Default Whatsapp Group for Vbulletin Forum Owners/Lovers..

This shall not be a beginner level thing.. but bit more.

You know about your software.. you can install/upgrade forums, migrate yourself, can manage your server.
You can install/upgrade/remove modifications from your forum..

Lets try creating a whatsapp group and see if it works.
Interested people PM me your numbers.. I will suggest not posting here.

If this thread is against TOS kindly remove..Its not for advertisement purpose.
Will appreciate if any moderator/administrators can join this group for quick help etc.
Tried posting on vb.com but lol not a single reply..


Regards.

You seem to be assuming people actually have (or can use) Whatsapp.

Well, he did say it's wasn't for beginners.... (I have no idea what whatsapp is and I'm fine with that. Sometimes ignorance can be bliss.)

It refused to install on my tablet, had to download the ppk file, still says tablets are not supported.

Then the phone number verification was quite tricky, but I finally (I think) got it installed, not tried the PC version which apparently was released at the end of January.

If your tablet has voice calling enabled it should work with apk, if not you can still make it work (a little more tech stuff). "How To Install Whatsapp On Android Tablets Without SIM Card Support" query on google will give you tons of options.

Whatsapp is not available for PC.. whatsapp web client is simply an extension of your phone: the web browser mirrors conversations and messages from your mobile device -- this means all of your messages still live on your phone.
