Morning all & Happy Christmas.

Martin, I don't know if its possible on phpBB..but is there any chance of adding Tapatalk support to the forum to help mobile access.

P.S. Sorry if this has already been discussed.

Or perhaps to forumrunner....

Would be good, and costs nothing.

Neither Forumrunner nor Tapatalk support the software used here

You can use TouchBB though

I had to google it, found it, installed it, not overly impressed by it, still finding my way around it, but a little limited, shows the forum in a more raw format, so you seem to lose members avatars, emoticons, will persevere

They are smartphone apps that allow easier access/posting on forums without having to resort to the native web browser on the phone.

The problem been the forum doesn't support them, so unless the forum was totally redone,I don't think it would be possible, then you have the issues were could old posts be imported from old format to new without losing them, then there is the cost involved, which is not only money but time to do it

Saying that I am not involved in the programming or running side of things, so it could also be straight forward

then you could say it's a Internet forum, not a mobile Internet forum

Works fine for me on my HTC running Android. If I want to do anything complicated I'll use a PC.

It works fine for me with the Web browser on my Blackberry or on my Mac, but that's not the point.

Many forums I frequent use a mobile for access which are better if you are out and about.

They allow posting direct and linking and posting pictures direct from my mobile rather than having to muck about with multiple programs or apps. They are also quicker.

What most surprises me is that one forum is run on phpBB software like this is and has Tapatalk support
