@Rocketeer - As for the mobile device detection - dunno. You could edit the init.php file and manually modify the detection code to pickup those devices, but I think you probably need to lodge a support ticket with vBulletin.com

The Rocketeer 21 Dec 2011 09:00

Thank you Dartho, Yes that solves the logo problem. I also figured out that having the Text Option enabled in the Liteweight styles options causes the image to be replaced by text. (missed that setting before haha) :)

Now about the sidebar, I am actually referring to the CMS Sidebar, Grids or Widgets as you call it, you know the ones that appear in your CMS such as Menu, Polls, recent Forum posts etc?? I am trying to disable that or any widgets to appear in the CMS home page. That would make it look clean and pretty much complete.

I tried the CMSONLY style you gave me. Installed it as a Child Style of light weight, didn't notice any difference until when I went to my CMS / Homepage, I noticed that it doesn't show any articles. The header, nav and footer is there but the content is not present, and only shows this $column[1] .. I went inside the vbcms_grid_1 and vbcms_grid_2 and noticed it had a lot less code, only this actually..

so maybe you have a few lines of code gone missing there ?

And thanks I will probably open up a support ticket with vBulletin about their Mobile Detection Script not working with Opera Mini and this or any other style.

Happy Holidays :)

Can't really offer much more - I don't know much about CMS or sidebars at all - I don't actually use it (CMS), or vBuylletin 4 for that matter. That CMS Style works on the simple CMS setup I have on my test site (http://vbdev.org)

The Rocketeer 21 Dec 2011 09:57

Thanks Dartho. I am working on the CMS part, trying to see if it can be improved.
But I think you might have given me the wrong vbulletin-style-lightweight-1.0.3a-CMSONLY.xml version. lol. I fixed it a bit but I think its missing some codes on the vbcms_grid templates.

Mine Looks like this style on your test site: http://vbdev.org/?styleid=16

I think it should look like this one instead? - http://vbdev.org/?styleid=7

- notice on your test site how on styleid=16 there's no articles showing and it just shows $column[1], but on styleid=7 it shows the articles properly? Thats what I am talking about, styleid=16 must be the one you gave me, thats missing some edits.

:)

dartho 21 Dec 2011 10:40

Actually - I think it is something to do with vBulletin's template system as opposed me exporting incorrectly.

If I export styleid 7 on my test site, i do not get CMS customisations to that style (although viewing it, you can see they are there). If during the export process I select CMS as the product, we end up with that blank page with column[1] on it...


Here's what I had to do to make it work.
Import the Lightweight Style to a new style
Import the CMSONLY style and merge with lightweight style imported above
Import lightweight style again and merge with lightweight style above

See how that goes ...

The Rocketeer 21 Dec 2011 11:06

No Dartho, That merging technique didn't work out very well :(
But I have made a list of minor changes and code edits to make it work and look like styleid 7.

I will see how that goes and if I can post them here, so others like me can improve the look of their CMS. Maybe you can include them in the next update of this style. I really wish the merging thing worked though.

Let me know if you find any code edits worth mentioning or other ways to do this.

That's the thing - I can;t include them as vBulletin doesnlt export them with the style!


have a look in that CMSONLY XML file to see the templates and code I used on vbdev - add these in manually and I';m sure it will work out.

The issue seems to be a vbulletin bug perhaps? I've posted asking for assistance with it

Updated to 4.1.9 then went to install this from the latest version and got this:

This file was created using a different version of vBulletin from the one you are running.

Your version: 4.1.9
File version: 4.1.8

Having said all that - I'll try and point you in the right direction -

To strip all HTML tags from posts for a specific style ID, create a plugin as follows:

Product:vBulletin
Hook Location: Postbit Disaply Complete
Name: Strip HTML from Mobile Style Posts
Execution Order:5
Code:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

replace 'n' with teh styleid of your lightweight style.

the bit in teh code with teh <br><a> is HTML tags you wish to allow, if you want images, add in <img>, if you want <stong> add it in etc. Google php strip_tags

how can I allow Quote and Code ?

dartho 22 Dec 2011 21:33

Mmm.. try allowing <pre> tags at a guess...

iphone and a few other phones you are not able to use the attachments
it work under pc /desktop

Spectacular development, and much thanks. Just a couple of questions that I'm sure will be an easy answer for you.

1.) Upon entering a thread on the mobile version and trying to scroll, I am continuously returned to the bottom of the screen unless I keep my finger on the touchscreen mobile device. It automatically returns me to the bottom. Setting? Installed improperly? Just curious.

2.) Will a feature where you're able to view the thread starter be coming any time soon? Tons of requests on that. Also possibly a last poster or thread starter on the main forum page? Again, curious.

Thanks for your hard work, it is appreciated.

I can tell you how to remove the attachment button or implement fixes people find, but it works on my phone and that's what it is developed for.

I've not heard of that one before? What type of device?

That would be easy to add in if you wish - where abouts do you want the thread starter name to appear?
