Tapatalk Integration...

Why does Tapatalk claim that there is no interest of the Phorum Development team to provide a plugin? Are both applications too incompatible? What are the issues with their API? Unfortunately, they don't let you see it when you are not a paying member. I am trying to understand better the implications. In any case, it would be very useful to build a bridge to them.

Someone "just" has to build the plugin.
So, go ahead and build it or get someone to do it.

Could you please give some additional input? Do you have their API documentation?

I found this on their forums (May 4, 2010):

Quote
One of the developers from phorum contacted us and was about to start developing but since then we haven't heard anything from them. You may want to check with them in the meantime.

I did get a first part of their api back then but didn't have time to implement that. It wasn't the full api either and it was years ago.

Could I do anything to moderate the situation? May I ask them to provide the missing information?

I neither had time nor do I have it now also its not depending on me.
As told above,
"Someone "just" has to build the plugin.

Would you be able to provide the necessary information? I contacted them but it seems that they will only talk to the Phorum development team. Thanks.

PS: I find it sad that the popularity of Phorum apparently declined based on the poor participation on this forum and that it is barely mentioned outside it. How many people have visited it today for example? There are no announcements, the rest of the development team appears to have withdrawn. And your response is rather vague.

Sorry but you don't need anything from me as I got only outdated api information which doesn't reflect the current one.
You can just register a forum owner account with them and then you directly have full access to the api -> [tapatalk.com] .

PS: And all your whining alone doesn't help if you don't have anything constructive to add beside "do that for what I need and then it will be all fine". I already tried to take your words seriously - and you quickly refrained from what you offered.

Topic closed, everything's said about it and all additional stuff should be discussed in personal mail.
