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you are installing this on a vBulletin version higher than the current 'supported' version, and wish to get rid of the Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found!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

Thanks, but this works

// Disable "Forum Ad Management"
$vbulletin->options['vbam_forum_onoff']=0;

Glad you worked it out, but thats a different product, the previous will should still work with 'vB Ad Management'

Worked fine on my other Blackberry but now I have a new one and it's all white with blue text.

Does this work with vBulletin 3.8.3 guys?

[Biker_GA]

As the numerous posts in this thread state... Yes!

[Lynne]

Yes, it works with 3.8.3. However, if you want to use Social Groups on your phone/pda, you should edit those templates unless you just want to use default vb.

I don't see where I'm supposed to find the replacement variables at the bottom of the style options to enable images. Can someone point it out to me? Thanks!

Thank you! That worked very well. I have one final question.

What do I have to change so that when there is a new post in a thread, the thread title is in bold, but NOT in bold after the new post within it is read? The main page behaves this way with the categories-if there's a new post somewhere, the category title will be in bold.

I tried deleting all of the font-weight: bold lines out of the css file, but it didn't have any effect on anything! Thank you!!

I use this with the Mobile Option mod. I added a style switcher on the top. When I click on that, it goes to the forum home instead of the post/thread I was using with the mobile style. Is there anyway we can keep the same location and just switch the styleid?
