Hi, im pretty new here, but noticed that BLF does not appear in tapatalk, so i seached and saw it might be because it runs on drupal. It this still the reason ?
i read that they are going to create a plugin over here:
It very much helps browsing on smartphone or tablet, it syncs between devices where you stopped in a thread, so when you read on ipad for example, and stop after a few pages, and pick up your android phone, you can read on where you left off.
Also it removes the clutter wich you see when browsing forums on a small screen, you have the whole screen to read the thread.
Couple of years ago i did t like it either, since about a year it has become my first choise for reading forums, even on ipad air.
At some point I need to bite the bullet and upgrade BLF to the next major version of Drupal, which does appear to be minimally supported by Tapatalk. It’s going to be a huge investment in time to do the upgrade, which is why I’m putting it off and dreading every minute of it. But eventually I’ll have to do it, and after that we’ll probably have Tapatalk. Meanwhile, thanks for your patience!
I do use the forum on pc on content consumption, but for content creation, i take pics on phone then upload it directly using tapatalk. I tend to go lazy to image uploading and linking. Or is there an easier method to
Yes, I don’t plan on any major feature upgrades to BLF whenever I upgrade to the new version. The upgrade isn’t for new features, but rather is necessitated by the fact that the version we’re running now will eventually stop getting security updates, making it possibly vulnerable to hackers in the future after it stops being supported.
Actually there’s no way for anybody on any device to upload pics here (except for me with my super powers. ) It would cost a fortune in bandwidth for BLF to host all the images we show here, so we just rely on 3rd party image hosting services.
Personally if I use the phone to take pictures I then attach it to my computer with a USB cable. That way I can easily use the computer to upload a batch of images onto the internet.
