Mobile, Cell, Phone, PDA, iPhone Style

vBulletin 4.0 version here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=228986

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.

• Supports viewing/posting/replying in forums
• Supports Private Messaging
• Supports Tags (viewing, not adding)
• Supports viewing and replying to messages in Social Groups
• 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 ....

Notes

• If you are installing this on a vBulletin version higher than the current 'supported' version, and wish to get rid of the Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found! errors, see Post #329 for more information...
• I suggest you also install this add-on to this style to get more out of it...
• To modify the colour scheme of this style, you have to edit the wireless.css file by hand
• If you use a portal such as vbadvanced which you wish to disable in mobile style, see here

Install Instructions

• Save attached XML to your local computer
• Save attached wireless.css.txt, rename to wireless.css and upload to your forum root
• In AdminCP go to "Styles and Templates"
• In the "Import Style XML File" section browse to where you saved the XML
• Click "Import" button
• Come back to this page and click "Mark as Installed"

Other useful Add-ons to use in Conjunction with this style

• Extend and Customise Mobile Style

  This is a companion add-on designed specifically for this style which allows you to customise some aspects of it without the need to edit templates. Only works with version 0.0.8 and above

• Mobile Phone / iPhone / PDA Detection and Style Assignment

  Will automatically detect a mobile device and force the user to use a pre-defined style

• Different Domain, Different Style

  Will force the user to a predefined style based on URL visited (eg. visiting mobile.yourdomain.com will force the user to use a pre-defined mobile style wilst www.yourdomain.com will display your defaultstyle to the user
  

• Limit Posts/Thread per Page for a Specific Style

  Will set the maximum number of posts and threads displayed on a page based on a style. Whilst you may want to display 25 threads per page on a desktop, a small screen/mobile device would probably benefit from only showing 5 - 10 threads per page.
  

• How to hide a style from style chooser

  This template edit will allow you to 'hide' a style from the Style Chooser so users can't select a specified style.

You can edit the wireless.CSS file and set sizes in there.

change the font: 10pt verdana; in the body section to be the size you want

*** Never Mind ***

I figured it out

[dartho]

hhmmm... It *should* already be showing a link to any attachments ...

Just had a look at DHAZ - seems to be OK there to me ...

nah it wasn't before i had to remove the "replacement" that you put and then it showed links for certain or thumbnail for others Thanks

[dartho]

Just had a look over things - Human Verification shouldn't be an issue for question/answer or captcha. I haven't successfully got reCaptcha to work yet though. I'll release an update soon.

I'll make having tag cloud in search pages an option in the add-on for this Style. It can be turned off for all styles in vbulletin options.

I could not reproduce the edit signature issue reported by L2V. Anyone else able to reproduce this (read first post ion this page)

Great Mod!!

Question: We have several Cricket users who can not log into our forum. However, when they are not on a cricket mobile phone, they are able to log on. Is there an existing fix for this issue?

Thanks!!!

[john102774]

Sorry for the lack of info but I'm using VB 3.7.3

Their password is not recognize on the cricket phone. Thanks again!

[Tanpapasmurf]

nvm, great style

[dartho]

Never heard of a 'Cricket' mobile phone, and don't know of any issues where people can't log on.

Are they able to configure their browser to allow cookies?

Ok maybe I am retarded but I am testing this out via a "regular broswer" and it asks me for user authentication every time. Thoughts?
