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** 25/08/2010 This style has been superceded by this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=249277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1.0.2 - Updated version numbers to 4.0.99 (should cover all 4.0 releases with the "Out of date templates" messages.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

No chance - how can I "mobilise" widgets when they can be anything you want?

vBulletin are actively working on a mobile style/interace, lets see what they have to offer ...

I see zero difference with this and what it looked like before on my iPhone ?

I even installed your mobile options add-on as well.

Am I missing something here.

I would say so. Is the style user selectable, and have you selected it? If you want your site to automatically detect you are using an iPhone and change style for you, you will also need to install this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=226946

Thanks, works fine

Is there a way to put the option for this Mobile style somewhere near the top of the page rather than just in the style picker at the bottom?

[struff]

Is there a way to reduce the amount of icons/images/videos that are displayed in each post and be more like your old version?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Adding the following "Replacement Variables" should help:

border="0" alt="" /> => target="_blank">[image]</a>
class="inlineimg" /> => >[smilie]</a>
img src => a href
img src="http => a href="http

I haven't really tested these under 4.0 first, but these did work in 3.8 and provide a starting point.

As for Style Chooser near top - I hope to release an enhanced version of the mobile detect hack (which still works under 4.0) which may give the option of something like this..
