iPhone / iPod Touch Optimized Skin

If you use my style, please click "Mark as Installed" in the Mod Information box -->

I made this Skin based on www.elforro.com colors and it has hardcoded CSS; so you would need to change some CSS values to match your forum style.

Many people ask me to share the style, so I did my best to make it as "default" as I could.

I spent a lot of time working on this skin, so if you decide to use it on your forums, PLEASE leave the "Design by:" legend. (it's only at the bottom)

Demo: http://www.elforro.com/index.php?styleid=15

( or go to www.elforro.com from your iPod / iPhone and click on the legend for the Optimized Skin )

-------
To show a message to all your iPod / iPhone users, you just need to add something like this in your navbar template (in your default style)

PHP Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
    if ((navigator.userAgent.indexOf('iPhone') != -1) || 
    (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('iPod') != -1)) {
        document.write("<a href=\"$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?<if condition="$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']">$_SERVER[QUERY_STRING]&amp;</if>styleid=[B]XX[/B]\">iPhone Style</a>")
    }
</script> 


(Change XX to your iPhone style number and write whatever you want instead of "iPhone Stlye")
--------


Screenshots: (Below the post)

You have to upload (and change the color/hue maybe) 4 PNG images in images/misc/ folder (included in the ZIP).

Please keep all of my copyright info in this style. Please do NOT redistibute this style on any other sites! (It's free!)

Does anyone have a working horizontal postbit template with the same information/functionality of the postbit_legacy?

(name, last post, location, moderation yellow/red card, etc?)

[Brother Malachi]

Two questions:

1) Is there a way to add "Posted via iPhone" to every post/pm?
2) How can I change the colors of the button images? Is there a tutorial on how to make those in photoshop somewhere?

[mac-warez]

you can change the color of the buttons by opening them in photoshop and pressing command+u for mac or control+u for windows. then just change the hue and saturation until you get a color you want. then do the same for the rest of the images. then save them and upload them they wont match the css so go into the css editor and change the colors up to match your buttons. if you need any further explanation i would be glad to help.

it would be nice if when clicking "Quote" it could bring up a page that looked like the "New Thread" page, only with the quote loaded

I hate to even ask, but is this working with 3.8.x?

The down side is not being able to see the sub categories (forums). I read that I can search for it here and find something about adding new templates and what have you. But still not sure why it would not show to begin with. I mean, the main site shows sub fourms inside the other forums, I would think this style would also. Not sure why it would not.

Thanks again for the work on this.

David,

I'm a member of AVSForums, and took a look using the iPhone beta skin. Can't really tell the difference from the site on my PC. Did you get this fixed?

Not yet, but I can try to work on that. Do you have an example site where I can see how you'd be using it?

I know the regular mobile style by Dartho has the ability to add 'Posted via Mobile Device' to every post, but haven't quite seen where he hooks that in. Shouldn't be too hard to do.
As for colors, it's in the CSS. Took me quite a while of fiddling to get away from the green that El Forro originally used.

Rich, I just fixed that in a new version, try the one I'm uploading now.

Sorry, no idea as of yet, haven't upgraded to 3.8.x yet. I'll be sure to post any changes I make when I do.

Ok, after some digging, I found how to take care of number 1, but only for posts. I tried for PM's, but it doesn't seem to work.

To add this, you have to add a plugin. I'm including the plugin that I have for my board. You will need to edit this to use the styleid for your mobile style. In the file, change the 10 in

($styleid==10)

to be what ever the styleid for your mobile skin. If anyone has any ideas on how to get this to work for PM's, let me know. Thanks,

Sorry for the delay... In regards to seeing sub forums...I just made the setting is "Forum Listings Display Options" as the following...

Depth of Forums - Forum Home = 2
Depth of Forums - Forum Display = 2
Depth of Sub-Forums = 3

and that seemed to do the trick.

The only issue I have now is that the forum title get in the way of the nav options as they over lap. Otherwise, all seems well for what it does.

[reimic]

is it possible to change automatic in the iphone style when a iphone user enter the forum?
