Title: Tapatalk incorporation
Post by: ThinBlueLine on 07/21/2014 04:27 AM

Not sure if this has been brought up but it would be nice to incorporate Tapatalk with cigar geeks;

 Tapatalk is an application (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_software) to allow access to Internet forums (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum) on mobile devices (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_computing),[1] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapatalk#cite_note-1) developed by Tapatalk, Inc.

Tapatalk is primarily designed to provide improved forum access for mobile platforms over access provided by the forum software itself. The application was originally designed for Android (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)) but now also supports iOS (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS) and Windows Phone (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Phone). Tapatalk allows the user to have a unified interface (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) to access multiple forums at the same time.

Forum software systems supported by Tapatalk are: phpBB3 (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhpBB3), vBulletin (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/VBulletin),xenForo (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/XenForo), IPBoard (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPBoard), Simple Machine (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Machine),MyBB (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyBB), bbPress (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BbPress), Kunena, Vanilla (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanilla), andDrupal (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drupal).[2] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapatalk#cite_note-2)

This topic came up a couple of years ago.  According to Paul, "Unfortunately the site isn't running a forum package they support."

I'm not sure if that has changed. :confused:

Understood Nathan, it's more of a selfish request as I find the Tapatalk platform a breeze to navigate and post

I don't think Paul has any problem with site upgrade suggestions, so no worries.

There is another cigar forum that has integrated Tapatalk, and it seems to run smoothly.  I've never tried the app, though. :confused:
