Glitch in matrix or something more sinister?

Tapatalk did some updates, but did not update the plugin they provide that we use on our forum. Unfortunately it's not something we can fix easily.

The last update for the plugin was years ago.  :facepalm:

I have feedback I have yet to have a chance to look into yet. Unfortunately day job takes priority and typically wipes me out.

They asked to open permissions, and I actually reduced permissions.

I was able to browse but I did not try to login.

the normal version forced me to follow a forum to even get to search options... MTO was not one of the options  :facepalm:

Pro still seems to work.

If it works for you guys I'll consider it closed.

There was slight improvement, the list Of threads is loaded but I cannot open a thread to read posts. It keeps stuck loading.
I tried to log out and log in again but it didn’t help.
I have the latest version of app. If you say that Pro version works I can try and purchase it.

Yeah seems to be working for me.

Installed the app, signed in and posted. Even more ads than before. Painful.

Actually not. I didn't understand the pattern, but only some threads load and number of them not. Not ideal.

I checked a few different boards and filters (new posts, unread etc) and everything is identical to my browser.

:think:

Maybe flush the application cache on your device

I didn't try beyond getting current threads to display which is already leap years past no connection at all.

Other than that I didn't need to change any configuration anywhere, strikes me as odd some things work only for some, normally it should be working for all or for none, not halfway. :facepalm:

Oh man! So happy it’s working again. Not completely, but at least I can post again.

Still not really working for me on android. Threads either don't load or take for-ev-er. Hopefully back to normal for me soon.

Seeing that problem also. But it’s getting better every day…

I think that is a question for Tapatalk.  We keep trying to play nicely with them and they keep changing stuff around on us.

Since no new updates to the forum side plug-in in the last 3 years I don't know what else we can do. Can you try removing and reinstalling the app on your devices?

I still find it bizarre that it works only for some people and not all or none

We could update our forums to smf 2.1 and get the newer plug-in, but I expect that will break a million other little things that I'm not ready to take on just yet. If I need to choose, I'd rather it be tapatalk only not working 100%

Even after reinstall it, it wont work properly. I have given up it working 100% like it use to work. Some topics loads fast and some topics it takes forever to load but i have been using mobile site now more and more, sure its bit annoying to resize pics or use flickr for pics but mostly its easier to work that way than hoping Tapatalk will start working.
After Tapatalk updated something on their software on june/july it started to making hiccups on forum but first it didnt work at all but now its somehow working and i know that updating forum software is pain in the ass to get working like it suppose to work.

Since Tapatalk stopped functioning properly i changed to mobile version since i can post pictures without needing resizing them.
