I've been using Forums Lite and it stinks.

Nobody knows of a better one?

Sorry, I'm not a Apple fan. My smartphone uses droid.

There are two iPhone apps that I know of that will interface with phpBBs, but the forum owners/operators have to install a plug-in to make the forum "available" to the application:

http://www.tapatalk.com/

http://www.forumrunner.net/

I used Forum Runner briefly and wasn't terribly impressed, but that's because Bartertown is the only phpBB I follow; so, I didn't poke around too much :wink:

Another option would be to make a different "skin" available to be consumed by mobile devices (not just the iPhone); however, this may also requires changes to how the BB identifies devices that are accessing it and determining the proper output.

Thank you for the input. After 5 months of being dead, however, please start a new topic in the future.
Thanks.
