iPod-Hacking.com's mobile skin

iPod-Hacking.com's mobile skin V1.0.0

This is my first release of the skin that I have developing for my forum.

Live Board

The instillation for this board is a bit more elaborate due to the custom status icons.

Installation:
1) Upload the file in the folder names "put in root of fourm" to your forums root directory.
2) Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Download / Upload Styles -> Upload iPod-Hacking.com V1.0.0.xml
3) Configure the status icons*
4) Done!

Credits:
-- Status Icon's - Any Apple developers who's i used
-- Skin based off of ElForro iPhone skin
--Menu based off of Justins mobile skin
* the status icons are located in the put "in root of fourm/iPhone/statusicon" directory. All status icons are assigned by forum id.

Example
You have a forum named announcements. The forum ID to it is 12. You would Name the picture that you would like to assign to that forum 12.png

In order the find forum id look in the URL bar when inside that forum.

http://ipod-hacking.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=104

Notice how it end is f=104
The forum id to that forum is 104.
So in order to put a status icon next to it i would need to have a picture named 104.png in the statusicon folder

In the extras folder their are PSDs that can be used to create the status icons.
Status icons are in a 50X50 format.
The best way to achive that size is to open the rendericon.psd
Click on one of the boaders.
Resize the icon so that it fits in the boarder.
Click back on the boarder and go to Select>load section> load the boarder.
Click back on the icon and press the delete key.

That will delete any extra color around the icons making perfectly rendered icons. For best results its better to cut a little off the icons then make them to small.

How can I enable categories to be clickable / larger? All my forums are subforums categorized. This style is great, but unfortunately useless to us at its current state :/

How can I modify this theme so it does not have a custom forum status icon? I would like to have just 1 standard forum icon.

Wow.. ive been looking for an iDevice skin for a while now but none have been very good!

This one just blew me awak when i installed it! Its awesome, great job!

Im running 4.0 beta 5 and i have found one minor bug in the menu button when using my iphone to browse my forum, The option 'your posts', when opened, the theme is mixed between this skin and my website skin.. the screen is also out of proportion as i must scroll left and right to be able to read / view my posts.

If you can fix this that would be great!

I recommend this style to anyone, Thanks allot

Where can I alter the width of the page navigations at the top and bottom of both forums and threads? I don't wish to have it stretch the whole of the screen.

Thanks.

EDIT: Nvm, I adjusted the ul width in additional css.

You can fix the "Your Posts" screen being "Out of Proortion" by setting the Stylevar doc_minWidth to 280px

Buggered if I can get any colors to change thou.....

VB4.0PL1

Can anyone else get this going properly?

[Kat00]

Getting errors when logging in, I just about give up.

[Kat00]

Overcame the logging in and out problem.....

The only thing I can't get working with this style in V4.0 is page 2 in any thread or post for some reason its calling for a page that doesn't exist.

The info is there because if I make a new post in a existing thread with more than one page....... and then view todays posts and go to page 2 that way it works........

Close but no cigar.

This style is for version 3.8 not 4.0

[accludetuner]

Searched and I didn't see anyone else with this problem.

I know this is for iPhones, but it also works and looks great on other phones as well. I have one member with a Blackjack2 phone running Windows Mobile 6. The style works great for him too with the exception of one thing. If he posts, everything works great. If he goes to edit his post, it shows all of the HTML within the post. After he edits, the HTML code is visible in the post to everyone. Not sure what would cause this on just that one type of phone. Any ideas?

EDIT: Here's an example of his edited post:
