I want the ability to save threads for offline reading. Yes, I know about Instapaper, and I know that Zing will keep the last threads you've read in memory, but I'd like to not have to use an outside program or worry about a crash/greedy memory hog/whatever wiping them out before I can get to them.

Zing keeps threads in the memory?

Yep, at least for a little while, until something else overwrites that part of memory.

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 20:48 (thirteen years ago) link

Any updates planned for Zing? A Bookmarks page (where I could see un-updated bookmarked threads) would be nice...

Android version?

Was working on offline on holiday in the land without data. Version I have loads all your unread bookmarks and saves them for offline. (Saving a thread for offline then is just a matter of bookmarking an older post)

Also coming is multi-account and site support, sandboxers rejoice, a custom home screen with just starred boards, full-size pics, ad some other bits and bobs.

iPad version I started to play with, but it'll be tons of work. If someone wants to make a larger site icon I'll put it up tho.

stet, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 23:14 (thirteen years ago) link

cooo, this sounds like it'll be excellent. hope you've been having fun with it.

zing touch is a lifesaver

iPad app please

every time this thread is bumped i am delighted by the word "tooches"
not just tooch, but tooches

yo stet i have noticed lately that when clicking the safari logo in a post launches the WHOLE THREAD in safari, when iirc it used to load the permalink of the post you were coming from?

 (gr8080), Sunday, 11 September 2011 23:36 (thirteen years ago) link

Thought you couldn't really launch Safari from other apps these days. Although maybe it prompts you and asks Do You Really Want To Open Safari?, I never tried in Zing Tooches.

Agent Double O POLL (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 12 September 2011 00:24 (thirteen years ago) link

I launch Safari from other apps all the time!

I haven't changed anything my end; I wonder if Safari has changed. You do have to be logged in on ILX in Safari before it'll work, though -- the auto-login strips the message. And it only works with pint Zing; Zing Lite just opens the thread.

stet, Monday, 12 September 2011 17:10 (thirteen years ago) link

hmmm maybe I just wasn't logged in, cause I'm on pint zing

<3 pint zing

lxy, Monday, 12 September 2011 17:27 (thirteen years ago) link

Wait, what? What is pint zing? I have Zing Touch.

it was as good of a time as any to show a lighter side of 9/11 research (Je55e), Monday, 12 September 2011 17:28 (thirteen years ago) link

Had the same question. Is it like a left-handed smokeshifter?

Agent Double O POLL (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 12 September 2011 17:30 (thirteen years ago) link

Pint zing is red, and I buy a pint (or a Crunchie) when a copy gets sold. I also add you to my list of heroes. Lite Zing is blue and free.

stet, Monday, 12 September 2011 17:45 (thirteen years ago) link

Oh. In that case, I am a proud and pleased owner of Zing Pint, but I did not know it was called that.

hmmm ok i just tried again-- def login in to ILX on safari, and it just took me to the whole thread, not the permalink i was coming from. seems really intermittent, cant figure out why its working in some instances and not in others.

not really a big deal, just figured it was something you'd want to know that was happening.

 (gr8080), Monday, 12 September 2011 21:55 (thirteen years ago) link

Weird. I'll take a look and see if I can see what's up

stet, Monday, 12 September 2011 21:56 (thirteen years ago) link

def noticed it occurring in only the last 2 weeks or so

 (gr8080), Monday, 12 September 2011 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link

It is happening to me, too.

Something weird is happening. Zing Touch won't allow me to read the gay thread. It just won't open - the little spinning wheel stops, but on the bottom it gets stuck on "Loading" but no messages load. All other threads open fine, and the error happens under all circumstances I've tested: 3G, wifi, many and few unread messages.

I'm updating to iOS5 now, so maybe that will take care of the problem.

Je55e, Friday, 14 October 2011 02:03 (thirteen years ago) link

that happened to me w/ my original anime convention thread

⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 14 October 2011 02:06 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah, it had a weird character iirc. Zing is delicate.

Autumn Almanac (Schlafsack), Friday, 14 October 2011 02:07 (thirteen years ago) link

The GOP presidential candidates thread has been doing that for me as well on Zing. Odd.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 14 October 2011 02:09 (thirteen years ago) link

I really think you should stop reading the GOP presidential candidates thread then.

And Je%%se, you're not gay anymore.

Jeff, Friday, 14 October 2011 02:42 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah I've had that same issue with the GOP candidate thread and i think the "david foster wallace: classic or dud" thread as well.

Clay, Friday, 14 October 2011 03:54 (thirteen years ago) link

Disco Inferno lyrics thread for me.

Sick Mouthy (Scik Mouthy), Friday, 14 October 2011 05:57 (thirteen years ago) link

Are you opening these threads from bookmarks or a board?

Couple of minor iOS 5 issues, fix in works now btw

stet, Friday, 14 October 2011 08:09 (thirteen years ago) link

GOP Thread and the Bacon thread won't load for me.

I usually think of Zing being my guardian angel in both of these cases.

Pleasant Plains, Friday, 14 October 2011 14:34 (thirteen years ago) link

I just tried the gay thread from both the board and the bookmark and it didn't work either way.

I am still on iOS4, btw. Ran into a snag last night and put it off.

Je55e, Friday, 14 October 2011 14:50 (thirteen years ago) link

can you paste the permalink to your bookmarked post in here please je55e?

stet, Friday, 14 October 2011 15:06 (thirteen years ago) link

Throw on Your Best Cardigan and Celebrate Fall 2011 with the Gays of ILX

Here you go.

By the way, I thought at one time there was a thread that had the same sort of function as this one, but for ILX, not just Zing. It was a sort of wish list/discussion/place to report problems. I can't find it now. Was there ever such a thing?

I've been wanting to say there that it would be awesome if regular ILX was more like Zing Touch in some ways, including the formatting buttons and....I forget. There are other things. Oh! Yes, the quote button!

Je55e, Friday, 14 October 2011 16:57 (thirteen years ago) link

(maybe i already said those things in this thread?)
