Seems to work just fine, even though Clover isn't really my cup of tea.

New version:-

https://mega.nz/#!bX4kVQpB!aBSOe8JCHo0DdG9fZ1Yng6rdBrqu9ttdJH02xOOLk5Y

The new version includes the following fixes:-

- The APK should now install on more devices than previously, so if it didn't work last time give this new link a try.
- fixed links to thumbnails for jpg,jpeg,gif,webm and mp4 files.

Things that still don't work:-

- Spoiler images (see thread >>591 →)

Details of the changes to stock Clover:-

Directory ./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/site/sites/mlpol added.
File ./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/site/sites/mlpol/Mlpol.java added.
File ./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/site/SiteRegistry.java modified.

Source code available on request.

As always, I welcome feedback.

This new version includes the following fixes:-

- The APK is signed and should now install on more devices than previously, so if it didn't work last time give this new link a try.
- Spoiler images now work thanks to the guys that run this site adding spoiler support to the JSON file. (see thread >>591 →)
- Now based on Clover 3.0.1 instead of clover 3.0.0
- Auto-update/manual update features removed.
- Hopefully google drive sorts the hosting issues I've been having.

I'm also looking into a Dashchan plugin, this will probably not be done until end of next weekend due to time constraints.

Great to see you still plugging away at this, friend.
Just a heads up to any previous users: you'll have to uninstall the old version before installing the new one. Not a fault of the app itself, it's just how Android app signatures work. Blame Google.

I don't have anything in the way of feedback, but I do have a crisp QR code of your APK link, so any resident mobilefags can get it quickly.

I've managed to dig up the following bugs, so far:

Dice rolls made in the e-mail field don't allow you to see the details on the roll.
[5d100 = 245]

Dice rolls made in both e-mail and inline form don't display the dice symbol.
These are static images, however, and could in all fairness be substituted with the special character

Red text does not display correctly, appearing only as green text.
Underlined text does not display correctly.
Strikethrough text appears as spoiler text, instead of proper strikethrough
Pink text displays as green text.
Orange text displays as green text.
A little more esoteric, but the align tags don't display correctly, either:
[align=center]Whether it be center-aligned,[/align]
[align=right]Or right-aligned.[/align]

Not sure if the code tag works or not, but since /mlpol/ doesn't have code tags enabled anyways, I wouldn't worry about it.
Spoilering coloured text has no effect, the colour showing through the spoiler tags anyways. However, that's normal site behaviour that I exploit whenever possible, so I don't think there's anything to fix, there.

Good job with the mods, regardless: it's quite a nice sight, being able to pull up a full Anonfilly thread's worth of posts, with absolutely no lag.

>>4265
This is how it displays, on the app itself.
Additionally, the app is convinced there's a -1 byte fireside limit, and there doesn't seem to be a way to post more than one image.

>>4266
*filesize, fucking autocorrect. Also managed to cut off how the dice looks, so bonus points for me.

>>4265

Many thanks for the input, I'll be sure to sort at least some of these out before the next release. Some of them look like they could be a little challenging tho, so they may take a little extra time.

Let me know if you spot anything else.

>>4269
Will do.
Also, if it's hosting you're concerned about, mlpol lets you upload .zip files directly. As long as you don't exceed the filesize limit, which is at the very least in the 30 MB range, you could just zip up the APK, and attach it right to your next update post.

We should let anons know about this when fishing.

any update?
3.0.1 doesn't seem to work for me

>>4581

If you're still around, what version of android are you using?

This new version includes the following changes:-

- This version has been renamed to "Mlpol" and had the icon modified, it can now be installed along side clover.
- The APK has been built and tested with older versions of android, the requirement now is android 5+
- Added thumbnail support for various file types
- Now based on Clover 3.0.2 instead of clover 3.0.1
- Auto-update/manual update features removed.

Details of the main changes to stock Clover:-

Every file has been modified as part of the name change.

Add support for Mlpol;
Directory ./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/site/sites/mlpol added.
File ./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/site/sites/mlpol/Mlpol.java added.
File ./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/site/SiteRegistry.java modified.

Remove support for Auto update (so that we aren't warned when stock is updated);
./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/ui/helper/VersionHandler.java delete
./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/update/UpdateManager.java delete

./app/src/main/java/org/floens/chan/core/settings/ChanSettings.java mod

--------

I had a look into the code that parses the comments, to deal with things like colored text. Unfortunately it looks to me like adding support for additional text types would also require changing the code for the themes. I don't really have the time and maybe not even the skill (I don't like java) to change this. This app was always mainly intended for my own use and I can live with its issues, I thought that I would share it as others may find it useful which is the only reason I'm sharing it.

Anyways let me know of any issues and if I can, I'll try to help.

If you get the "App not installed" error try this version:-

>>4587
6.0
just downloaded >>4688 , works fine so far.

Below are links to version 4.0.0 of the app, this is a major update that requires you to uninstall the existing app and install this new one (this app is signed with the same key as version 3.0.2 so android will let you install over it but it causes a problem where the settings get reset after every change and when the app is restarted)

This version is based off of Kuroba rather than clover as such it adds many new features, I would have rather stuck with the clover sources but it seems like clover is abondoned now.

I will post on the main thread on /mlpol/ when I've had more of a chance to test the app.

Enjoy anons

Does this thing still work? I kind of want to now before I download it.

>>6517
I tried it just now and I got the API parse error that seems to be from the other clover edit too, must be to do with a change to the way the website works since it can still see what boards exist, but not what's on them. Only really wanted to use this since all mobile browsers seem to not work with uploading images to the site

>>6548
You can try firefox, i've been using this same old version below for years!

https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/releases/66.0.5/

>>6549
Yeah I'm not sure what version of Firefox I was using but it failed to work along with other browsers like Opera and Brave. Not sure if it's an issue on the site or the apps though but this version does work, even if it's got some strange pink on the bookmarks section

>>6550
Only issue is, some clips may not play, it may just be my old tablet tho.
It's also pretty good for youtube, specially handy in custom roms that don't let you change the vid quality in the youtube app
>>6550
>even if it's got some strange pink on the bookmarks section
I don't get it, but it's probably not important

Oh, and in some devices you need to check your bookmarks after you add a new one, they may not be saved if you close the app without checking first

I have a shitty Google phone that I can't get rid of because reasons. Is there any way I could make this work on my phone? It's be a lot easier for me to post to /mlpol/ if I didn't have to use chrome.
