Mobile, Cell, Phone, PDA, iPhone Style

vBulletin 4.0 version here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=228986

A very cut back style with very low bandwidth usage which renders well on pretty much all small screen devices from old Nokias to new iPhones.

• Supports viewing/posting/replying in forums
• Supports Private Messaging
• Supports Tags (viewing, not adding)
• Supports viewing and replying to messages in Social Groups
• Supports Thread Prefixes
• has an add-on product to customise here: Extend and Customise Mobile Style (It is recommended that you install this also, but not required)
• Supports other stuff too ....

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you are installing this on a vBulletin version higher than the current 'supported' version, and wish to get rid of the Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found!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...
• I suggest you also install this add-on to this style to get more out of it...
• 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

Install Instructions

• Save attached XML to your local computer
• Save attached wireless.css.txt, rename to wireless.css and upload to your forum root
• In AdminCP go to "Styles and Templates"
• In the "Import Style XML File" section browse to where you saved the XML
• Click "Import" button
• Come back to this page and click "Mark as Installed"

Other useful Add-ons to use in Conjunction with this style

• Extend and Customise Mobile 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

• Mobile Phone / iPhone / PDA Detection and Style Assignment

  Will automatically detect a mobile device and force the user to use a pre-defined style

• Different Domain, Different Style

  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
  

• Limit Posts/Thread per Page for a Specific Style

  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.
  

• How to hide a style from style chooser

  This template edit will allow you to 'hide' a style from the Style Chooser so users can't select a specified style.

You need to remove all of the replacement variables in this style for images to show fully in line

Ahh.. ok thanks Dartho. Gonna give it a shot now

**Edit**

That's perfect Dartho!! Thanks very much!

[rrudeboy]

oi dartho,

is there anyway you (or me if you tell me how :} can build-in a line break/wrap after x amount of characters, reason: if i post from my BB (me, and many other users) the post is like 2 feet wide which is kind of troublesome to proof read, re-read what you wrote.

if anybody else knows... chime in.

tks.

[struff]

Is there a way to make it suppress users' avatars?

Thanks.

WHere is this happening?

when a member posts using their Blackberry/Smartphone... it keeps going & going and never wraps, so 1. you don't see the entire reply until you submit and 2. it's troublesome to proof read and/or fix typos.

Just as a non-mobile style, people's avatars appear next to their names in messages that they post.

@Struff:
That's not correct. Either you have somehow modified the postbit/postbit_legacy template (reverted it?), or an add-on is doing this.

The postbit is meant to look something like the 3rd screen shot.

Try re-installing the style.

@dartho: how about the word wrap, is that something that can be done ?

We've been running it for about five or six months (or more, I don't really remember) and we're quite sure it this has always been the case for us. We installed the "Extend and Customise "Mobile" Style Options" add-on but that shouldn't be an issue, right?

Could it be because we use more current versions of vBulletin? We are running it on vB v3.8.2 now (we update vB as soon as we can). Because we are running 3.8.3 now it won't let us reinstall your mobile style. Do you have any plans on releasing a version for 3.8 or is there a patch or anything available to use it on 3.8?

Is there a way that we can manually edit or replace that template?

Thanks.
