Hardiboard over plywood: Liquid Nails or Thinset?
I wanted to get everyone's thoughts on what type of adhesive to use over plywood.
This will be for an eating area, not a bathroom, so water is less of a concern. I've heard liquid nails would be acceptable (and I know it would be easier and faster than cement type products.)
Thoughts? Advice?

Not sure who told you that but it's wrong.
You need thin set.
The thin set helps to level out the low areas between the joist.
It needs to be a hard solid non flexing material which any form of Liquid nails is not.
