Install problems : Options in AdminCP

[Mark Hewitt]

Indeed, I have about 4 spammers trying to register every minute I couldn't deal with that without proper spam protection. This is by far the number 1 concern for me.

I'd also like to see some live examples. The PostRelease website is vague to say the very least!

[Mark Hewitt]

But the majority of those permissions are not needed and I don't want to ask my users for them in the first place.

This aspect basically makes the app completely useless.

[Mark Hewitt]

That doesn't help with it asking for too much info in the first place.

[Mark Hewitt]

Yes but both the vBulletin and Forum Runner pricing packages are just a matter of policy. vBulletin or Forum Runner could change their prices immediately if they so desired. My point is that you have...

For future reference the problems were two. Firstly I'd misspelled my URL in the setup options -doh!

Secondly the app assumes the presence of 'mbstring' within PHP. Running 'yum install...

I no longer see a reason for vBulletin mobile suite to exist any more, when there is a far superior product within the 'company'.

[Mark Hewitt]

Is there any way to cut right down on the information requested - even facebook themselves say people are more likely to install an app if the information requested is minimal.

It's asking...

Thanks!

That's now done but when I go to my app https://apps.facebook.com/motorsportforumscom/ it just says "An error occurred". How can I debug this?

[Mark Hewitt]

Thanks

The install has gone ok (I think), until I reach the very final step in the document. I'm running 4.1.12

4) VB4 ONLY: Configure "Facebook Application Options" in your AdminCP...

[Mark Hewitt]

I already had Forum Runner enabled and upgraded to v4.1.12 and the new plugin took over without a hitch.

I really like the ability to change the header colour, it means users accessing your...

[Mark Hewitt]

But this isn't about branding it's about a free to add feature. Yes users have to pay for the app but it isn't much and the way things are going there will be a lot of vBulletin forums on there.

The iPhone 4 with Retina display has been out since June 2010. It's now February 2012..

[Mark Hewitt]

No joy, the point is that this worked and worked fine for a year until I moved servers, with exactly the same code...

[Mark Hewitt]

I'm sure this will have been covered elsewhere so apologies in advance.

I have some simple code on my showthread.php e.g.

if(something)
$pickembar = "My Text";...
