content: Dave, this is a nice addition to the forum, but it really gets annoying every time I hit a link from my email client to the forum that message box appears "This forum supports Tapatalk blah blah blah". Is there any way to remove that message? I really don't want to use the app because I find it to be too much of a hassle. If I did this for every website I would have 30+ apps for eBay, Google, Amazon, Wikipedia, forums, news websites with their own apps every single one of them, Yellow pages, Agh!I prefer a website with a decent mobile version. Much more versatile. Remember some people keep their semi-dumbphones with Opera, the web browser.

content: It showed up for me as well yesterday under the same situation: I followed a link from a email on my android and got a message "this forum support tapatalk..." Today it doesn't happen, either when browsing directly to the forum or following an email link, so either it has been fixed, or it sets a cookie and only advertises once.

I also subscribe to my topics and some interesting ones.It seems like they updated their plugin and now it sets a cookie after being displayed for the first (and only) time but before, every time you went to a forum it said something like this:

content: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!However, as other people have mentioned, I usually enter the forum through a link in an email, so a mobile theme would be most desirable.
