VB4 - Mobile Phone / iPhone / PDA Detection and Style Assignment
![]() Developer Last Online: Apr 2019 ![]() ![]() ![]()
This is a direct port from my 3.x versions which detects most mobile phones, iPhones, PDAs and other mobile browsing devices and automatically presents the user with a specific vBulletin style.
The one significant addition over previous versions is that a user can now over-ride the style assignment - more information in the notes section. This will probably work with previous versions of vBulletin (but untested) What can it do?Detects most mobile phones and presents the user with a specific style. 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 0.5 Uninstall previous versions 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, 3.6 or 3.7 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. See HERE for a lightweight vBulletin 4 style to go along with this addon Version Control 1.0.0 - Initial Release 1.0.1 - Add option to enable/disable overriding style assignment. Notes Previous versions of this mod have forced a mobile device to a specific style, this is no longer the case! If a user now follows a link which changes the style (using a URL parameter of "styleid=xx") they will then be given that style for the rest of their session. If they close their browser and reload your site, they will then be detected again. Cookies must be enabled on the users browser for overriding detection to work To Do

Sorry - where I said "The every style hack" - I meant the "The sidebars everywhere hack", but all else remains same

I knew what you meant.
![]() Unfortunately, that code did not do the trick. I added it to the disable addons option area just as you instructed, logged out from my iPhone, cleared cookies/cache/history, and then browsed to my site. The sidebar is still there. Do you have any other suggestions? Dexter... No members have liked this post.

This might work - edit all the everysidebar templates in the lightweight style only, and delete the entire contents of each one

clear your cookies, or if you want to be selective, just clear he cookies for your site and try again. As soon as you manually select a style, you are effectively turning off auto-detection. In theory, closing all your browser windows should then re-instate it, but it depends on your browser.

Would be nice if we could get this working with vB 3.8 as having the option to allow users to decide on whether or not they actually want to view a mobile version is the way to go.

Yeah I tried it on VB 3.8.6 & 3.8.7b1 and it doesn't work at all. I even uninstalled the 3.8.6 version of this mod FIRST which was working just fine. Then I installed this version and it wasn't having any affect whatsoever. I was testing with my iPhone 4.

try again , but clear cookies first. If you have manually chosen a style at any time, you have essentially overridden autodetection
