The Arcive of Official vBulletin Modifications Site.

About Developer · **Released**: 08-24-2010

A lightweight *forum only style aimed at small screen devices such as Windows Smartphones, Nokias and even iPhones. It has VERY low bandwidth requirements - 15 times less on my site - 20K as opposed to 300K for forumhome.

*forum only - I have done a very small amount of rough work on CMS templates, a simple single column CMS *could* be created to work with this style without too much effort. However I am not sure if you can have a different CMS layout dependent on which style you are using?

This is an update to the mobile style I have previously released.

The changes are predominantly aesthetic to take advantage of larger screens.

It is also much easier to change colour schemes by editing the commented CSS file.

Demo: http://vbdev.org/forum.php?styleid=7

This is a a lightweight style and as such has much reduced functionality/information over the default vBulletin style.

Install instructions:

Firstly, if upgrading, I recommend installing this as a new style rather than overwriting your previous install. This way you get to test it first without trashing your existing style.
BACKUP YOUR EXISTING lightweight.css.php FILE IF YOU HAVE CSS CUSTOMISATIONS
Download ZIP file
Unzip to a local/temp directory
Edit lightweight.css.php file to customise colours if required
Upload contents of the upload directory in the zip file folder to your forum root.
Install style XML via Style Manager in your ADMINCP
**Install and configure "LightWeight Style Options"
See post 2 for a FAQ
Click "Mark as Installed"
Test it out
Leave a rating
Leave feedback
Enjoy checking your site from your mobile phone without the need to pinch/zoom/wait etc...

Version Control:

1.0.0 - 25 AUG 2010 - Initial Release on vBulletin.org
1.0.1 - 26 AUG 2010 - Fixed "Mark All Forums Read" link in Search results. Released Lightweight Style Options to customise this
1.0.2 - 21 MAR 2011 - Updated to 4.1.2, removed short tags from CSS, fixed some issues discovered since last release, added some stuff.
1.0.3 - 16 DEC 2011 - Updated to 1.0.3, tried to fix all known issues. Nothing new. If you have updated your site as bugs have been found, probably no need to upgrade. But if you're upgrading your site from to 4.1.9, might be worthwhile.
1.0.3a - 16 DEC 2011 - remove test ad hook code accidently left in postbit_legacy template

Branding Free:

The style is free to use. However I ask that you keep links in the footer. If you want to remove them - send me a donation of an amount you can afford, or that you think is fair/reasonable, it's up to you how much.

Thanks dartho for the above info; can the vBSEO Like system be added in the same manner?

Your version for detection of devices was superb, used to detect iPad either. The vBulletin's buit-in one does not.

edit post_thanks_button template in lightweight style and replace contents with:

Code:

edit post_thanks_postbit template in the lightweight style and replace contents with:

Code:

<if condition="$post['post_thanks_amount'] == 1">
	<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[post_thanks_user_says]</phrase>
<else />
	<phrase 1="$post[post_thanks_amount_formatted]" 2="$post[username]">$vbphrase[post_thanks_users_say]</phrase></if>

$post[post_thanks_bit]

edit postbit and postbit_legacy templates in lightweight style , search for

Code:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/moderated_small.gif" alt="$vbphrase[moderated_post]" border="0" />
</if>
</div>
</if>

and replace with

Code:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/moderated_small.gif" alt="$vbphrase[moderated_post]" border="0" />
</if>
$template_hook[postbit_controls]
</div>
</if>
$template_hook[postbit_end]

I think that should just about do it - assuming it is this hack: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=165673 that you have installed

caveat: this may introduce other hacks into the lightweight style which use the postbit_end and postbit_control hooks

the code posted is old
anyway updated to vb4
would be I guess (below)
but still don't work

post_thanks_box

Code:

<div class="windowbg" id="post_thanks_box_{vb:raw post.postid}"> 
	{vb:raw post_thanks_box}
</div>

post_thanks_button

Code:

<a id="btn" href="post_thanks.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=post_thanks_add&amp;p={vb:raw post.postid}&amp;securitytoken={vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" id="post_thanks_button_{vb:raw post.postid}"<vb:if condition="$vboptions[disable_ajax] != 2"> onclick="return post_thanks_give({vb:raw post.postid}, <vb:if condition="$vboptions[post_groans_integrate]">true<vb:else />false</vb:if>);"</vb:if> <vb:if condition="$display_thanks_image == 'none'">style="display:none"</vb:if> rel="nofollow" class="post_thanks_button">{vb:rawphrase post_thanks_thanks}</a>

post_thanks_postbit

Code:

<vb:if condition="$post['post_thanks_amount'] == 1">
			{vb:rawphrase post_thanks_user_says, {vb:raw post.username}}
		<vb:else />
			{vb:rawphrase post_thanks_users_say, {vb:raw post.post_thanks_amount_formatted}, {vb:raw post.username}}
		</vb:if>
					{vb:raw post.post_thanks_bit}

postbit and postbit_legacy templates in lightweight style I don't have

Code:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/moderated_small.gif" alt="$vbphrase[moderated_post]" border="0" />
</if>
</div>
</if>

and the hooks would be

Code:

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_controls}
{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_end}

but the hooks are not working from what I can tell.. or something else..

dartho · #**836** 03-03-2012, 04:40 AM

ah - sorry, I did that under 3.8.7 as that's what I use

I will have look a tthe vb4 vesion

dartho · #**837** 03-03-2012, 07:22 AM

Should be able to get something up tonight for this...

thenamesgould · #**838** 03-03-2012, 09:36 AM

Dartho, if you have the time and inclination, it would be amazing if you could have a look at adding this thanks hack for vb4 ... https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=243510

Integrating Abe1's post thanks add-on into the lightweight style.

replace the following templates with the code provided (in the lightweight style only!!)
post_thanks_box

Code:

<if condition="$post_thanks_box"><div class="windowbg" id="post_thanks_box_$post[postid]">$post_thanks_box</div></if>

post_thanks_button

Code:

<a id="btn" href="post_thanks.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=post_thanks_add&amp;p={vb:raw post.postid}&amp;securitytoken={vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" id="post_thanks_button_{vb:raw post.postid}"<vb:if condition="$vboptions[disable_ajax] != 2"> onclick="return post_thanks_give({vb:raw post.postid}, <vb:if condition="$vboptions[post_groan_integrate]">true<vb:else />false</vb:if>);"</vb:if> <vb:if condition="$display_thanks_image == 'none'">style="display:none"</vb:if> rel="nofollow" class="post_thanks_button">{vb:rawphrase post_thanks_thanks}</a>

post_thanks_postbit

Code:

<vb:if condition="$post['post_thanks_amount'] == 1">
			{vb:rawphrase post_thanks_user_says, {vb:raw post.username}}
		<vb:else />
			{vb:rawphrase post_thanks_users_say, {vb:raw post.post_thanks_amount_formatted}, {vb:raw post.username}}
		</vb:if>
{vb:raw post.post_thanks_bit}

Edit both the postbit & postbit_legacy templates as follows

Search for:

Code:

<vb:if condition="$post['editlink']"><a id="btn" href="{vb:raw post.editlink}">{vb:rawphrase edit}</a></vb:if>

Add the following immediately above:

Code:

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_controls}

Then go to end of template and paste in:

Code:

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_end}

and your done!

dartho · #**840** 03-03-2012, 11:24 AM

Just noticed something else with the style in general - my last update only included updates to the postbit_legacy template which should have been made to both postbit and postbit_legacy (they are meant to be identical). I suggest overwriting the postbit template copying with the contents of the postbit_legacy template.
