New issue I’m seeing is the link to Twitter. I have to have Twitter running in background while on Tapa for links to work. Otherwise Tapa asks me to login and then says there’s already a user with my login information when I use my login info.

    Goddamn it, using the browser on the phone for this site sucks.

    I've submitted a ticket which they haven't responded to and posted on their help board, which they asked about the ticket rather than helping. I fucking hate them

  • It’s just not.  I’ve gone to browser a half dozen times and always go back to tapa.

I click on twitter link via tapa....asks me to log in. I have to close twitter page (on tapa)...close Twitter app, open twitter app....click on twitter link on tapa and then twitter link on tapa works. Annoying as fuck

Same.

if on android, set chrome (or whatever your browser is) to open twitter links.  i assume you can do the same on iphone with safari.  twitter works fine in browser.

I got a new phone and tried to find surly on tapa. It says cant be found/network error. It seems to be a tapa issue but has anyone found a work around? On the plus side I was able to reset my password finally on the website so kuddos to Imma and BL on that.

Honestly I don’t. It could be the app version. I’m on 8.8.5.

I’m still rocking 7.2 until it becomes crash-a-talk.

I get an error, but maybe not the same one on timeline, but hardly ever get it for unread or participated. Usually a simple refresh works. If not Clear cache. Turn off video and pic previews in settings then try again.

Anyone have the thing where it removes posts you know exist towards the bottom of a thread?

Mine will occasionally go say Op-#16, #22, #23, #22, #23. Almost always that same pattern of repeating last 2 posts of a thread when there’s missing content. Have to close the ap and relaunch.

Only shows once for me and correctly numbered. Maybe you should revert to an older version.
Does “unread” ever work for anyone on TAPA?

Occasionally. I’d say I get that error message 80% of the time

On Unread I either see "None" (despite not looking at most threads) or this:

This is the only site that does this. I’ve tried original Tappa, Tappa pro, old Tappa, new Tappa, delete and reinstall, delete cache, south Austin’s mom, all of it.

Go to front of Tapa (before choosing surly) and find your settings. Turn off content preview. It’s something in there consuming memory. Probably has to do with how many of the last comments had images

Wow.

Did this closed app completely came back and then it appears to be fixed.

Yeah, stopped working for me now too. When I first did it, everything loaded super fast, but no more. Some sort of memory leak where over time it just degrades. Clear cache doesn’t help.

Unplug the tapa, wait 30 seconds, then plug it back in

I’m just passing on what he said. It would be nice if it worked but not end of the world.

At least now it can be reported and they can’t punt w that excuse

It is all levels of fucked up right now on mobile. Tapatalk shit is overlapping the google ads giving you a few pixels to click to get rid of all of that shit. It’s like fucking MySpace 2002. .

Notice the screen is greyed out? You can’t click on the login button because the screen is being bkicjed by the tapatalk bullshit which the button to close is being blocked by the ad. 

I'm still using 7.4.3 (only as a very occasional backup when Chrome is fucked up for whatever reason) but now in Chrome I'm starting to get a "view in Tapatalk or continue with Chrome" pop up every now and then whenever I open a thread. 

It's as annoying as everything else about Crapatalk, and I wish it would stop, but I don't really give much of a shit either way - just figured that maybe this might provide a clue for solving other more pressing Crapatalk problems.

Again, not the most pressing issue, but here's a screen capture of this occasional nuisance. All I did was tap on the star to take me to the first unread post and it gave me this unwanted option. 

Fucking Tapatalk.
