Support for TouchBB Forum Browser?

#1 Post by anton » Tue Oct 20, 2009 4:34 am

Would it be possible for you (the admins) to install a phpBB add-on script that provides TouchBB support? It would allow people to browse the forum using the TouchBB Forum Browser on the iPhone. The add-on can be downloaded here:

Cheers,

Your wish is my command! :)

I have installed the script, and you can now "easily" interface with swingdjs.com via your iPhone. I use quotes because it does lack some nice functionality, such being able to only see new posts since your last visit.

Download the iPhone app here ($0.99 version) or here (free version). Let me know if you can tell the difference between the free and $0.99 versions of the app - I can't from the descriptions.

When accessing the forum via this app, you will need to type on the full url: www.swingdjs.com/phpbb2

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Jesse

Works great for me as well. I am posting this from my iPhone. I only mention this because it looks like one of the only differences with the paid version is you don't get the "Posted with TouchBB on my iPhone" at the end of your posts.

Just wanted to let you know that I have been keeping up with the TouchBB script updates.

In the future I will try to post here when I do so just to make sure you are aware when changes have been made.

Browsing through old threads in "Technical Questions", I was reminded about this mobile browsing script. For those of you who enjoy browsing the board on your iPhone (not sure this works for other mobile devices), I just upgraded to the latest version of TouchBB.
