Just upgraded the Tapatalk add-on to the latest version. I've left my phone at home today so I can't test it to see if it's working still ... The new version is supposed to have some bug fixes for search and mod features. Also, the tag feature (@username) had apparently been removed in a previous version, but has been added back in this version ...

I'm on Tapatalk now, and it is working fine. This forum has always had the best support for the tapatalk features, tied only with the android users forum I read.

I eventually gave up on the spoiler add-on we had been using so far and replaced it with another one.

Spoiler

It's slightly less ugly ...

Have installed a twitter feed box, currently it's on the front page of the forum in the sidebar on the right.

Have fixed my "With all watched threads ..." add-on.

Also, I'm reading that a new version of Xenforo (1.2) might be installed on the xenforo.com forum early next month. Then there is a testing phase before it becomes available to customers, but I'm guessing/hoping it will be some time this summer. I'm pretty excited!

 

[Second Summer]

Will be upgrading the forum software, starting in about 15 minutes. The whole operation is expected to take less than 10 minutes.

Edit: Done, things are back to normal, but with less bugs supposedly.

I went to click on What's New? as usual and clicked on Spy accidentally. It's a stalker feature! Just like on VB! Nifty!

I was actually wishing lately that this board had some kind of real time "spy" feature. I like it.

 

[Second Summer]

Glad you like it! I installed it last night just before bedtime so didn't have time to "log" it here. When I looked at it though, nothing was happening ... I think the feature is perhaps more helpful for bigger boards with more traffic, but maybe it's not totally useless here either.

Quick question.
In SPY...are posts made in The female only sections visable to male members and vice versa?
What about VIP posts to non members?

 

[hungryraccoon]

What is the spy feature? :s I'm on my phone.

It shows you what posts are being made in real time, by which members, in which threads and forums. Whenever there's a new post, it will pop up at the top of the page. It includes links, so if you want to see the entire post, just click on the thread link and you'll be taken to that post.

 

[Alice-Bee]

Its showing people reporting posts too...just sayin'

 

[Spang]

Yes, the Spy add-on allows us to see when a post gets reported and by whom.

Not a fan.

 

[Alice-Bee]

Oh I thought it was a glich...shouldnt reporting someone be anon?

 

[RabbitLuvr]

I don't like that.

 

[Second Summer]

Ouch ... I'll look into this in a bit.

 

[Alice-Bee]

And the male>female private postings?

 

[Spang]

And the male>female private postings?

I'll post in the dude-only forum.

 

[Spang]

I see it, but I'm a dude.

 

[Alice-Bee]

Nope cant see it...

I posted in the female forum about an hour ago.

I'll post in the dude-only forum.

Lots of cobwebs.
