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you are installing this on a vBulletin version higher than the current 'supported' version, and wish to get rid of the Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found!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.

Could somebody please tell me how to disable smilie images/graphics with this style?

I'm finding that its taking a lot longer to load pages which have smilies in them, so would like to just change them to text form or disable/remove them altogether.

Cheers in advance

i upgraded to latest vbulletin forum and now my mobile users can not find the post button for the forum they can write etc and then when they are about to send it the button is misisng and only the report shows up not the send ?

[Merriweather]

Could someone tell me:

(1) How to change it so instead of :-) for all smilies, you see the smilie code (i.e. :shocked: or whatever)? Seeing :-) when a user actually posted a hug or an angry face is just weird. :lol:

(2) How to put more space between the page numbers on showthread.php? Users complain of "fat fingers" issue and not having enough space to hit the right number.

Thank you!

For now, I've used the replacement variable to show (Emoticon) instead of the :-) and I think that will suffice. However, if anyone knows how to get it to show the actual smilie code, that would be even better!

Got this one with a replacement variable:

Search for text:

title="Show results

Replace with text:

style="padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 10px;" title="Show results

Edit the padding to your liking.

All templates have a version number which matches the vbulletin version they were last changed in. When a new release is installed, if templates in the new release have been modified for that release, a warning will be shown for all templates (in all styles) that have an older version number.

As this style (and thus its templates) is so cut back it is unlikely that there will need to be edits made. This is especially the case when there are no "mandatory template changes" (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showp...19&postcount=2)

Edit the 6 templates, make no changes, and then save and the warning messages will go away.

We're going to have this issue every other month now that there are scheduled releases.

You could alternatively download and edit the XML and do a search and replace on 3.7.2 for 3.7.3.

I am running in 3.8.1 Patch level 1, seems to work fine. However there are now 36 out of date templates. I also have the device detection mod and your style installed, hence the higher number. Rather than edit all the templates, I could edit the XML files and add 3.8.1?

[dartho]

@Tourmeister - Yes you could do that..

[yahoooh]

i wait for 3.8
there are groups and other new features
hope that will be supported also vblog

For some odd reason it shows a TON of ads on my site. Like a mile of them that you have to scroll down before you get to the forum.

I can't find it in any of the templates.

But if you use the mobile style on a PC the ads don't display.

I'm not sure when the problem started since I don't look at my own website with my phone often, but when I first installed it I didn't have this problem.
