Mini Mods - Lightweight Style Options for "Lightweight Style"

Firstly - this is only of use if you have installed the Lightweight Style

Secondly - make sure you read the notes if you use the Mobile Style and the Mobile Style Options addon.

OK, now that the formalities are over, this is an add-on to the Lightweight Style It allows you to customise a few common parts of the style without needing to edit templates.

It also adds in options to disable some products when the Lightweight style is being used and optionally adds "Posted by Mobile Device" type text into posts created using the mobile style.

* Optionally adds links to default style (in footer or header)
* Optionally add 'Posted Via Mobile' message to new posts/threads (message can be customised)
* Optionally display "What's Going On" box in forum home
* Optionally display Style Chooser in footer
* Set 'Home' link URL (rather than editing templates)
* Can optionally hide mobile style from Style Chooser

Version Control:
1.0.0 - 26 AUG 2010 - Initial Release

Notes:
If you have installed "Mobile Style Options" (vb4) and make use of the 'Posted via Mobile Device' option, uninstalling Mobile Style Options will remove all records of posts made using the Mobile Style. The posts will of course remain, just the message will be gone. If this is not an issue for you - uninstall it BEFORE installing this addon. If you wish to keep those records, rather than uninstall it, disable it OR edit the product via Product Manager and remove all the uninstall code, save and then uninstall (this last option is the cleanest)

Running them both is OK, but you will need to disable the "Add Posted By Mobile Message to Post" plugin on the Mobile Style Options product. Uninstalling one of them will affect the other and cause errors as they share database columns. If you uninstall one without making the uninstall code changes, you shjould uninstall both and then re-install the one you are staying with.

Sad, people report errors but provide no further information which may help to resolve them.

Don't forget to click the "Mark as Uninstalled" link

This made my day...

It's like this:

Users cannot swicth to the PC version of the site. Tried all efforts but in vain.

I did not UnInstall, simply disabled, waiting for ur input. I meant, disabled in my previous msg.

I sent you a PM, please see what you can do. I doubt it's only me.

[dartho]

Thanks for the PM, Filgga - but you still haven't told me anything! I need error messages at least to find out where you are having a problem. What is the full database error message?

The database error was being caused by this:

 Set 'Mobile' & UA Field

as the new vB 4.1.4 tells me do not recognize 'UA' field in MySQL (sorry I did not copy the error).

I enabled the mod, disabled only that, the errors are gone (i did an edit above).

Still, users cannot switch between themes (to default theme).

U can visit my site (on my signature) via mobile and then via PC and see the difference.

This' after upgrading to vB 4.1.4; everything was OK before upgrading.

Looks like you're now upgrading http://vbdev.org/forum.php please test this and you'll see what we're facing

[dartho]

I upgraded to 4.1.4 on my test site and I get no errors and also have no issues switching styles.

how can i disable share browser details from guests? (via mobile text's descripton)

[dartho]

Edit the posted_by_mobile_device template and change the title in the anchor to something other than {vb:raw post_ua}

[dartho]

Sorry - saw you only want to do this for guests.

Change
{vb:raw post_ua}
to
<vb:if condition="$show['member']">{vb:raw post_ua}</vb:if>

in that same template and then there will be no tool tip for guests

[thenashy]

I have installed this, and have it all working. However, when viewing the mobile theme, when users click "Desktop" to go back to the default style, there is no style n umber displayed.

How does this noob fix that?
