Ok I noticed when I finally wanted to see my site using my cell phone that I was asked to buy an app called forum runner...for 1.97
well,
Since I do not make any money from this sale, and I do not like passing a cost to me end users for something...they do not need I disabled the feature...
I have mobile skins installed and they can be selected by using the quick style changer selection...
I removed Forum runner from my site based software (vbulletin)
and now the dumb question...
What exactly is forum runner and what exactly is it for if you do not need it to see the site on a mobile device...?
Next why would it not tell me that this is a paid app that requires a download, when I see it in my members area, and exactly who is making money off of it?
Do I need any of this to keep my site up to par, since I deleted and removed all of it completely from my entire site including templates.
Did I do the wrong thing?
What is the point of installing mobile skins ? exspecially when a user can now use full site html as a feature on all smart phones and tablets?
So I guress in the end why have a moile add on to push a notification when the user can have e mails on their device?
why not install the app to send text message to user on new post?
All of this seems like ten ways to skin the same cat when the cat doesn't need to be skinned to begin with...
I guess I lack the understanding about this since my goal is to keep the forum and added templates to a min...since each time I do something I have to edit the skins each set one at a time...
Why play all of these games?
Please help me to understand these questions so I can make the best choice for my site and my members.
I did go and read the forum runner web site which to me at best is very Vague, and I would not be surprised to see IB owns it either...Vbulletin does not really go into detail about it either...that I have seen.
