Ooooo hello...  :notworthy:

Right it's playing up again.

I can connect to any forum except this one.  :confused:

It's not the App or the internt so it must be the Forum. Are their changes happening in the background which are stopping it working. All I get is "connecting to forum" and it just sits there with the spinning gear icon.

I need to update the plug in, give me 10 mins, the server might need a quick reboot.

Latest version of the server client installed  :happy2:

Still not working  :sad1:

The forum is hit and miss tonight though. Sometimes it loads straight away and others it doesn't.

Something is definitely wrong. This is the only forum that will not work. I mean at all now. It hasn't done so for about a week and it's not the app as it works on all other forums.  :sad1:

Remember to make sure geotagging is turned off with Tapatalk. I have seen peeps on other forums with "I am here" Tapatalk sigs and it shows the complete address. Very naughty!

Also having issues with just this forums, fault on phone says this:

"This forum is either restricting access from tapatalk or the installed tapatalk plugin is not working"

Just use the browser then! I gave up using Tapatalk ages ago as it's no quicker than just going to the site normally with Safari...
Title: Re: Tapatalk HD App
Post by: rich83 on March 24, 2012, 10:02:26 am
I use it because it's probably less data intensive than the website.
Title: Re: Tapatalk HD App
Post by: vRS Carl on March 24, 2012, 03:16:23 pm
That's the reason I use it  ( or try to at the moment  :grin:) :happy2:
Title: Re: Tapatalk HD App
Post by: simonp on March 24, 2012, 05:40:29 pm
Use Opera instead of Crapatalk if you wanna reduce data usage. It's free for a start...

I don't care if folks wanna use Tapatalk but it gets irritating to constantly read the Tapatalk sig on every post - It's blatent advertising which interrupts our conversations.

Can Tapatalk users switch this feature off? And, if so, would this forum be willing to insist that users do?

Folks wouldn't like it if all my posts ended with the words:

"Sent from RedRobin's quadcore 27" iMac" etc!

It can be turned off, yes.

How do you do that?

Tapatalk is way quicker than safari, It works quickly when not on 3g/wifi, where as safari takes forever downloading images etc. Plus you can customise the menu bar.

However... pointless right now as it doesn't work.

....As long as this forum's server is working as it should, I don't experience any slow image downloads via Safari on my Mac system and internet provider.

They're talking about their sheep phones and panty pads, I expect, RR. Forum is plenty fast on my non-iOS phone with unlimited data package. :evilgrin:
Title: Re: Tapatalk HD App
Post by: vRS Carl on March 24, 2012, 06:49:13 pm
The forum is fast enough on Safari but only if you have WIFI or 3G. However Tapatalk works better for slow GPRS connections which is why I use it. If this forum had a mobile version then I wouldn't use it. But only one of the forums I use has a mobile version so I use Tapatalk for when I only have a GPRS signal.

The signature is easy to turn off. It's in the settings.

Steve,

Any chance you could check the server client as even with the latest App neither Tapatalk or Tapatalk HD work on this forum.
Title: Re: Tapatalk HD App
Post by: SteveP on March 29, 2012, 04:21:53 pm
Server client is running the latest version and is reporting to Tapatalk servers as working correctly.

When I have some time I will take a proper look.

Ok the iPhone app works very slowly but the iPad app does not work at all. Just sits saying connecting to the forum and I left it saying that for 30 mins earlier.

It's only this forum though otherwise I'd delete the app.

I get this from time to time so I kill the app (double tap home button) and if that doesn't work I then log in on the site via safari and then try and all is normally good then. There was an update for it released the other and I haven't had any trouble since.
