Installation Instruction:

Installation is easy. It does not change any of your forum settings or overwrite any
of your existing forum code and configuration. Simply follow the procedure below:

Step 1

Create yourself an account at http://www.tapatalk.com/plugin.php. Once you have logged in
to the website, you can download the largest version. If you are not sure you are
using the latest version. Download a new one from
http://www.tapatalk.com/download.php. You can follow the rest of the instruction
from tapatalk.com onward if you want. Otherwise read on:

Step 2

Upload the zip package at the root of your forum system.
Unzip the package. You should see a directory called "mobiquo" inside your forum
system root directory. For example, if your forum URL is http://www.mysite.com/forum,
it should be placed at http://www.mysite.com/forum/mobiquo/.


Step 3

Login to Administration Control Panel (admincp) in your server.
Choose "Style Manager" under "Styles and Templates".
Choose "Edit Template" in your current template.
Click "Edit" in your current template
Choose "headinclude" in the list, click "Edit"
At the bottom of the editor, insert the following line:
<script type="text/javascript" src="mobiquo/tapatalkdetect.js"></script>

Okay..I have a question. I have been trying to get this to work on my forum for the past hour. I am not sure if I am uploading in the right place on my server. I'm a newbie so be nice, please? Do I upload it in public_html or forum. I feel so stupid!! Thanks to anyone that can help me.

[basilrath]

Ok follow this

The mobiquo folder needs to sit within the forum structure like this

http://www.yourdomain.com/forum/mobiquo/

make sure you have this set up on your tapatalk members area also for this work corectly!

the rest if you have paths ok should be straight forward

[flirtsnfriends]

Can someone give me an example of the path?

public_html/forum.........

[flirtsnfriends]

Hmmm..just saw your post basil, I think, I am uploading it right but I just uninstalled and will start all over again. I'm just a little confused where exactly to upload in my server as I am new to the server that I'm with and learning my way around. I LOVE this app and sooo want to get it added to my forum.

[CAG CheechDogg]

flirtsnfriends, just make sure it goes in the main forum directory, if you have it named forum it goes in there and it should sit between your misc and modcp folders.

Example of the path would be:

/public_html/community/mobiquo

instead of naming my forums directory "forum" i named it community, if you named yours "forum" it will go in there.

This used to work for me but now I am seeing no posts or forums when going through tapatalk. On the tapatalk site though it shows up fine.

I do have vbseo installed if that matters..not sure why else this would be happeneing. I have tried reuploading the latest files, I reinstalled the plug in, changed permissions.. The other thing I can think of is a mod conflict unless I am missing something.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Richie

Works perfect!

It's a nice add-on for mobile users, but for anyone using this mod, or considering it, there's a bug in how it handles the WOL function in VB4.

The WOL display shows "via Tapatalk" for users logged in using this add-on, but unfortunately when they log out (or session times out), the entry it never gets cleared from the current WOL display. :erm:

We couldn't figure out why we were still seeing entries in the current WOL display going back for days, when the user wasn't on-line. Finally we discovered it's ONLY users who employ this add-on for VB4.

Needs to be addressed as it screws up other members who keep thinking their friends are on-line when they're not.

Regards,
Doug

What is your session time set at? have you tried lowering it?

BTW-It seems to be working now but I see no who's online feature at all..

[BadgerDog]

vBulletin 30 minute session timeout is set and Tapatalk users are stuck on the WOL display for days ...

For some reason, only Tapatalk users are not being logged out... everyone else is fine...

Doug
