I have been asked by a member if I could install this on my forum. It doen't look like it will work with UBB. What do you think about it?

It doesn't appear that it works with UBB currently. I know Rick has been wanting to work with different software vendors to extend their software to work with ours, so I'll point him to this topic and have him reach out to them.

I believe he said they were working on a mobile view/theme for version 8

This has been on my users wishlist for quite a while. It'll be nice to deliver when V8 comes out.

I'm sure there will be complete documentation for 3rd party programmers to write plugin's for the UBB too, sure....

Not sure if this was just a sarcastic post or not since I'm still getting to know the regulars here, but I'll add a bit of info.

I'm responsible for the API and I'll be responsible for the documentation as well. The API should be released before version 8 is finished, although it will surely be appended to as time goes on.

Documentation will be fairly easy. If you're using an API then normally you're at least semi familiar with coding so it will be mostly self explanatory. You'll include a master API file, which in turn will include a few libraries. Say you want to log a user into the forum, you'd use our API login function and just looking at the current function you can see we're trying to make these fairly simple to use:

Code
/**
 * Try and log a user in
 *
 * @param string $username Username
 * @param string $password Password
 * @param boolean $remember Remember login
 *
 * returns user_id on success
 * returns an error on failure (NOT_FOUND|UNDERAGE|NOT_APPROVED
 *                              UNVERIFIED_EMAIL,BAD_PASSWORD)
 */
function login($username,$password,$remember='') {
...
}

I've been in discussion with them, and they are interested in collaborating, but not until v8 is out since everything is changing and it would all need to be redone.

This came off an android forum, found it about a month or two ago. Hopefully they fixed it, but also dont think I would use since all info gets passed through them from what i am reading and could be bad on security as well.

We have removed Tapatalk support on AF effective immediately.

The decision comes on the heel of a security risk found in the Tapatalk plugin. We will watch for unusual activity and neutralize any hijacked accounts - but we don't feel anyone has been affected other than an account or two used for "testing" of the exploit.

While we don't see any evidence of account information being compromised - it would not hurt for members to change their passwords should they feel the need. I would recommend it just to be safe.
