vBulletin Mobile

Josh,

Have you checked this out yet?

Yep! I'm planning to upgrade to vBulletin 4 this winter and vB Mobile will either be implemented as part of the upgrade or shortly thereafter.

No more wapping?

No more wapping?

The mobile suite would ideally replace the wap site but I think both could run side by side.

[OreoGaborio]

s-ok, wapping off at work has kinda lost its appeal. Doesn't turn me on like it used to.

You can use Tapatalk right now.

[OreoGaborio]

meh. Tried it on bberry & didn't like it at all.

i'd like to switch away from TappaTalk.
after some reading, i learned that they collect all the traffic. so any page visits dont show up on the forum's stats.
they also do some other sketchy stuff that i've read about

Admit it, you just like wapping.

[OreoGaborio]

It's most fun when you're in public.

[ThisBitch]

I hate taptalk. I just end up going to the regular site because the layout is so much better.

[SRTie4k]

I always have connection problems with Tapatalk. Besides, a free mobile implementation is better than having to pay for an app.

[reiobard]

very excited about this, love NESR, hate Tapatalk, and wap has limited layout.

So like... when's this comin out?

Clearly, when the denizens of NESR donate the $199 to the guy with the mortgage and 3 kids who pays for the place.

While I'm sure frankenfuck appreciates you stickin up for him, he already said it's going to be part of the upgrade. I'm just wondering if he knows when it will happen

We forum admin types have to help each other out in the relentless pursuit of donations.

Plus, the man just had an operation involving his testicles. Hook 'em up with some beer money.

Thanks bro.

It's not part of the upgrade, but the upgrade is a prerequisite. The vbulletin mobile suite is another $200 but it will come out of advertising revenue.

I won't say no to beer money, especially after my plumbing reconfiguration.

josh, are we on the new mobile site now, or am I viewing the new vBulletin site for PC's (from my iPad)?
Is there a way to have the shortcut go to the last post like before? I don't see it anymore.

This is the main site, there's no mobile site yet. Shortcut to the last post is in one of the columns to the right of the thread title.

[Jim]

Found it, thanks.
The main site looks quite mobile friendly, similar to the YAF format.
Will the mobile site be a different URL, like WAP? Or is the code smart enough to device a mobile device and redirect to the mobile page/theme?

I'm not sure. The more I read about it the more it seems like its not what I thought it was. It's a whole mobile app publisher not just a mobile style.

[Frankenstein]

Good news I think, vbulletin just changed the licensing so we can get the premium mobile style without buying the mobile suite. This is good because the mobile suite is 200 bucks and then 99/year maintenance on top of fees to google and apple if we wanted to create and publish apps. That's definitely not something I wanted to get into so I was having trouble justifying the costs. I will get this installed on the test site and post some screenshots this week.
