Notes
If you are installing this on a vBulletin version higher than the current 'supported' version, and wish to get rid of the Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found! errors, see Post #329 for more information...
To modify the colour scheme of this style, you have to edit the wireless.css file by hand

Other useful Add-ons to use in Conjunction with this style
This is a companion add-on designed specifically for this style which allows you to customise some aspects of it without the need to edit templates. Only works with version 0.0.8 and above
Will force the user to a predefined style based on URL visited (eg. visiting mobile.yourdomain.com will force the user to use a pre-defined mobile style wilst www.yourdomain.com will display your defaultstyle to the user
Will set the maximum number of posts and threads displayed on a page based on a style. Whilst you may want to display 25 threads per page on a desktop, a small screen/mobile device would probably benefit from only showing 5 - 10 threads per page.
I have tried turning vBSEO off and on, and it is definitely the cause of the base href inclusion. I have asked on thieir forum if it is possible to turn it off.
In the mean time, I have been trying to install Google Mobile Adsense, without any luck. Do the hooks not work in this mobile style?
I tried a conditional clause on the style id in a new plugin like this, wrapped around the adsense code, but can't get it to appear for any of the main hooks:
Code:
if($GLOBALS[foruminfo][styleid]==8)
{
}
Admittedly my understanding and experience of the hook system is extremely limited.
No, the template hooks will need to be added. I believe Dartho was going to do this, not too sure now, however. It's pretty easy to add the hooks, though.
Dartho I hope you don't mind this. I HAD to get this working, so I thought I would offer everyone a bandaid until Dartho gets back. I thought I would share in case anyone is stuck after moving to 3.7 today.
Okay I had to get this working, since I have already moved to 3.7 and I have mobile users
I am still getting that message. I have done the final update as suggested after going from 6.10 to 7 from vb.com. I don't know how to get this to work properly.

I did add these, and also managed to get Mobile Adsense working (with some manual work - no product for this sorry) but then trashed my dev server to do test runs on upgrading my live one... I'll look into it real soon and post an up date with the template ad hooks in and also soem guidelines on how to integrate mobile adsense...
