Forum Display Enhancements - Different Domain, Different Style

This is a simple add-on which will force users to a specific style based on the url the user visited.

I wrote this with the idea of being able to create a subdomain of mobile.domainname.com and have visitirs to that URL forced to a mobile style whilst visitors to my normal site (domainname.com or www.domainname.com) would be rpesented with my regular style.

Alternatively if you have 2 domain names which point to the same forum, you can have a customized style based on the domain name visited. You can do what you want, but it may be as simple as only having a different banner reflecting the host name visited, or if you have merged 2 forums - users could still get the same skin they always have had if they continue to visit the same URL.

With the HOST matching be aware that if the URL specified in the add-on matches anywhere in the url visited, the add-on will be triggered.

e.g. if URL specified in add-on = domainname.com, any subdomains of domainname.com will match this.

You configure the options for this addon in your AdminCP. Then expand "vBulletin Options" on teh left, the click the "vBulletin Options" sub-menu on teh left, then on teh right pane double click on "Different Domain, Different Style" and set the options accordingly

I apologize to bother you
I am not exactly setting how to configure
I am attaching a screen shot
after entering vbulletin options I am not finding different domain different styles

It will likely be right at the end of the list....

How do you get different styles to show different forums?

e.g. Site 1.com has Category A and B
Site 2.com has Category C and D

Thanks in advanced.

I'm not the license police, but to do that you would require multiple licenses of vbulletin.

This addon can not do that, but it could probably be done with template conditionals

[fredang85]

will it be under showforum?

[fredang85]

in my sandbox.motorolafans.com, it shows everything propey, even in forum main, but if u go to any forum or thread, it can't detect css, or rather, it can, but doesn't show.

what makes?

[dartho]

Looking at the source to your site, the CSS path is relative. With the url re-writes the css fiule does not exist at the relative path when in any forum other than the forumhome

An immediate test/work around would be to edit your vbulletin options and select "No" to "Store CSS Stylesheets as Files?"

Great! That fixed it! Thanks alot!

are there anyone with login problems?

I let 2 domains point to the same place, but one's logged in while the other's not. is there a way out here?
