Suggestion SB Mobile Style - Upgrade...

[El Orans]

Our current Mobile style is not up-to-date with all functionality vBulletin now offers.

Which features in the SB Default style should be implemented in the Mobile Style first?

Is there a way to "force" a reload when u click a link?

As many of us have this issue when surfing via blackberry's I am sure it is a BB issue, but as none of us are going to be able change the BB software, maybe we can force it to accept a refreshed page everytime a link is clicked... Maybe Mike_s can elaborate as he isn't mobile...

Please please please!!!!

Unfortunately, that would require changing the vB core.

As for any other changes: I don't think any are needed. Adding more will just clutter up the precious screen space. If someone really wants to thank a post they can just wait till they get home and use the regular skin for that. If you want to add/edit/view/etc groups you can wait till you can use the full skin, etc. Don't take up valuable screen space with fluff.

Adding the Thanks button is still under consideration. No decision has been made yet.

Groups would be displayed on its own page, it would not interfere with other functionality.

Feel free to post pix of the PDA's screens to give me an impression of the available screen space.

As for defaulting to the mobile skin: You can sniff $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT'] to look for wap and if so serve the mobile skin.

Unfortunately, that would also require changing the vB core.

I've got the same problem.....

even after I read it, all the PM's still show up in BOLD because SB mobile won't refresh properly.

Unfortunately, that is not part of the presentation layer (ie the SB Mobile Style Templates) I'm currently changing.

What would changing the VB Core consist of? rebuilding the normal VB core?

I would think this would be a good case for the development server Pete talked about when the new servers were fielded...

I'd rather see the core edited to improve things rather then spending time on fluff.

Here ya go. It was actually kinda hard to get a clear shot of my screen

On my PC I agree with you. The mobile version does not have them in bold though.

Unread PMs are displayed in Bold. At least when I use SB Mobile on my PC. Perhaps this issue is device-specific?

Maybe a * can be added. I'll need to look into that.

Great. Thanks
