    I'm going to ask Sam about this. I'm pretty sure it works with Xenforo. I'll post as soon as I get an answer.

    When will the site be down? And what's the expected downtime?

    Regarding downtime: there's a good chance we'll need all of Saturday to get it done. It'll probably take a full 72 hours of bug chasing to have everything running at 99%.

    Regarding Tapatalk: it's not something we'll have available initially. They've done / are doing slimy things, their software creates security issues, patching it is time-intensive, and there are concerns about its compatibility with other features the site uses, but considering how poorly the current site performs on mobile we had to make it available. The new site was designed with mobile in mind, and I'm hopeful it will close the hole that Tapatalk was filling for us. We'll see how it goes.

    If it ain't broke don't fix it.

    If it is broke, why is it not fixed yet?

    Hehehe we are working on the fix, since it is broke. But if we rush it, that would be a disaster. LOL:biggrin_25525:
