How does the "Open in browser" button work?

    I'm developing a tapatalk backend. The "Browser" button, when used with, e.g., vBulletin sites, opens the current thread in the browser. However, when I use the client with my backend, this doesn't work -- the button does nothing.

    How does the backend communicate the thread URL to the tapatalk client?

    This is currently hard-coded in our app - but we plan to move it to a standard API so you will have a chance to tell the app what to do.

    Is there any progress here. We want to achieve the same feature in our app. A button, which opens the actual topic in the browser. So we need the URL of the actual topic.

    It currently still does not support it but it should hide itself if the plugin is not recognizable - is it not the case?

    I don't understand. What should hide? The URL? Which URL?
