stevegrant Posted 2 July, 2019 Posted 2 July, 2019 Afternoon all. A long-overdue software update is being installed tomorrow at some point (probably mid-morning), so there may be a brief period of downtime. I'll keep it as brief as possible.
It's There Posted 2 July, 2019 Posted 2 July, 2019 Thank you for the advance notice and thanks for all you do on this website etc.
Hamilton Saint Posted 2 July, 2019 Posted 2 July, 2019 Thank you for the advance notice and thanks for all you do on this website etc. Ditto!

Anyway, looking forward to the new and improved TSF Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Would you believe that when SaintsForever closed I bought the domain saintsforum. So I credit myself for them calling it 'The Saints Forum.' That's right. I'm responsible for 'The.' My greatest achievement in life. Then the bastads renamed it saintsweb.
Fatboy40 Posted 3 July, 2019 Posted 3 July, 2019 We finally getting a "Thanks" option to stop all the muppets reposting a message just to say that they agree with it?

stevegrant Posted 5 July, 2019 Author Posted 5 July, 2019 So that update didn't actually happen on Wednesday in the end, for various reasons. I'll get it done either tonight or at some point over the weekend. Don't think there's any big news due, so should be fairly safe
stevegrant Posted 5 July, 2019 Author Posted 5 July, 2019 OK, update installed. Everything seems to be OK - if anyone spots any technical issues, please let me know.
Micky Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 Will do Steve, many thanks. Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk
SuperSAINT Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 OK, update installed. Everything seems to be OK - if anyone spots any technical issues, please let me know. Does the update fix MLG’s pedantry?
Toadhall Saint Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 When I refresh it doesn’t recognise that I have read a thread I’m using Tapatalk
stevegrant Posted 5 July, 2019 Author Posted 5 July, 2019 When I refresh it doesn’t recognise that I have read a thread I’m using Tapatalk You may need to log out and log back in again. The update we've applied is quite a few versions up from the one that was running previously, so there's been a fair few changes which may have affected session cookies and that sort of thing.
Micky Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 (edited) I have the same Tapatalk issue as Toadhall Steve - have logged out and back in but still shows the same threads as unread. Edit: Scratch that it appears to be ok now. I was also logged in on my main PC when I first tried it, but having logged out on both and rebooted Tapatalk it appears to have rectified the problem. Thanks. Edit 2: Actually - it appears not to be fixed now, PC browser is ok but Tapatalk not keeping up with threads that have been read - got some gremlins somewhere. Edit 3: Definitely an issue with Tapatalk - have deleted the cache, no change. Deleted the data, no change. Uninstalled and reinstalled - no change. I have Tapatalk running on two separate devices (both android) and the same problem is evident. But for now - I'm off to bed...! Edited 5 July, 2019 by Micky

Still no different Steve
SaintsLoyal Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 Did a cookie deletion and seem to have lost the forum favicon its now looking like a V symbol
Fatboy40 Posted 8 July, 2019 Posted 8 July, 2019 What has changed as it looks the same? I think it went from vBulletin 4.2.2 to 4.2.5, so probably just very basic fixes for a few vulnerabilities and no new features.
whelk Posted 8 July, 2019 Posted 8 July, 2019 Tapatalk is nightmare now. Keeps taking back to posts already seen
East Kent Saint Posted 8 July, 2019 Posted 8 July, 2019 All threads highlighted as unread still , logged in/out etc but now have to go by date of reply
hypochondriac Posted 8 July, 2019 Posted 8 July, 2019 Tapatalk is nightmare now. Keeps taking back to posts already seenYes I had to change it so it goes to latest post rather than last unread.
Micky Posted 8 July, 2019 Posted 8 July, 2019 Yes I had to change it so it goes to latest post rather than last unread.Thanks for that workaround. Still not ideal but better than it was after the "up"grade. Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk
Shance Posted 9 July, 2019 Posted 9 July, 2019 Clear your cache and your cookies. Just logging out and in won't change a thing. On another note, Steve, if there's ever another upgrade then can I suggest you look into the software that footballforums.net uses? The like a post function on there is very good and has gone down swimmingly well with the users on there and it cuts down on the posts saying 'agreed' and 'like'.
twopintsnilnil Posted 9 July, 2019 Posted 9 July, 2019 I know it's been mentioned before, but worth remembering that if you're not happy with Tapatalk (I got rid very quickly), you can go to this page in the browser on your mobile and change the style to "Default Mobile Style" in the drop-down box at the very bottom left of the page. Then save it as a shortcut on your home page for quick access. At least on Android. No idea about Apple I'm afraid, but Mr Cook may have deemed you worthy of such a thing I suppose.

(although, I have to say, not many posts saying "like" or "agreed" on this forum...)

Whitey Grandad Posted 9 July, 2019 Posted 9 July, 2019 The tapatalk experience is bloody awful now. Any experts out there? Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk I use a Samsung S8 and I was having some problems. When going to ‘unread threads’ Tapatalk was repeatedly taking me back to a previous point. Following an earlier suggestion I cleared the cache for the Tapatalk app and now it seems to be working properly. Go to settings and the app manager and find the Tapatalk app. Press on ‘storage’ and choose the option to delete the cache.
Fatboy40 Posted 10 July, 2019 Posted 10 July, 2019 The tapatalk experience is bloody awful now. Any experts out there? Only the admins of this forum will know for certain, however maybe there's an underling issue with the Tapatalk plug-in being used... https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/tapatalksupport/tapatalk-for-vbulletin-plugin-release-announcement-t4104.html ... but I've not got the time, or will, to read the whole change log.

Cheers Whitey - I did that a couple of days ago though (post #25), cleared the cache, deleted the data, deleted the app in the end and reinstalled - but non of that worked.

Thanks Fatboy, I'll have a wade through when I get time. I know there are other options for viewing this, but I want to try to stay with Tapatalk if possible because it's much easier to view this on a tablet, and I use Tapatalk for the other forums that I frequent as well.
Jimmy_D Posted 12 July, 2019 Posted 12 July, 2019 Did a cookie deletion and seem to have lost the forum favicon its now looking like a V symbol I've also noticed that, the favicon is the default one now instead of the Saints badge.
Raging Bull Posted 13 July, 2019 Posted 13 July, 2019 Well I don’t use Tap Talk but I have to say it’s really bloody annoying to have the site fitting and jumping around every 10 seconds!
Saint Garrett Posted 15 July, 2019 Posted 15 July, 2019 I seem to have a huge amount of adverts / popups now...?
once_bitterne Posted 15 July, 2019 Posted 15 July, 2019 I seem to have a huge amount of adverts / popups now...? Looks like the update worked then.
East Kent Saint Posted 15 July, 2019 Posted 15 July, 2019 Use adblocker and pop up blocker plus tracker blocker
Whitey Grandad Posted 15 July, 2019 Posted 15 July, 2019 I seem to have a huge amount of adverts / popups now...? I paid for 'Tapatalk HD' a few years ago and then they did an update and all the adverts came back. Not pleased.
The Cat Posted 15 July, 2019 Posted 15 July, 2019 Worth checking out the Brave browser, you can opt out of all ads. I don't get any now.
igsey Posted 23 July, 2019 Posted 23 July, 2019 I have a Saints logo again instead of the V-forum logo
