Lightweight Style for VB3.8.7 iPhone/Mobile/Cell/PDA

A few have asked for this, hope you like it.

As the title suggests, this is a lightweight style for vBulletin 3.8.7 (and probably most versions before that - A quick test showed it also working under vBulletin 3.7.7!)

It's lightweight (low bandwidth) and works well on most handheld / mobile devices. Some have been know to use it on their desktops and I personally use it for Google as a way of significantly reducing the bandwidth they use.

====================
Install Instructions
====================

• Backup
• Download and extract ZIP file locally
• Upload contents of forum folder to your forum root
• Go into your AdminCP->Style Manager->Download / Upload Styles
• In the "Import Style XML File" section browse to "lightweight-vbulletin-3.8.7-style.xml" (extracted form the zip file)
• If you are running a version of vbulletin other than 3.8.7, select Yes in "Ignore Style Version"
• Click the "Import" button.
• Edit the header template and change the 2nd line to reflect the Style ID of your default style and location of your home page (forum.php or index.php) and text for the anchor (Default Style).
  

  <a class="toplinks" href="$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?<if condition="$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']">$_SERVER[QUERY_STRING]&amp;</if>styleid=1">Default Style</a>

• Return to vBulletin.org and click "Mark as Installed"

Thanks for the swift reply. Groups is way more important than blog for me, as groups are heavily used, while blog is rarely used.

Hi dartho!,

What could i've made wrong?

When users from a mobile phone get inside the forum they just get a page saying that they dont have permission and they must refresh the page.
And no login box appears.

Can you help me ?

[dartho]

@Lee - thanks, will fix in next release
@killerkraft - could you link me to your forum to look

[killerkraft]

Yes, of course.

www.digitalzapping.net

You will see the default style, and if you try to change to your style, witch i called "Estilo Portatil" before loggin in you will be stuck there.

Of course that if you login in the normal style and then change, everything will be ok.

Please check and advise.

Thanks,

KK
