I forgot to post this up here, if you are using push notifications, you can now configure what push notifications you want to receive (private message, subscription) as well as configure what time during the day you want these notifications sent to you.

So if you don't want to be notified at 3AM that someone posted in a thread you are subscribed to, you can now specify which hours you want notifications sent to you!

You can do this by logging into the Push Notification manager at:

http://www.forumrunner.net/?p=push

and look at the bottom of the page. The settings are there.

1.3.3 has been released:

* Fix issues with "Cyb - Advanced Permissions Based on Post Count" add-on and posting new threads/replies/private messages
* Fix issue with thumbnail display when gd/gd2 is not installed, but imagemagick is
* Fix issue with forums with threads that haven't been updated in a while not showing up
* Fix issue with polling for updates from Home Page updating your last login time
* Add support for different configurable Google AdSense locations

iPhone App Version 1.1.4 has been submitted to Apple with the following changes:

* Add support for making subforums Favorite - to use, simply drill down to the subforum you wish to make a favorite, hit the "Action" button in the upper right corner, and choose "Add to Favorites"
* Added "Help" tab for online help - this will be updated as questions come in.
* Fix various UI Issues
* Add setting "Show Thread Preview" which will allow you to disable thread previews and display more threads per page
* Fix issue with people who declined push notifications just getting a black screen on launch

So if say 10.000 of my users get this iPhone app, you will earn $1.900.00
How much will you pay to my board? Can any % flow back to the site and be used to support the site?

Or you could pay the $249 branding option per year which pays for the work that goes into the app. It gives your community better accessibility also so your community is benefiting from potentially more usage . I think that is payment enough ;)

You can see their branding option here : http://www.forumrunner.net/?p=branding

That's a fair option! Is there an option for forum owners to make money on a branded app?

Thanks.

Im not sure to be honest , best to ask ClemsonJeeper, although that would be an extremely good way to compensate for the yearly costs involved.

Currently, we have Google AdSense support which is a way that forum owners can generate revenue through the app using existing measures.

The branded app is a way for forum owners who don't want their users to have to pay 1.99$ to access their forum (along with all the other Forum Runner forums) to be able to have a custom free app for their users dedicated to their forum.

If you want to charge for your dedicated app, that is your choice, and we can discuss some sort of revenue sharing if you like - you would be the first forum to want a dedicated app that charges their users.

Shoot me a private message if you want to discuss this further!

Thanks for showing an interest in Forum Runner!

Clemson, I just installed the app support on my site. The $2 for the app seemed like a reasonable fee, so I didn't even bother with installing the freebie on my phone. Gotta say that you've got a great start!

I posted a couple of comments on your own support forums. Please bring Social Group support. Everything else seems to be covered.

BTW, how much is the push service?

Version 1.3.5 has been released:

* Fix a few more issues with Arabic forums
* Fix image thumbnail generation issues on forums without libgd/libgd2 installed
