Mobile Phone / iPhone / PDA Detection and Style Assignment
Developer Last Online: Oct 2023
This add-on will detect most mobile phones, iPhones, PDAs and other mobile browsing devices and automatically for the user to a specific vBulletin style.
What can it do? Detects most mobile phones and force the user to a specific style (users will not be able to select other styles from a mobile device with this add-on installed). If you have multiple styles installed which are optimized for small screen mobile devices, iPhones, WIndows Mobile devices you can assign a specific style to each of these groups. Whilst designed with mobile device users in mind, you could also assign styles to self defined browsers. For example you can assign an alternative style to Internet Explorer users whilst Firefox users get the default style. You could also assign an alternative style to Google or Yahoo spiders. Instructions: 0. Install styles which you wish to assign to Mobile/PDA/iPhone users - some links will appear at the bottom of this post 1. Download the product file 2. Install via Product Manager 3. Configure options via vBulletin Options, Mobile Device Detection (should appear at end) 4. Start browsing from your mobile device! 5. Click "Mark as Installed" If upgrading from a previous 3.5 or 3.6 version, you will need to uninstall that and the install this one. To uninstall simply uninstall the product - there are no database changes or additional files. Styles released on vBulletin which you can use: Dartho's Mobile, Cell, Phone, PDA, iPhone Style for vBulletin 3.7 (<-- yep, that's mine) ElForro's iPhone / iPod Touch Optimized Style Zachery's vB Lite Style vBMechanics Mobile Alabama Style Due to the stripped down nature of these mobile styles, you will find that most for 3.5 and 3.6 will work quite happily on 3.5, 3.6 & 3.7 although additional features introduced in vBulletin in recent years such as Social Groups, Blogs and Photo Galleries will not show well on a small screen. All should display your actual forums well. 3.6 Version can be found here Marked as Beta until I get some feedback, and 3.7 goes Gold Release Information 1.0.0 Initial release for 3.7 ported over from 3.6.8 version Show Your Support

The mobile is a redirect to my forum using this style. For anyone else interested, to help my users stay logged in i've created a forum(link) to one of my other styles. Example in the forum index at the bottom is a forum (Link) called Mobile Out. If the user clicks the link it directs them to one of my other styles. From there they can do whatever it is they want. I've had some blackberry reports saying the drop down menu doesn't work, so i created the mobile subdomain as an easy option to get into the style. So easy in, easy out. |

I just got an iPod Touch and checked out my site with it. It always shows the "light skin" even though I have turned OFF the iphone/itouch detection.
Anyone else have this problem? |

That is by design. You need to enable iPhone detection, and tell it which skin to use - even if it just the default one.
'Mobile Device Detection' detects ALL mobile devices. Enabling PDA / iPhone / Custom device detection then overrides the style set initially by the Mobile detection with the one you specify. |

I had to do this for my wife. The useragent string is:
400x240 LGE VX10000 Added it under Custom/User Defined Useragent String and it worked fine. |
