Ads in Tapatalk should now be turned off. Sorry, didn't know it was on by default.
Oh that is nice, thanks! The ads appeared only recently for me after a tapatalk 2 upgrade. They aren't bad; they are small and often (creepily) stuff I've shopped for or searched online.

Edit: I thought vv would get some revenue from that though, that's why I didn't care. I don't need to help tapatalk, I don't think. [emoji4]

We may have been able to get some revenue, but it would have been very little. I might have to turn it back on in the future, if that was OK with you, the members. I've promised to keep the website/VV ad-free, though! I don't like the idea of going back on my word.

I don't see many ads now days, since I got adblocker....I got it because of all the **** religious ads on VB.

The ads on tapatalk seem small and unobtrusive, and no meat ads or anything; I didn't know you had said that about ads, I thought a little revenue could be picked up that way.
 
I've just updated the Tapatalk add-on to the latest version. There are a couple of bug-fixes. One fix says it can now handle displaying threads where the OP's account has been deleted. Not sure to what extent that has affected us, but should in any case work now.
 
Feedback: The 'Ignore Member' functionality is blissful. Fortunately, it is a rarely used feature that I have only recently employed - but it really does the trick. Big thumbs up on that. For those of you who find yourself doing this :bang: I urge you to try it out. I think it secretly teleports idiots to another dimension where they are forced to listen to themselves babble on endlessly in circles until their ears bleed. After which they are ball-gagged and thrown into a swamp of bull's ****. Yes, I'm quite certain that is exactly what it does.

:p
 
Are the pictures in the upper right hand corner a new feature?
Yes, something I'm just testing out at the moment though. They are picked randomly from certain forums. It seems the links don't work correctly - if I click one of the images I'm not taken to the correct post. I've reported the problem to the developer so we'll see.

Personally, I find then distracting. They just don't seem to "fit" there.
 
Apparently, my outdated iPhone 4S can't accommodate the Tapatalk upgrade because I can't upload photos anymore. It keeps prompting me to download the upgraded version but I don't have that option. I need iOS 7 or later.
 
And now the edit feature is gone...WTHeck?! I need the edit option. :sob:
 
OK, I've increased the time limit for editing posts to 3 days.

That sucks ... Is accessing VV through your phone's browser an option?
 
It is. I prefer Tapatalk because its simpler to use with the phone. But I do use Safari when I need to. :)

Edit: (haha)
I mainly use the edit feature to fix auto correct issues after hitting "post" so if I am going to edit it is almost immediate. Thanks! :)
 
The links on those 3 random images in the top right now work properly. The add-on developer very kindly took my feedback and fixed the issues.

Noted. There might be something I can do to make them "fit in" better.

Well on my PC, the pictures overlap the sign in button. Maybe if there was space/margin between them, it would look better.

But in the grand scheme of things, it's no big deal.
