Forum Style - Mobile Style for vBulletin 4.0

** 25/08/2010 This style has been superceded by this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=249277

However, you can run them both if you know you have older mobile phones accessing your site as they may be able to render this one better **




This is a port of my mobile style from 3.7/3.8 to 4.0.0.

It is a very cut back style with very low bandwidth usage which renders well on pretty much all small screen devices from old Nokias to new iPhones.

Currently it only supports forums/thread/posts/PMs. Recent vBulletin features such as Social Groups, Albums, Blogs are not supported (although they should still disaplyin a not-so-mobile-friendly way...)

Further customise this style with Mobile Style Options!

• Supports viewing/posting/replying in forums
• Supports Private Messaging
• Supports Tags (viewing, not adding)
• Supports Thread Prefixes
• has an add-on product to customise here: Extend and Customise Mobile Style (It is recommended that you install this also, but not required)
• Supports other stuff too ....

Version Control
1.0.0 - Initial Relase from 3.7
1.0.1 - Fixed issue with "Friendly URL's" not being compatible
1.0.2 - Updated version numbers to 4.0.99 (should cover all 4.0 releases with the "Out of date templates" messages. Removed Replacement Variables.
1.0.3 - Fixed known template bugs


Install Instructions

1. Save wireless.css.txt to wireless.css and uppload to your forum root
2. Save XML style file and install via AdminCP

Notes

• To change style attributes, you need to edit the CSS file
• Please leave copyright and the link as they are - it links to a very niche forum which is very ulikely to detract from or take members form your own.

As you were.

A lot of those functions were in earlier versions, but I took them out as I did not use them and they just added clutter. I might put them back in as "options" which can be enabled via teh "Mobile Style Options" add-on

Thanks. That would be very helpful.

Is it possible to quote yet dartho?

The reply box is there but you need to click "submit" reply" to reply and you used to be able to quote a post before.

EDIT: Found the fix and working brilliantly...

4.0.4 version looks the bizz dartho, looking forward to using it

Right.

I installed this along with the additional options plugin and it's ruined all my styles. How do I undo everything?

What does it mean "ruined all the styles"?

Well I think what must of happed like Dartho said is that I merged the style into my default parent style which filtered down to all the rest. I was sure I had selected no parent though so I'm not sure how I did it.

When I then went to remove the mobile style and it's plugin all my styles were Dartho branded and useless, had to open a support ticket because I didn't know how to fix it. Not Dartho's fault in any event but worth cautioning people so they don't make the same mistake that I did.

Anyone else getting a "certificate violation" type error when attempting to mark all posts as read?

Running on an iPad and iPhone, when I try to do this using the Mobile Style, that's what appears and it requests I contact the Administrator.

I'm able to simply switch to Full Graphics Mode from Mobile Style and perform the same function without a problem ...

Thanks for your efforts dartho ... really nice product and sure speeds up usage on PDA devices... :up:
