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** 25/08/2010 This style has been superceded by this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=249277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1.0.2 - Updated version numbers to 4.0.99 (should cover all 4.0 releases with the "Out of date templates" messages.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.

Also, you should rename "wrireless.css.txt" to "wireless.css" and upload to your forum root to ad a little colour to the style.

{vb:raw ad_location.ad_footer_end}

thanks dartho looks much better now, grateful for your answers, my respect for you.

Were you using the "beta" version of the style and add-on? "PC Mode" link shouldn't show up without the add-on installed.

for everyone else, I have move the testing site - it's at www.vbdev.org and you can download the next version from there, but to save confusion support will only be offered there until it gets released here. It's only a test site, so feel free to test away , post messages/attachments etc.

Install "Mobile Style Options" and configure the style chooser https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=229044 and also edit the navbar template in the mobile style and replace

<a class="navbar" href="{vb:raw  $vbulletin->options['mo37_navbar_home']}{vb:raw  session.sessionurl_q}">{$vbulletin->options['mo37_home_link_text']}</a>

with

<a class="navbar" href="{vb:raw  vboptions.mo37_navbar_home}{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:raw  vboptions.mo37_home_link_text}</a>

This fixes a bug in the style. I'll be releasing an update real soon to address this.

I had a mobile style for 3.8 that allowed me to select if iPhones could be exempt from the mobile style... after all, who wants to see the mobile style on an iPhone or worse and iPad (Android etc.)

Is this an option with this version - I'm not seeing it. I need a mobile style that can excempt the larger mobile devices.

Making it a user option won't work because users will switch between mobile device browsing and regular.
