Re: tiling a shower room
I would use a rapid setting flexible adhesive( white), but i would also use a tanking membrane to waterproof the ply.....use the adhesive to apply the membrane and tile with....This will prevent any water from swelling the ply through ingression in the joints...

Re: tiling a shower room
You might want to consider using a cement based adhesive instead of the Ardex D30 if you tank out. Might take the addy a while to dry otherwise.
