Lightweight Style Options for "Lightweight Style"
Mod Version: 1.0.0, by dartho (Coder/Designer) dartho is offline
Developer Last Online: Aug 2022 I like it Show Printable Version Email this Page

vB Version: 4.0.6 Rating: (29 votes - 4.90 average) Installs: 438
Released: 26 Aug 2010 Last Update: Never Downloads: 2190
Not Supported DB Changes Uses Plugins Auto-Template  

Firstly - this is only of use if you have installed the Lightweight Style

Secondly - make sure you read the notes if you use the Mobile Style and the Mobile Style Options addon.

OK, now that the formalities are over, this is an add-on to the Lightweight Style It allows you to customise a few common parts of the style without needing to edit templates.

It also adds in options to disable some products when the Lightweight style is being used and optionally adds "Posted by Mobile Device" type text into posts created using the mobile style.

* Optionally adds links to default style (in footer or header)
* Optionally add 'Posted Via Mobile' message to new posts/threads (message can be customised)
* Optionally display "What's Going On" box in forum home
* Optionally display Style Chooser in footer
* Set 'Home' link URL (rather than editing templates)
* Can optionally hide mobile style from Style Chooser

Version Control:
1.0.0 - 26 AUG 2010 - Initial Release

Notes:
If you have installed "Mobile Style Options" (vb4) and make use of the 'Posted via Mobile Device' option, uninstalling Mobile Style Options will remove all records of posts made using the Mobile Style. The posts will of course remain, just the message will be gone. If this is not an issue for you - uninstall it BEFORE installing this addon. If you wish to keep those records, rather than uninstall it, disable it OR edit the product via Product Manager and remove all the uninstall code, save and then uninstall (this last option is the cleanest)

Running them both is OK, but you will need to disable the "Add Posted By Mobile Message to Post" plugin on the Mobile Style Options product. Uninstalling one of them will affect the other and cause errors as they share database columns. If you uninstall one without making the uninstall code changes, you shjould uninstall both and then re-install the one you are staying with.

scrolls down happily in my testing? I don't think there are any tags to control that behaviour - perhaps outdated browsers on users devices, or a device specific issue?

Hi dartho, I seem to have a bit of a major problem. I installed the Lightweight style, which was all fine, and then tried to install the Lightweight style options product, and it seemed to hang during the install. In the product manager, the product didn't seem to install, but then I then went to the front page of my forums and got this: http://forums.relicnews.com.

I deleted the lightweight style, but it still remains. This happens using the vBulletin default style and my custom style. I had no previous mobile styles installed.

Please help!

It looks like teh master style got overwritten. I don't know how this can happen. You will need to upload tools.php from the vbUlletin install package to your admincp and restore your master style (very first setting)

Unfortunately, it seems to overwrite the master style every time I import the lightweight style. This is using v 4.0.7. Very strange... any ideas, dartho?

It really shouldn't be! When importing the style, are you what options are you choosing? Try choosing the default style as the parent

Quick question before I enable this, is there anyway to bypass the vbulletin CMS and go straight to forums ?

not using this addon, however, check this post in the style thread: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...67#post2097867

The "Post by Mobile Device" doesn't work for me either on both the default and my custom theme.

Thanks!
