I remember that Taptalk had lots of security issues in the past. Not sure if they are fixed, but it is good idea to check it first before taking it to use.

Tapatalk is a third party extension and not supported at all by phpBB, the extension did not even pass phpBB's own verification. In the past it has also been linked to significant security breaches on phpBB installations.

No wonder why some forums explicitly tells that Tapatalk either disabled or not supported.

For chit-chat is better to use FB group. Discussion in depths aren't really for phone screens. So better to use computer for forum.

I hate tapatalk, I don't need or want an additional nag screen every time I view the forum telling me to install some sort of proprietary extension.

Hi, there!
Do you guys know how to set up the forum to be accessed from the Tapatalk app?

Thanks!
