Tapatalk.
