BlackBerry Development is typically difficult because of the amount of different operating systems / carriers / phones.

There are 2 aspects to this plugin

1) The vBulletin code
2) The BlackBerry App

If you have issues, you can provide this thread with the following:
  1. Your Forum URL
  2. Make and Model of your BlackBerry
  3. Operating System Version (4.5+)
  4. Your Provider
  5. The problem you are having

This app has been tested on ALL simulators for BlackBerrys with OS 4.5+ Installed. (Pearl, Curve, Bold, Bold 2, Gemini, Storm, Storm 2etc.. )

vBulletin Install

- Download the attached vBulletin Code
- Unzip to your forum root directory.
- There will be one file in your root named mobiforum.php and a new directory called m_functions
- Find the config file in /m_functions/config.php and edit it to your needs
- Change the icon "forum_large_icon.png" to your forum icon.

BlackBerry Install

OS 4.5+ and OS 4.7 Storm / Storm 2

Use your BlackBerry browser to surf to:

http://www.BerryBlab.com/

If you can't see our mobile download page, surf to

http://www.BerryBlab.com/MobileDevice.aspx


Once installed:

- Open the software
- Press the "BlackBerry Key" and select "Add Forum"
- Type in the full http://address.com/ to your forum, (where you extracted your zip file), including backslash.

That should be it. Your forum should be listed and you can now surf using your blackberry, natively. Use the "options" menu when you are viewing your forum to sign in.

This software comes with an Update Check for your BlackBerry, so you should only need to install it once on your phone and it will check for Updates everytime you connect with it.

You will (as a forum administrator) have to keep up with the updates on the vBulletin side however.

Note: Your typical data usage charges apply when using this.

I will do my best to supply as much support as possible for all your phone types / forums.

Please make sure you post a LINK to your forum so that I can test it on my own BlackBerry as well as add it to the list above.

^^ Since your forum is marked as "private" you will have to log in as a user with access before it will actually show your forums. This will show up as the error you described above.

Can you give me an account on your site so that I can continue to debug further?

being my test site, the forums are actually of.. totally forgot because in the web interface i have the option to login, with this app there is no login option that i could see so it just errored.

once i turned forums on it worked

so the cause was me forgetting that forums were off, but in future versions maybe more descriptive error, or the option to login even tho they are turned off

Storm Users:

http://www.BerryBlab.com/betastorm/berryblabstorm.jad

I will do something official tomorrow with an email, but I'm super tired. If you see this post, then you're part of the few that have the Storm Version now

Oh keep in mind if you did install the non-storm version of berryblab, you MUST uninstall it before installing this version or you will get some conflicting errors.

Update

I'm excited about this upcoming release. I have implemented several requested improvements, but it will be a few days before I release both the storm and keyboard versions. I need to test a few more things, the next update includes:

- "Friendly" Error Messages
- Connection Fix - check if the user has been logged out by the system and retry the login
- Notify the user they are not logged in on the main screen, added a button to allow them to login
- Separated forum options and login options
- Added Security Features

I will likely release this as "BerryBlab 1.0".


Forum Owners:


Please remember to sign up on http://www.BerryBlab.com and add your forum to our database. This will be the only way I can "prove" that you have helped with this Beta Test so that I can send you this software for free for your Beta Testing troubles. This is also one of the best ways to keep in touch with the latest updates and events happening at BerryBlab.

ALSO

I know there have been a few emails from people regarding their site not working with berryblab and I haven't gotten back to them yet - it's been hectic (this isn't my full time job) and I'm hoping the next release fixes your issues.

Small Update ..

If you are giving your users the direct link to the download, I would suggest having them surf to:

http://www.BerryBlab.com/

This will automatically detect their browser and put them to a page with the proper download for either Storm or Keyboard device.

If their browser is not detected, the direct link to the mobile site is:

http://www.BerryBlab.com/MobileDevice.aspx

I suggest you change all of your links to the above address to avoid confusion for your users downloading.


I am now fully supporting the Storm / Storm 2 Beta! It is available for download on the above page.


Thanks!
