Forum - Android App
Forum - Android App
Just wondering if anyone found any Android apps that work with this forum? I've looked at a few apps that support PHPBB 3.0 (which i believe is the core framework of the forum) but cant get any of them working.
I know i can open it in my web browser on my phone, and there are web browsers add ons that will probablyrefrsh the page on a timer, but if there is a native app out there, It would just useful to have so we can all keep up with the conversation when a match is on.
Re: Forum - Android App
There used to be an android app that scraped the site, but I can't remember what it was or if it's even still around..
There is a feature of the site I haven't made use of, or promoted before, however.. might be of use to you.
If you look at the following url: feed.php?f=9&t=12100
feed.php produces a feed (atom) using the forum and thread Ids from the querystring parameters. Those parameters are the same as you see when you are browsing a thread or just a forum, e.g. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12100
Hope that helps

1) Forums Reader - which does actually screape the site and return the seperate forums and the feed
2) RSS Reader - simple RSS list of the feed URL itself.
Thanks to you both for your help.

They're read-only I presume? be careful about putting your forum login into an app (sorry if that's teaching you to suck eggs)

Yes, they pull the latest comments / posts to the feed and link to the forum if you want to reply. No creds are held in the app itself
