ClemsonJeeper Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 File Name: Forum Runner - IP.Board For Your Mobile DeviceFile Submitter: ClemsonJeeperFile Submitted: 07 Sep 2011File Category: ApplicationsIntroducing Forum Runner for the iPhone/iPad/Android!What is Forum Runner? Forum Runner is an IP.Board application that allows your users to browse your forum using a native Android/iPhone/iPad client. This means faster access for those users since it only downloads the actual forum information rather than all the extraneous images that slow down the mobile connection. Forum Runner is FREE for forum owners to install, and takes less than 5 minutes. The client for the iPhone/iPad/Android costs 1.99$ which is LESS THAN THE COMPETITORS, and has more features. Please see the list below for full information on Forum Runner's features. Forum Runner inherits all the security built into IP.Board, so users running Forum Runner will only be able to see the same forums and threads as they could using a regular browser.Forum Runner Feature List Native Android/iPad/iPhone support iOS 4 multitasking support Browse your favorite forums in an easy-to-use-interface with multiple notification types (private message, subscription, etc) Fully customizable home screen with your favorite forums FREE PUSH NOTIFICATION SUPPORT : Get private message and subscribed thread updates from your favorite forums in the background!

Luis Manson Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 EDIT, it says i dont have the permission to read...on any topic
Luis Manson Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 jesus, two captchas on your support site and only for english people!?!
ClemsonJeeper Posted September 8, 2011 Author Posted September 8, 2011 Luis, yeah. We still get 3-4 spammers a day through all the spam protection we've put on the site, unfortunately. Please be patient with us as this is a 1.0.0 release and we fully expect there to be bugs which we will iron out. I have responded to your PM, Luis.
hakeem Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Hi after register:i don't see IP.Board type in Add New Forum --> Install Plug-In ??
ClemsonJeeper Posted September 8, 2011 Author Posted September 8, 2011 Try now, I was debugging something temporarily. Should be ok now.
ClemsonJeeper Posted September 8, 2011 Author Posted September 8, 2011 Updated to 1.0.1 to fix a small error with IP.Board 3.2.x and thread reading.
♥ Adam ♠ Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Will this work a side with Tapa Talk ? I already use it and members have already paid for it. But I am willing to provide options, provided this will not conflict.
ClemsonJeeper Posted September 9, 2011 Author Posted September 9, 2011 Will this work a side with Tapa Talk ? I already use it and members have already paid for it. But I am willing to provide options, provided this will not conflict. Yup, works fine together. There are thousands of forums that run both add-ons to give their users a choice which to use.
Claudia999 Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 EDIT, it says i dont have the permission to read...on any topic I have an error message in my board with IPB 3.1.4 on any topic: "Darstellungsfehler (German) The remote server sent a unknown response. This could be a result of the forum software plugin being outdated..." I downloaded the plugin for my board 1 hour ago from IPB.

This could be a result of the forum software plugin being outdated..." I downloaded the plugin for my board 1 hour ago from IPB. What forum is it, and what are you doing when you get this error? I will need to reproduce it to debug it further.
Timberwolf1771 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Hey Clemson. So far, I like this a lot. The only thing that I see right now, when you go to the "Other Apps" drop down and click on Forum Runner it brings you to the Admin Control Panel.
Crystal V Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 My emoticons and custom bbcode are showing strangely in Forumrunner. HTML will show for the emoticons (e.g. img src='http://mysite.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)') and the bbcode will just show the whole bbcode (e.g. [ hide ] stuff here [ /hide ]). I'm on 3.1.4 and my images are displayed on a different sub-domain, if that makes any difference.

I'm on 3.1.4 and my images are displayed on a different sub-domain, if that makes any difference. For some reason, I'm not getting email updates on this thread... *confuse*. Sorry about the issues. Can you PM me the link to your site, so I can take a look into it further? It likely is a simple fix.
