Talisman57 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 Hi phpVMS people, I am always on the go, and when I get a moment, it would be great if I could do some work on my airline, but the iPhone will not let me type anything on that page. My main question is: Can an app be made for the iPhone to manage phpVMS? I can do most of the coding, but the connection is where I could use some help. Thanks, David Oliveira Verazano Virtual Quote
Moderators Kyle Posted April 2, 2011 Moderators Report Posted April 2, 2011 That would been a good idea, since I have XCode that develops Iphone Apps. but I'm a noob. I'm just learning php and C++ very slowly. Quote
Tom Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 I could make an iPhone skin for the admin panel (work on some kind of automagic detection too) and you could add it to the home screen as a web app... 1 Quote
Strider Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 You dont need any special code, just skin it, and let it detect when you're on a mobile device. Quote
RogerB Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 Doesn't the iphone show normal websites with no problem anyway?? I have the mytouch 4G and it shows the admin panel just fine. Quote
Tom Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 Doesn't the iphone show normal websites with no problem anyway?? I have the mytouch 4G and it shows the admin panel just fine. It renders things fine, but it's pretty small when you're trying to use inputs and forms, as with any mobile device. Hence why people are increasingly developing mobile compatible versions of their sites. Quote
Talisman57 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Report Posted April 8, 2011 Actually, I can't type anything into editor boxes for Pages, News, etc. I can edit in Source code mode but it does not scroll down Quote
VIP AIR Virtual Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 A mobile page with auto-detect would be great :-) Quote
VIP AIR Virtual Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 I started building a mobile portion for PHPVMS admin panel (don't know how good it will turn out but we will see) Any Specific pages that I should Include. I was thinking: Dashboard, Pilot Registrations, Pirep Admin, Awards, and Ranks/.. Quote
Moderators Kyle Posted April 13, 2011 Moderators Report Posted April 13, 2011 Everything? Everything would be nice, so I don't have to sit at my computer desk to do all of it. So I think it would be good. Quote
vader21 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 I can create this very easily, Let me know if you guys still would want this! Quote
Tom Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Oh I remember this thread! If you want to do an iPhone admin skin that's cool, I'm getting Xcode Friday so I'll attempt to make an actual app if there's still a demand? Quote
vader21 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Well an actual app would be irrelevant i would say, because making a PHP detection and then having a skin for the admin so it can act as in app that would be easier i think. The iphone already has an option to save a page like an app icon. Quote
