Lightweight Style for Small Screen Devices (cell phone, iphone, mobile, android)
![]() Developer Last Online: Aug 2023 ![]() ![]() ![]()
A lightweight *forum only style aimed at small screen devices such as Windows Smartphones, Nokias and even iPhones. It has VERY low bandwidth requirements - 15 times less on my site - 20K as opposed to 300K for forumhome.
*forum only - I have done a very small amount of rough work on CMS templates, a simple single column CMS *could* be created to work with this style without too much effort. However I am not sure if you can have a different CMS layout dependent on which style you are using? This is an update to the mobile style I have previously released. The changes are predominantly aesthetic to take advantage of larger screens. It is also much easier to change colour schemes by editing the commented CSS file. Demo: http://vbdev.org/forum.php?styleid=7 This is a a lightweight style and as such has much reduced functionality/information over the default vBulletin style. Install instructions:
1.0.0 - 25 AUG 2010 - Initial Release on vBulletin.orgBranding Free: The style is free to use. However I ask that you keep links in the footer. If you want to remove them - send me a donation of an amount you can afford, or that you think is fair/reasonable, it's up to you how much.

![]() For the ads, I did locate the forumhome_ads_code template in your lightweight style and emptied it so it was blank. It worked PERFECT as well !! ![]() See attached pic as to how a forum with ads and stickies now appears. NO graphic ads in lightweight style now and the stickies seem fine now, yet the ads and stickies are also fine in the main default site graphics style. Thank you very much !!! I have sent a second PayPal donation for you help in solving these integration issues with your lightweight style … ![]() Regards, Doug No members have liked this post.

I just installed this style and it completely broke my forum. All my forums are completely messed up now. I tried deleting the mobile style I imported in Style Manager, but that didn't help. I don't know what I did wrong, but can someone please help?

I added the mobile style via Style Manager in vBulletin, but it destroyed everything. Everything is messed up horribly. All my styling was gone, everything was stripped down and all out of wack.
I tried to re-import my old style but that reverted everything to the standard vbulletin styling. Worse, when I go to certain subforums now, I get a blank screen, sometimes even when I try my home page. I deleted the mobile style and deleted the css file from my root forum directory but neither changed anything. Looking at my old main style in Style Manager, everything is in red meaning it's been overwritten. I have no idea what do here. No members have liked this post.

Figured out that the blank screen was being caused by one of the child styles I had was royally messed up. I switched that forum to a different style that seemed to be working and it's coming up now. It's just that all the styling I had done previously is gone. I've started fixing a couple things manually to create some semblance of normalcy, but it's still a giant mess.

Thanks. Looks like that's what happened. Unfortunately, I'm not sure I can follow their fix. Since what I originally did completely broke everything, I tried to re-import the Master style so I could at least read the board. Unfortunately, it seems doing that over-wrote all my custom styling and I have no idea how to get it back.

no - the php file generates the CSS output. Have a look inside and you'll see what I mean.
@PSC001 - sorry to hear about the grief. Can't believe this is still not fixed after a year ... No members have liked this post.

Is there some way of having external pics that people refer to using the IMG code, be shown smaller so they don't overflow the right side of the screen causing the display to have to be scrolled sideways?
We use SevenSkins Image Resizer which works for all our other regular PC screen skins, but doesn't seem to be present in this Lightweight Style. Thanks for any feedback .. ![]() Regards, Doug No members have liked this post.

For some reason the mobilelogo.png does not display in the header, and apparently there is no reference to $Logo anywhere in the code, as it is. It is specified in the definitions, but beyond there, it's not in the page generation code.
How do I place the logo in the header? No members have liked this post.

@Daffy - The logo is defined in the CSS so you can change there or overwrite the existing image file "images/misc/mobilelogo.png"
If you can;t see it being rendered, it could be that your brower doesn't support it, or if you have the options addon for this style you have enetered in text for the header which replaces the logo. @BadgerDog - could you link me to a page where it's not working. I think I might need admin logo to sort this out, but don't imagine it would take long. No members have liked this post.
