Link to forum
-
Is it an idea to put a link (in app browser) to the forum in the app? There is some space left (see image). I use the forum a lot and maybe some will find their way to it more easily.
-
@Bart-DM put a shortcut on your homescreen. I've done the same. Hehe
-
@StefanHummelink That's not so easy via ๏ฃฟ... especially if you use a browser other than Safari.
-
@Bart-DM personally Iโm in favour! However for general purpose of the app, not so sure if itโs a good idea. Way more people donโt use the forum than do and placing a prominent button there will most likely lead to more issues than happy users
Also, clicking on routelab and then on the forum is only 1 (or 2, depending on resolution) clicks more. You do have some longer load times
-
@Corjan-Meijerink I understand your reasoning, but it would make it easier for the die hard fans
-
@Bart-DM hmmm, don't know the trouble on iOS since I'm a Fandroid haha.
-
@Corjan-Meijerink Is it an idea to put the button only in the beta app and see what it gives?
-
@Bart-DM not the biggest fan
-
@Corjan-Meijerink okay, no problem
-
@Bart-DM if we allow more customisation options in the app, this would definitely make sense!
Way down on your account page are some quick links too so a forum link could be placed there but thatโs a longer path than just opening routelab an clicking on โForumโ
-
@Corjan-Meijerink yes, youโre right.
-
@Corjan-Meijerink I made a shortcut through Safari anyway, not ideal but better than nothing
-
@Bart-DM sweet! Please note forum authentication is handled with a synchronisation of the mra site. If you never login to mra on the browser you use the forum, the forum will throw you out after a while.
Use: https://www.myrouteapp.com/forum/login for quick access. This refreshes your mra session and thus the forum authentication

@Corjan-Meijerink What is actually the meaning of the forum logo? Or is that from the forum software being used?
-
@Bart-DM the forum software (https://nodebb.org/) no clue if we can configure that icon. Even if we can, no real priority for me hahah
-
@Corjan-Meijerink yes you canโฆ
I was just wondering. Thanks for the info. -
@Bart-DM I had a few seconds left Icon has been updated!
-
@Corjan-Meijerink What a service
-
@Corjan-Meijerink Are you sure you updated the right logo? I still see the old one, even after clearing the cache memory.
-
@Bart-DM I am (talking about the favicon)
