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you are installing this on a vBulletin version higher than the current 'supported' version, and wish to get rid of the Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found!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
If you use a portal such as vbadvanced which you wish to disable in mobile style, see here

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.
There's no ad stuff in this style (apart from the ad_location termplate hooks), not even any 'sample code'. I'd be checking my ad software and temapltes to see where the issue is.
Assuming they are hooking into the template hooks, and you don;t want to show ads in your mobile style, you could delete them from the templates. Search the Mobile templates for $ad_location and remove the template hooks
Unfortunately this does not work in 3.8.1 for me. Asides that it does not support chat, blog & groups( which was to be expected), it also does not display profiles. Posting new threads or using quick reply does not work. Please consider to add a 3.8 version.

On my 3.8.1 site groups are the only native vBulletin component to no longer disaplay correctly (although individual group pages are OK)
Everything else is working as designed. I will be working on a 3.8 version when I get the time and opportunity

I went through and removed all the $ad_location, and they're still there.
There must be something I'm missing.
It's strange it only shows up on a phone, and not the PC using the mobile style.
Hi Guys, i have vbulletin 3.8.1 with this style working just perfect!
i decided to install VBSEO and the problems began to happen:
when you reply via mobile, the Forum actually takes it but iit does not update/refresh the page to see the reply (it does not matter if you do a quick reply or not), it only does it when the reply must generate a new page, otherwise you have to manually refresh the page to see the replied done.
on the other hand, when you re-enter the thread containing new replies it does not update itself you have to manually update to see them.
This happen after getting VBSEO installed and running and ONLY with the Mobile Style, on the PC it works perfect... any advice about it?
