I use: Lightweight Style for VB3.8.7 iPhone/Mobile/Cell/PDA

Passes the google mobile test without issues and color customizations are all in 1 file.

Good lord they are charging more for the new style that vBulletin actually costs itself. But your styles do look awesome. I mean...really awesome. I don't have the time to develop a mobile skin and I shutter to think that we may be forced to buy this...

There is definitely a market for mobile skins with this product right now. If none are developed I see Xenforo winning more vB customers.

So in your opinion this style is worth $500?

Just curiosity.

1.- Don't you use any 3nd party addon that is not using the vB thread engine? All those addons can't work with any mobile style as they need to have their own mobile templates.

2.- As I read there are people already paid $500 for this style, even if it does not covers all vB templates. Have read something about user profile etc. Some paid even more for customization. So the question is: Do you think that a style based on latest Bootstrap (mobile first version), having all templates responsive, at a price of $250 should be good deal?

If I had a successful stable forum based on VB3.x that generates revenue and there was a quality mobile responsive theme, I would definitely pay $250 for it vs paying for the upgrade to a newer VB. This $500 style IMO is not worth it since some parts of the threadview like quotes and videos are not responsive. For that kind of money, I would expect a complete product.

This is because the template has just been changed to responsive as it. This can't work. Except changing the html to responsive you also need to redesign some parts of the template. Here some imagination is needing. eg the forumdisplay has 4 columns if I remember well. You must find a way to show only the most important elements, or all, but in different way. Don't forget that a mobile has needs less resources to be fast.

As a first "mind plan" it can be done. Just don't remember how the uploader works in vB3. I've a special uploader working fine in mobiles, but don't think that I can use it.

I am hoping you guys can see my vb3 responsive style, link in footer, no fancy modding, just styling in place.

A few questions:
1. you are able to use plugins with this?
2. can you do the same for vb 4.2.3?
3. Can we access the user control panel?
4. Can we access private messaging?

I'm in desperate need of a mobile style for vB 4.2.X. The mobile application is full of bugs. driving me absolutely nuts.

When you say the videos are not responsive... you mean they push they don't adjust to the size of the screen?

I am sorry I have no plan to do it for vb4 since people can use vb4 default mobile style. I know that vb4 mobile style is limited in feature.

My vb3 responsive theme is based on the original vb3 templates and layout, so you can access normal user cp - attached screen - and no problem of using add on - but maybe later add on need to re-style. Youtube video also responsive.

Think about it this way cause you're a bit short sighted. Nobody wants to use the vb mobile style. Users can't upload avatars or check private messages. They can't change their bio graphic data or location. There's no BB code so they can't easily embed images or create web links. They can't do a lot of things.

to make matters worse 75% of web traffic is mobile so most people visiting and registering have no idea that they SHOULD be able to do these things. I have so many users without avatars its ridiculous. People are frustrated they can't figure out how to add images. Not only that but Google will penalize sites without a mobile view...

NOBODY WANTS TO USE THE DEFAULT MOBILE STYLE. WE HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE RIGHT NOW.

Did I change your mind?

Wow, He's not short sighted....I'd say more like enlightened. Nobody wants to pay for anything, they want everything for free. Time isn't free.

Google thinks the vb4 mobile style is acceptable. It works fine for reading the forums which is what it is intended to do. If users want to do more on the forums, they will need to hit a bigger screen. VB5 is mobile responsive and still yet you cannot do everything on mobile or tablet that you can on a full desktop. Mobile viewing is not intended to replace a desktop. If you want this type of functionality, then you will either have to code it yourself or pay a developer to do it for you.
