I am trying to extract the URLs requested from a browser I create within an iOS app. I get the URLs using this method: on browserLoadRequested pUrl, pType put pURL into field "check" end browserLoadRequested But this doesn't work when clicking a link that would open in a new window in a desktop brow...

I think the user should use the iOS long press to copy - as long as text is selectable should work… I have another option. Clicking the facebook button in a normal browser opens a new window with the username in the url, which I can extract doing this but with a lot more manipulation to extract any...

I think the user should use the iOS long press to copy - as long as text is selectable should work… Thanks for the pointer. I suppose if long press works its better than having them manually go back and type it out. Shame theres not a way to get it from the clipboard from the 'copy link' button, or...

I think copy/paste is restricted on iOS for security reasons, but don't take my word for it... There does seem to be a barrier, this would make sense. I want to have users sign up/ sign in to their paypal.me and then click the copy link button in the example below Untitled 39.png Then my app take t...

Is it possible on iOS for a script to work with something a user copies in a browser within the app?

I've tried 'put the clipboardData["text"] into field "check"' in the iOS simulator and nothing.

Ah, thanks for letting me know!

Do you think this makes sending a push notification out from an LiveCode iOS app impossible through this general method? Or is there maybe a workaround?

Hi all, I have followed the steps described here to set up and send/recieve push notifications on iOS https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4069/l/1380237-how-to-send-http-2-based-push-notifications-in-ios I downloaded the example stack and I'm now recieving push notifications on my iPhone app, sending the...

Running continually in the background on iOS doesn't seem to be working. When I put the app into the background for 30 seconds or so and change the part of the LiveCloud table to 'report', a notification will come through. However any more time and it doesn't work. Any ideas? My code: local tTable, ...

Thanks Stam, I'll test this and see

Although just to note I am working with iOS! I'll start testing things, I just thought since the creator of MergBgTask told someone they couldn't quite do something very similar, that maybe it wasn't worth trying. But I'll test and see.

Hi All, I'd like to use mergBgTask to execute code continually while the app is in the background. I want the app to continually check a LiveCloud table to see if something is in the relevant table reference, and then send a notification if there is. I've seen from years ago, someone asking about so...

Maybe use a different backend? Many seem to prefer Stripe. At a glance, I saw this: https://docs.stripe.com/payments#multiparty-payments Looks like it is the kind of thing you're looking for, but not sure... (ie I'm too lazy to read ;)) Thanks so much for directing me to this! I haven't done anythi...

Ah Adaptive payments are out: "Adaptive Payments are deprecated by the time I am writing this answer. What you can do is letting the owner of the website receive the payment to his PayPal account and then use Paypal Payouts to transfer the merchant's money. For example, if you are getting 5 percent ...

Interesting question - can you pose a single payment request to the user while actually taking two payments? (genuinely no idea if this is possible and actually curious...) The above indicates its possible, and ideally I'd like the first option which hides the details of the split, just to make it ...

Some of this may be out of date now but this is what I need to use on the PayPal side, from a forum post in 2013: "There are a number of ways you could set this up. You could use the Adaptive Payments platform, specifically the Pay API, to create parallel or chained payments so that multiple receive...

Hi all

Ideally I'd like to integrate my app with PayPal but specifically so that people can tip eachother while I take a 20% fee.

So I need my app to set up two payments to be sent simultaneously and accordingly.

Cheers
