I've given up using Tapatalk for reading Aquamail. I now use the Firefox browser to access the forum. So when I click on the link in an email telling me that there is a new subscribed it takes me to Firefox.
So, the popup telling me every time to use Tapatalk (see attached screenshot) is annoying. Is there a way to disable it?

Thanks for your comment

I've had this happening before (I am using Opera, but a several-months-old version). I don't think it was happening every time, but maybe I am wrong.
I haven't seen it happening recently. I suspect it is because I always have at least one browser tab with Aquamail forums in it. That might be the "workaround"...

I think, this is caused by the Tapatalk forum plugin. And I assume, there is a setting to disable that notification. Maybe @Kostya will look into it?
This might help:

I just did this:
$app_ads_enable = 0;
$app_banner_enable = 1;
Please let me know how it turns out.

Kostya, as usual, you came through.
Popup gone. Thank you!
Unfortunately it came back......
-
In case you missed it Kostya, problem persists.
-
Yes, I missed it because I don't use Tap-a-Talk myself.
Just changed:
$app_banner_enable = 1;
to
$app_banner_enable = 0;
Let's see. The descriptions of these settings are very vague, so at this point it's really a "try and see" kind of thing...
-
The popup still appears. Sorry.
A related problem that might or might not be connected.
The login reverts to guest on every new visit even though I select the permanent login button. So I have to relogin every visit. Using Firefox on Android phone.

You allowed storing of Cookies in your browser?
If not, this is the cause, and it's also the cause, that you will be asked every time wether to use Tapatalk

OK, I've reverted the above settings to "stock".
Clearly I don't know what I'm doing, but if someone (anyone, not necessarily @someone) can tell me what magic checkbox to turn off, I will.

I didn't look at the entire depth of the issue, but from what I've seen described on the referenced forum, those options looked reasonable.
So, just in case: I am not sure how the engine for this forum is done, but if there is some process running (besides just the webserver itself), - did you restart it after changing the configurations?
Otherwise, - if it is running as an extension to the webserver (module), - did you restart the webserver daemon? Basically, - are you sure the changes you made were loaded/picked up?
A data point: after you made that change in the settings, - I had to close my browser (for my own reasons). When I opened the site again, I didn't experience the popup, and I was logged into the forum in the web browser.
-
No, I didn't restart back then, it's not necessary (php caching is supposed to check file changes).
But I did now.
And the include variables are now set to:
$app_ads_enable = 0;
$app_banner_enable = 1;
Apparent app_banner_enable is what controls the "this forum is TapaTalk enabled, do you want to use the app", and I do want to keep that.
