Mobile Phone / iPhone / PDA Detection and Style Assignment
Developer Last Online: Oct 2023
This add-on will detect most mobile phones, iPhones, PDAs and other mobile browsing devices and automatically for the user to a specific vBulletin style.
What can it do? Detects most mobile phones and force the user to a specific style (users will not be able to select other styles from a mobile device with this add-on installed). If you have multiple styles installed which are optimized for small screen mobile devices, iPhones, WIndows Mobile devices you can assign a specific style to each of these groups. Whilst designed with mobile device users in mind, you could also assign styles to self defined browsers. For example you can assign an alternative style to Internet Explorer users whilst Firefox users get the default style. You could also assign an alternative style to Google or Yahoo spiders. Instructions: 0. Install styles which you wish to assign to Mobile/PDA/iPhone users - some links will appear at the bottom of this post 1. Download the product file 2. Install via Product Manager 3. Configure options via vBulletin Options, Mobile Device Detection (should appear at end) 4. Start browsing from your mobile device! 5. Click "Mark as Installed" If upgrading from a previous 3.5 or 3.6 version, you will need to uninstall that and the install this one. To uninstall simply uninstall the product - there are no database changes or additional files. Styles released on vBulletin which you can use: Dartho's Mobile, Cell, Phone, PDA, iPhone Style for vBulletin 3.7 (<-- yep, that's mine) ElForro's iPhone / iPod Touch Optimized Style Zachery's vB Lite Style vBMechanics Mobile Alabama Style Due to the stripped down nature of these mobile styles, you will find that most for 3.5 and 3.6 will work quite happily on 3.5, 3.6 & 3.7 although additional features introduced in vBulletin in recent years such as Social Groups, Blogs and Photo Galleries will not show well on a small screen. All should display your actual forums well. 3.6 Version can be found here Marked as Beta until I get some feedback, and 3.7 goes Gold Release Information 1.0.0 Initial release for 3.7 ported over from 3.6.8 version Show Your Support

Hi,
I installed this and tried to use it on my Nokia E63 however it isnt working. I get the usual message about javascript needing to be enabled even though it is but still. Any ideas? |

Is there any way to allow the users to override this using the &styleid= on the URL? I had this mod and the iPhone skin installed on a test board and I swear the normal button worked there. But now on our production board when a user clicks the normal button the &styleid is added to the URL but the mod just ignores it and sticks them with the iPhone skin.
If I use my computer and change to the iPhone skin, then click the normal button it does change back to the normal skin. Any ideas? |

I'm not sure if we installed the Patch Level 1 on the other server, maybe it has something to do with it? edit: If I disable this mod using the option in vBulletin Options the styleid links work on the mobile devices. |

Pardon me if this has been suggested or asked already...long day hehe
The way I've done redirects on the non forum part of my site is based on monitor width; over 1000 gets the grand web 2.0 javascript etc version, under it gets a blander version suitable for smaller monitors, googlebot, phones etc. Perhaps in a future version there can be that option? |

It would be better now - but when I originally wrote this, I was accounting for phones with very basic browsers - ie. no javascript. One of many things to look at for a new version...

Thanks for your work! |

I had this installed with your mobile style and mobile options for 4.0. One thing I noticed is if this is on, you can't over ride the style from my mobile phone. I have it setup to show the style change link in the footer, but it won’t let you change to the default style if you want to. What would be cool is if it auto detected initially, but still let the mobile user choose to override it and use the default style.
