    I believe they were referring to the COVID-19 virus going away and maybe possibly some slight apprehension to fear of the unknown. I think new forum software is a great idea, especially when you consider that IHUK gives this place to us for completely free. I am excited to see what the new platform will be like.  Thanks a lot Alex.  🙂

      @Fadez:


      How you tag someone on Tapatalk. The @ plus name is coded different in the app. Using this button will allow a proper tag.

      [mention]Kasi [/mention]
      [mention]SKT [/mention]

      [mention]Fadez [/mention] I’ve also had trouble tagging people using Tapatalk on the iPhone.  Let’s see if this one goes through.

            It works if you’re in Tapatalk, but not on a browser version. In other words, equally useless.

              So, it looks like the tag works when viewing within the app but not on a web browser.

                I’m not sure it even works in the app. When [mention]Fadez [/mention] tagged me above, it didn’t notify me anywhere.

                Also, is using tapatalk frowned upon?  I access the forum on my phone and the web version is challenging to navigate through a browser for me but I do it when I need to tag someone.

                  It work in the app using your method…  also in browser as well

                  In a different way..

                    I only use the the browseron my phone.  @Fadez ‘s are never right, as are those of others.  His are the only ones I’ve noted by name though.  So @neph93 is correct, useless.  I quit Tapatalk years ago. Reading posts was easier but all the functionality stunk.

                      It isn’t. But this is one of the main reasons for the migration. The forum is great (if archaic), on a desktop browser. But that does not work very well on a phone.

                      Tapatalk works on a phone but loses functionality. It also lags horribly at times, crashes, throws hissy fits and is generally a bit pop. So it serves a function but only just.

                      The hope for the migration is that we will end up with a more seamless mobile/desktop interface with parallel functionality.

                        Definitely does have problems Tapatalk like you said….

                        It very annoying

                        But sometimes you go with what it is…

                        Even it a great idea moving onto a better platform will be better for the future to come..

                        A lot of forum members know what I mean.

                          The forum is absolutely perfect on Google Chrome. I do get the occasional pants down every once in a while.

                          The only thing I wish for is the ability to resize pictures on the fly (without knowing BB code), maybe code that automatically removes the image in a quoted post. And possibly larger or higher resolution avatars. I have an 8k phone screen and everything is super tiny… I know people told me to get a life, but it's be nice if it was impossible to accidentally mark everything as read too. I do this very often.

                            I tag neph93 came out like this on the browser
                            mention]neph93 [/mention]..

                            So it’s mean two different level…

                            Tagging in Tapatalk is not the same as in the browser

                              I applaud whatever efforts y’all can make to get me out of using Tapatalk. It’s a stinky turd.

                                Oooh, I have some ideas!

                                I am always annoyed with Tapatalk's tagging-people incompatability (with web) but it does a couple of things really well that I miss when I'm using a computer.

                                One of the things that I love about Tapatalk is that I can very quickly scan through the timeline.  That is, I can see all posts across all threads in chronological order.  I know that this feature exists on the current forums, but it took me like 7 years to find LOL.  Making its placement more obvious would be handy to people who want to catch up with the day's posts, especially for new members.

                                Another of my favorite Tapatalk features lets me subscribe to folders or threads and quickly see any posts just to those.  Call them favorites or something similar.  Going along with my previous suggestion, it would make it easy for people to catch up with their favorite topics.

                                Blanket-line all the things!!!

                                  Because I’m thick I can never figure out how to imbed videos into a post.  Would it be possible to add a toolbar like the one on my text message app on my iPhone so you can go right to YouTube or photos or a more broad range of emoji to the post area?

                                    +1 to the points made by @Paul9221  These are some useful features I’d like to see in the future forum.

                                        Embedding videos will be a possibility on the new platform. It is a ball ache currently. You have to upload to YT or the like, and link.
