Forum Style - Mobile Style for vBulletin 4.0

** 25/08/2010 This style has been superceded by this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=249277

However, you can run them both if you know you have older mobile phones accessing your site as they may be able to render this one better **




This is a port of my mobile style from 3.7/3.8 to 4.0.0.

It is 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.

Currently it only supports forums/thread/posts/PMs. Recent vBulletin features such as Social Groups, Albums, Blogs are not supported (although they should still disaplyin a not-so-mobile-friendly way...)

Further customise this style with Mobile Style Options!

• Supports viewing/posting/replying in forums
• Supports Private Messaging
• Supports Tags (viewing, not adding)
• 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 ....

Version Control
1.0.0 - Initial Relase from 3.7
1.0.1 - Fixed issue with "Friendly URL's" not being compatible
1.0.2 - Updated version numbers to 4.0.99 (should cover all 4.0 releases with the "Out of date templates" messages. Removed Replacement Variables.
1.0.3 - Fixed known template bugs


Install Instructions

1. Save wireless.css.txt to wireless.css and uppload to your forum root
2. Save XML style file and install via AdminCP

Notes

• To change style attributes, you need to edit the CSS file
• Please leave copyright and the link as they are - it links to a very niche forum which is very ulikely to detract from or take members form your own.

As you were.

This..

Additionally, is there a way to remove the hardcoded version number from the templates? Or make it so when you do update VB, it allows the changes to be merged rather than having the "You have X outdated templates" glaring at you whenever you log in to AdminCP.

May be able to make a plugin which disables CMS.

As for template versions - nothing to do about that sorry, it's teh way vB works. However, I *may* be able to make a php script that updates version numbers, maybe ...

I have a query which should sort out all those template conflicts:


---snip---snip---
UPDATE `DBNAME`.`template` SET `version` = '4.0.0', `mergestatus` = 'none' WHERE `template`.`styleid` =XX;
/---snip---snip---

change DBNAME to the name of your database,XX to the styleid number of the mobile style and 4.0.0 to whatever the version number currently is.

4.0.0 worked for me with PL1. I subsequently changed it to 4.0.1 to see what would happened - it didn't have an issue, so you could probably up the version number to 4.0.99 if you wanted to - someone wanna test?

You'll have to change the above query to take any database prefix into account.

You might want to take a look at Replacement Variables.
It renders smileys with a ':-)' after them.
I removed them and worked nicely.

Great skin! How would I enable the use of adverts?
I put in my Ad Code in the footer, but it doesn't show in the skin....

Any Chance to Integrate it to CMS?
