Lightweight Style for VB3.8.7 iPhone/Mobile/Cell/PDA

A few have asked for this, hope you like it.

As the title suggests, this is a lightweight style for vBulletin 3.8.7 (and probably most versions before that - A quick test showed it also working under vBulletin 3.7.7!)

It's lightweight (low bandwidth) and works well on most handheld / mobile devices. Some have been know to use it on their desktops and I personally use it for Google as a way of significantly reducing the bandwidth they use.

Yes but I did a fair amount of customization:

Thank you so much for the link! That looks great. Where's the customization that wouldn't normally be there (if it's visible)? Also, has anyone tested this with the vbadvanced cmps?

[BirdOPrey5]

Doesn't work with vbadvanced cmps. I have it on my normal style but deactivated it on mobile.

Customizations are custom icons for each forum, different colors, different colors for stickly/closed threads, and links to OT in every forum/thread.

Thank you again for the quick replies. What does vba do if you have it activated on your mobile style? Just not render correctly, or something more serious like db errors?

I noticed your facebook like box wasn't working for me on the homepage. Could be something on my end, but just wanted to let you know. Also, where did you find the "Total websites who have referred visitors today" module that you use on your forum homepage? That's really slick! I searched vb.org up and down but couldn't find it.

Nevermind on the vba questions--I found the answer re-reading the thread.

As far as the facebook like box--looks like all of their social plugins seem to be acting screwy, so it must be them.

[dartho]

edit postbit and/or postbit_legacy template, search for

<div class="windowbg" align="right">

and add

<if condition="$show['reportlink']"><a id="btn" href="report.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[report_bad_post]</a></if>

immediately after it

How can I add RedTyger's ad-display plugin and PostThanks plugin? They are allready installed at my default style.

[dartho]

First - you need to provide links to these addons so I can look. Chances are it will mostly be a matter of template edits to get them working and looking right.
