Quotes on the vB Mobile Style

[bfdzio]

I just finally upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2 and am using a custom mobile style based off the new one available to me. The #1 complaint by my users is that the quotes require you to click to go to the post.

Is there a way to disable this so they are shown?

Please does anyone have a solution for this? Even my themes developer isn't experiencing this, and it seems to happen on even the default vBulletin mobile style.

I can only find one post referencing this exact issue on the vBulletin.com forums from August but it was ignored.

Same exact issue. If you edit a post with the quote, all the text is there. It appears that for whatever reason, the actual thread and preview is missing the div.message that actually displays the text.

Running 4.2.0 Patch level 2... wondering if it's just a bug w/ this particular version and if there might be a hack workaround. Happens with a copy of the default master mobile style and with all plugin hooks disabled.

So if I get you right, there's no text showing in the quote when you quote someone and post it?
I'm running vBulletin 4.2.2 and I don't face this issue.

Yeah, the quote box just shows up with "Posted by username" and the little arrow image linking to the post. If you use an old style quote without the username and just [.quote], the text shows up fine though.

And if you look at this guy's forum, he has the same issue.

Is this problem chronic or intermittent? I tested with PHP v5.3 and v4.2.2, and do not have issues. I will try to test later with PHP v5.4.

do you have something custom going on with bbcode for [quote] ?

@tbworld: happens 100% of the time in mobile style.

@tpearl5: No, it works fine on everything but mobile style. Which is funny because all the styles and templates are pretty heavily modified except the mobile style. I even copied the master mobile style to a new mobile style and it still does it.

Anyway, I figured it out. I had to remove the bold part from bbcode_quote in the mobile style:


<div class="message">{vb:raw message}</div>



And that fixed it right up. So I can only assume that the div.message is not defined in the .css for mobile, but I'm not sure where to define it. I tried fiddling with the the .css file in the clientscript\jquery folder and adding div.message to bbcode.css in the mobile style, but it didn't seem to do anything. Regardless, quotes show up now so I'm good.

I believe this forum was upgraded from 4.1.x something to 4.2.0 before my time...

The only thing I could find by googling this problem was this thread and:

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forum/vbulletin-4/vbulletin-4-questions-problems-and-troubleshooting/416158-mobile-style-isn-t-showing-quotes

So not much. Hopefully this helps anyone else who may run across this.
