Forum Style - Lightweight Style for Small Screen Devices (cell phone, iphone, mobile, android)
Developer Last Online: Oct 2023
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:
1.0.0 - 25 AUG 2010 - Initial Release on vBulletin.orgBranding 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. Download Now

F.A.Q.
Q. How can I integrate Abe1's Post Thanks Hack? A. See here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...43#post2305643 Q. There is no style chooser - how do I get back to the default style? A. Install and configure "Lightweight Style Options" Q. What bits of the CSS change which colours? A. Download and unzip the attached "CSS Image Basic Map.zip" file to a temp directory, open "css-map.html" and hover your mouse over the section you're interested in changing the colour of - it will tell you the variable in the lightweight.css.php file to edit. At the moment, it only shows the background colour, but it is intuitive to work out the foreground colour (var name ends in FC as opposed to BG) If you need to get more granular, you're on your own Q. I Have VBAdvanced installed in integration m ode and it messes up this style. A. as per post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=167 with a minor chnage, create a plugin: Product: vBulletin Hook Location: Global Complete Title: Disable vBAdvanced for Lightweight Style Execution Order: 2 Code: PHP Code:
Q. Can we resize the images? A. A simple javascript image resizer can be added to the header template. check the following post (and the one immediately after it) https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...07#post2184007) Alternatively, you can use replacement variables to turn images into links, check this post: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...nt#post2097304 *** ALL OF THE FOLLOWING BLOCK SHOULD BE RESOLVED IN THE LATEST VERSION 1.0.3 *** Q. The CSS is incomplete, I see Code:
body { color: ; background:; margin: 0px; font-size .... A. I used short tages in the CSS.PHP file which may not be enabled on all systems. [s]In the next release I'll update to not use these. In teh mean time, unzip and upload the attached lightweight.css.longtag.zip file and use it instead.[/s] Install the latest CSS version - this has been fixed Q. Could you use the same paging system like vb standard styles in thread view so that user can choose first/last page instead of navigating it one by one? A. Yes! It will get included when I release again, in the mean time check out post 103 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=103) Q. The editor is messed up in 4.1.4 - how to fix? A. See https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=397 for a fix. Q. The option to hide "What's Going On" / "Who's Online" isn't working with the 'Lightweight Style Options' add-on A. See this post for a fix: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...31#post2264831 Q. The PM list is showing "Array" rather than the sender A. See this post: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...97#post2271597 Q. My New Reply page is screwed up with vertical cmilies and stuff A. Delete the contents of the editor_clientscript template and replace the contents of the editor_ckeditor template with that of the editor_toolbar_off template Q, Birthdays are just showing as "Array" on forumhome? A. See thread https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...72#post2273172 Q. I see Array instead of thread tags? A. See post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=618 Q. I see <br /> instead of line breaks when quoting, full reply A. See post: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=617 if this doesn;t work, check this post also************************************************** ****************************** Q. How do I get rid of all those template out of date messages in control panel home? A. You could edit and save each one without actually making changes or you could run the following query on your database: UPDATE template SET version = '4.1.9', mergestatus = 'none' WHERE styleid=XX; change XX to the styleid number of the mobile style and 4.1.9 to whatever the version number currently is. ########## TO BE FIXED IN NEXT RELEASE VERSION 1.0.4########## Q. How do I add 'Next' 'Prev' in Pagenav? A. See post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...73#post2280973 |

This looks very smart Dartho, I have installed it. I've submitted a test post and when you hit reply it quotes the text which is great, once I type in my message and hit submit the post submits however it does not return you to the forum, instead you get the quote box with your text just sitting waiting on being submitted.
