I really love this plug. Only that it messes up the site on both iPad and iPhone. I have used it on several of my pageline sites. And all of them behaves the same. The site floats away on both of them when using this gadget. How not so great is that ? Look here http://pehjaproduktion.se/grandhotel

@pehja I dont understand what your problem is. Your link returns a 404 page. Please be more specifik and post it as a bug in the forums which is for support.http://www.pagelines.com/forum/forum/71-products-by-aleksander-hansson/

@AleksanderHansson @pehja really I posted this 18 days ago...

AleksanderHansson

@pehja Thats awesome... I am glad you got it solved!

pehja

@AleksanderHansson @pehja well i used the PageLine browser plug to target the issue. So problem solved. And the testsites i set up is long gone ;)

AleksanderHansson

@pehja I just got it now... Seems that PageLines have some problems with spam comments.

Cool plugin but you must guys admit your description is very confused!

This plugin won't "turn your PageLines site into an iOS web app" at all. This plugin will display a call-to-action window to invite people - browsing from an iPhone or an iPad - to add a home screen icon of your website on their iDevices.

AleksanderHansson

@jpmarchand Actually it have some nice scripting that turns it into a webapp feel when the user adds it to homescreen.For example: full screen browsing, the app does not leave the webapp feel when tabbing links, the address bar is removed etc.

@AleksanderHansson I see. Can I suggest a new feature: optional menu bar with previous/next page buttons and a share button too.

@jpmarchand There is a "Follow this conversation" option in the LiveFyre module above. We will write a comment to let everyone know when we are releasing updates.

jpmarchand

@AleksanderHansson I didn't buy your plugin yet (really need the optional feature I suggested above). How can I be notified about future Chappy upgrades?

@AnthonyBarone Hi There! Make sure your testing it in an iOS simulation or on a iPhone or iPad.

AnthonyBarone

@mikezielonka

I am testing it on not one, but two iphones actually.

AleksanderHansson

Alright. We just set up a new demosite on http://chappy.ahansson.com where the plugin is active. Check it out from your iOS device to test it! :)

AnthonyBarone

@AleksanderHansson

Ive installed and configured but is not doing anything. Am I missing something here?

AleksanderHansson

@AnthonyBarone Can you give me a link to your site?

mikezielonka

@AnthonyBarone This is a screenshot from my iPhone: http://screencast.com/t/7BsJeLCmagCJust access the frontpage and see it happen. Try clearing your browser cache or turn of any caching plugin you might have running.

AnthonyBarone

@AleksanderHansson @AnthonyBarone

Ok, so how are you accessing it? Because I am going throgh iphone browser and not seeing anything?

AleksanderHansson

@AnthonyBarone Well, I have it working on my iPhone here. Just need to reload it on the device. It does not show first time a user visits, but if they come back, it will show.

mmm, no time to drop down few more lines?

I am interested if it handles better NEXTGEN images...because on the iphone it is a mess with nextgen..

thank you!

AleksanderHansson

@DeodatoSalafia Hmmm, interesting. Is it this plugin or is it NEXTGEN in general that you have problems with?

DeodatoSalafia

@AleksanderHansson @DeodatoSalafia

I haven't tried this plugin yet. I am referring at wp+Platform+Nextgen that don't work on iphone correctly. I am trying to find a solution...

AleksanderHansson

@DeodatoSalafia Just verified, from another developer, that PL 2.x and Nextgen is working well together.

AleksanderHansson

@DeodatoSalafia Allright... You need PageLines 2.0 or higher for the plugin to work. As far as I know PL 2.0 have responsive support for Nextgen. You better ask on the forums to be sure before you buy PL 2.0 ;)

BobvanDinten

Just Tested, works fine! but does it work on android also?

AleksanderHansson

@BobvanDinten No it does not work with Android (yet). Android does not have the same way of adding to homescreen. We will look into it if things change ;)

BobvanDinten

I have absolutely NO IDEA what this does. The little explanation above doesnt explain anything. I tried accessing the Live Demo on desktop, iphone and ipad to see what it does but it all looked the same to me... maybe I am missing something. What exactly does this do?

I think Pagelines should have some kind of requisites for advertising products in their store. This plugin is REALLY lacking info compared to other stuff here.

AleksanderHansson

@NelsonAbacherliKawakami Alright. We just set up a new demosite on http://chappy.ahansson.com where the plugin is active. Check it out from your iOS device to test it! :)

AleksanderHansson

PageLines.me currently does not have the plugin active - which is why it is not working on the demopage. We are setting up another demopage ASAP so that you guys are able to test it before you buy. Sorry for the inconvienence!

I'm interested in your plugin, but I'm not sure I understand exactly what it does. I'm trying to find a plugin that will provide a mobile version of the website.

In the past, I've used WP Touch Pro, but now that I'm using PageLines, I can't use WPT. Can you provide some more examples of how your plugin is used?

Hello,

I am sorry but I am not sure how I am supposed to figure out what this plugin is about. There is no available information whatsoever, visiting the demo site with an iOS device also does not help at all. Not sure who buys anything without knowing what it is about. I don't understand why Pagelines don't provide information about the plugins/sections that are being sold in The Store. I am pretty sure that if there was info available, a lot more people felt intrigued. Apologies for the comment.
