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** 25/08/2010 This style has been superceded by this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=249277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1.0.2 - Updated version numbers to 4.0.99 (should cover all 4.0 releases with the "Out of date templates" messages.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.

Yea, thanks. Just on my version of VB, I can't edit mobile style templates because of some error. VB always says, that some bracket is missing and refuses to save template. So, I am just waiting for fixed xml style file.

thanks alot

[raagaswaram]

how to make vsachatbox to work on this template?.

[raagaswaram]

At top header it shows like this instead of Home as "{$vbulletin->options['m037_home_link_text']}".How to solve this?.

[dartho]

Sorry.

This shows up if you have the mobile options addon installed in addition to this - I'll post a new version up soon, but in the mean time edit the navbar template in the mobile style and replace

<a class="navbar" href="{vb:raw $vbulletin->options['mo37_navbar_home']}{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{$vbulletin->options['mo37_home_link_text']}</a>

with

<a class="navbar" href="{vb:raw vboptions.mo37_navbar_home}{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:raw vboptions.mo37_home_link_text}</a>

@dartho, I have this style installed along with the optional add-on and it works great!

However, I have the Random Album Picture mod enabled which runs globally across all my styles above the forums... Just wondering if there is a way to disable it in this style only. I know this isn't a problem with your style, it works perfectly, just thought I'd get your opinion...

Thanks for this mobile style, I have needed it! :up:

[dartho]

could you link me directly to the mod you are using - there are several...

[McMendo]

I've tried it but I've found two problems:

If a member (or a visitor) chooses to try the style from a computer (not a mobile phone), he can't revert afterwards to another style because there is no style chooser available in the style.

If he visits the top domain page, this is the cms and the link to the forums doesn't work.

[dartho]

Install "Mobile Style Options" and configure the style chooser https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=229044 and also edit the navbar template in the mobile style and replace

<a class="navbar" href="{vb:raw $vbulletin->options['mo37_navbar_home']}{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{$vbulletin->options['mo37_home_link_text']}</a>

with

<a class="navbar" href="{vb:raw vboptions.mo37_navbar_home}{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:raw vboptions.mo37_home_link_text}</a>

This fixes a bug in the style. I'll be releasing an update real soon to address this.

Found the issue, when editing forum home, also search for

<div class="navbar">{vb:rawphrase todays_events</div>

and replace with

<div class="navbar">{vb:rawphrase todays_events}</div>

then search for

<a href="forumdisplay.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=markread">{vb:rawphrase mark_forums_read}</a>

and replace with

<a href="forumdisplay.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=markread&amp;markreadhash={vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase mark_forums_read}</a>
