Forum Display Enhancements - Mobile Style Options 4.0

This is an add-on for the 4.0 version of my Mobile style. If you do not have this style installed, it is of no use to you!

It adds options to your vBulletin Options for customizing:

• Optionally adds links to default style (in footer or navbar)
• Optionally add 'Posted Via Mobile' message to new posts/threads (message can be customised)
• Optionally display "What's Going On" box in forum home
• Optionally display Style Chooser in footer
• Set 'Home' link URL (rather than editing templates)
• Can hide mobile style from Style Chooser

Install the latest Mobile style (should have same version number as this addon, but may have a different alpha char on end of version number)

Install this add-on and set your options

Version History
1.0.1 - Initial Release port from 3.x
1.0.2 - Fixed up 'Posted via Mobile' options

You can modify how the message displays by editing the "posted_by_mobile_device" template, you could even edit the hook location and have it display above the post

1.0.3 - Reality check for this with issues, no new functionality
1.0.4 - small install change which should stop timeouts on sites with large post tables

Looking forward to an update.

Tested it in Japan on 3 carriers and there were no changes.

I noticed in your php array:

$mobilebrowsers = array(
"320x240",

These are the majority sizes in Japan so it should work, i thought. but it did not.
The top part that shows a problem is the "register", "help", "User login info" and the "search" part are all overlapping the top part of the device view. Everything else is ok. Design-wise, red!?

So I added the devices we use in Japan:

"panasonic"
"docomo"
"softbank"
"sony"
"samsung"
"panasonic"
"sanyo"
"sharp"
"vodafone"
"casio"
"au-mic"

and now i can see the mobile version on my Casio in Japan, BUT i see an error in both the mobile device and my PC site:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in /home/USER/public_html/forum/includes/class_bootstrap.php(748) : eval()'d code on line 75

Is there a way that you can fix this?
Thank you

This add-on adds a few options to my mobile style. It has no style or detection options itself. You don;t even have this add-on marked as "Installed"

Now assuming the issues lay with the Mobile Device Detection addonWhere did you add the list of devices above to the "Custom/User Defined Useragent String" section? If so, you should add them comma seperate with no quotes. eg panasonic,docomo,softbank,sony,samsung,panasonic,s anyo,sharp,vodafone,casio,au-mic

if the "Red?" comment is to do with my Mobile style - I don't recall actually using red?

I'm happy to help where I can - but it is easiest for me to do so when questions etc are placed against the actual addon causing the issue. Thanks

Ill clear the style forcing and see what happens. Thank you for your reply to this.

since the style doesnt work for CMS, is there a way to redirect mobile user to forum instead of CMS when accessing vbull root? thanks

I know - I have to re-implement that, I have the code ready to go,it's just a matter of putting it in and releasing... I may release as a seperate mod and remove from this one actually as it has relevance to others also ...
