Blackberry vBulletin App

Hey Guys / Gals,

My name is Harry Scanlan, creator of BerryBlab.com

BerryBlab allows you to surf your vBulletin forums natively from your blackberry.

BerryBlab.com is in Beta test and we are looking for forums to help test it. If you run a forum or are on a forum which currently uses vBulletin as their forum software, ask them to install our plugin and test out our beta today!

OS 4.5+ devices only - Touch Screen not currently supported but will have a Beta for Storm users next week.

Currently Supports:

* Inherits all security policies based on your vBulletin setup
* Multiple Forums
* User Login
* View Forums
* View Sub Forums
* Private Messaging - View, Reply, Reply All, New
* View Latest Threads
* View Subscribed Threads
* Reply to Threads
* Create New Threads
* Show images in threads

EDIT: can't post images / links, but you can check screen shots out at our BerryBlab.com website.

Cheers

Harry Scanlan

Does it properly move you to your first unread message, and properly mark messages as read for next time? That's the number one reason I don't use the wiforums WAP engine.

Which versions of vBulletin does it support?

Harry, if you add the screenshots/links a moderator will go in and edit them so they will display for you. Once you get 10 posts you will be able to add them yourself.

Yes we would definitely like to see it

Sounds good! I'm almost at 10! :D I didn't want to needlessly spam, but I'll find something to post about.

I'm currently writing it for 3.8+ but users have had success using it on 3.7 and 4.0 Beta.

I have been requested to do the "last post read" function that you asked for, but currently it displays the "newest post" first and goes from there. Displays 10 posts and then has a "more" function, sort of like Ubertwitter.

I have added that request to my coding "time line" and will most def get to it.

I'd love to see that Storm version. I found the hard way the current version doesn't work on the Storm :(

Installing the beta, will check it out! 8-)

is there a way to get an updated list of which forums currently use the plug-in? does bbf use it yet?

EDIT

never mind I just found it on the site: http://www.berryblab.com/Network.aspx

:? Does this BB platform have BerryBlab enabled?

Nope

Wirelessly posted (BB 11020)

The one forum I did know of that had it installed, uninstalled it due to a major security issue.

Oh really?
Good to know.
I'll pass the word.

There was a "security" issue in the BETA plugin , version 0.06 which was addressed and released within an hour of the report. This was fixed in version 0.07. This is why the app was marked as BETA for the last three months.

The issue was that users could see private POSTS only if they knew what the post ID was, so it did not effect anyone. The issue was reported and fixed.

We are currently out of beta and on version 0.13. The flaw has been completely eliminated and checked by vBulletin.org. This app has absolutely no security issues according to vbulletin.org.

Also, this app has been installed by over 200 forums, CrackBerry.com âxxx8364;xxx8220; The #1 Site for BlackBerry Users & Abusers being one of them, which is one of the top three BlackBerry websites in the entire world, if not the top. Believe me, they wouldn't have installed it if it had any current issues.

I am an independent developer in Canada, thus when bugs like this happen i can fix them immediately and not have to outsource them like other plugins.

I have been working with the owner of Crackberry as well as their users to improve the application. Check this thread.

If you (or anyone) have any issues or problems, let me know and I will be glad to address them!

I actually know Tom (the owner of blackberryforums) personally, and we have been discussing how to implement BerryBlab on BBF. In fact, I live 10 minutes from his house.

Actually, 145 sites they claim use it.

Hey JSanders,
Tidefans.com is one of the sites

BerryBlab work great with Crackberry. It should be added here.

ya i agree, it should be added here as well. That would be awesome.
