Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Tapatalk Signature ("Sent from my...") Remover for VB3 & VB4

Brought to you by BirdOPrey5
www.Qapla.com

Version 1.1 - Updated to work with Tapatalk AND Tapatalk 2.

Tapatalk (www.tapatalk.com) is an add-on for vBulletin to allow uses with iPhones, Droids, Blackberrys, and other smart phones to easily view and post on your forum.

However Tapatalk has one annoying feature- It adds a "Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk" message at the end of each message if the user posting has enabled this feature.

NEW - As of April 2016 Tapatalk no longer allows Admins with free accounts to shut off the signatures from users using Tapatalk. This mod has become useful again.

This mod will hide or replace at your option all of the "Sent from my X using Tapatalk" messages giving you a cleaner looking forum.

At your option you can also replace the signature with something else, perhaps a small image or a link or whatever you want, HTML is allowed in the replacement.

This works for VB 3.7, 3.8, 4.0.x, 4.1.x and 4.2.x versions of vBulletin.

Full instructions in zip file.

Hi BirdofPrey - great mod...working perfectly for me. I used your substitute .gif and like it. Only issue I'm having is a couple of my members are using Tapatalk 2 (think it's a beta release?). So the substitute ends up looking like:

2

Is there a quick xml edit I can do to get rid of the numeral?

[BirdOPrey5]

hmmm...

You know you can disable sigs now via tapatalk settings on their site?

But to answer your question find the line:

   $find = "#Sent from my ([\w _-]+) using Tapatalk#";

And change it to:

   $find = "#Sent from my ([\w _-]+) using Tapatalk[ 2]*#";

Try that. If it doesn't work give me a link to one of these posts on your forum.

Worked perfectly - thank you sir!

Is there a way to change the position to appear the message?
Example, if I want to appear befor the signature, it is possible?
Thanks

Can you please "Mark as Installed" - that would be the biggest thanks.

As for moving the location- no- this simply finds the text in the post and removes it. It wouldn't be possible with this mod to move the location.

I am kind if surprised anyone still uses this mod though- it was created back when Tapatalk didn't give the option of disabling the "Sent By" message - Now they do- All admins can go to their Tapatalk control panel and disable the "Sent by" message from there for all new posts.

Mark as Installed
Nice Idea & Work

Like I said BOP - it's kind of a nice way to continuously let folks know that your site is 'Tapatalk-enabled'. That's the only reason I haven't disabled it.

Updated to Version 1.1 to deal with the "Tapatalk 2" issue. :up:

Simple and effective - I like!

Annnd for some reason it does not work. product is enabled, left blank to remove the entire signature of tapatalk, and yet I see it appearing normally in posts/threads.
