[DEV] phpBBmobile Device Browser Style

[Sniper_E]

I'll look at it later. My page looks a lot different than yours for some reason.
Did you change the search_body.html template also?

Here is what I see with the above edits on the search_results.html template:

Compare what you discribed with what you see in the subsilver2's search results page.

EDIT:Dude, I'm working on the search pages not the active topic pages.
The active topics may be edits needed in the top of the search_results.html template.
I didn't focus on the top of that page yet. I need a minute.

Here is what I see when viewing the active topics in my 240x320 mobile view:

active_topics.gif

This is the top of that template, which needs the work. I'll work on this.
Mobile devices have a 240px X 320px screen so 2 columns will not happen.
I try to fit all in the 320x240 view, but it has to squeeze in the 240x320 view also.

Aight Lucian....

I have updated the codes for the search_results.html template in this post: viewtopic.php?p=105918#p105918
Update your search_results.html template with that code and see how it looks. I just rewrote it from scratch.

Tanks for the nudge.... I've been slack on this style for awhile.
I've updated the mobile style here as well so you can check it out here too.

Please call me Chris:-)

I did the updates, didn't realize I had to do the Search_body.html as well and now it is working perfectly!!!
The single column style is fine... No problem to navigate it.
I must say that this is a great addition to any forum. I have been checking in and answering posts using my Blackberry... Sweet.

I really thank you for the effort you have put into this.

Hey Chris,

I just noticed after you bringing this layout problem up in the Active Topics page,
that I took the "View active topics" link out of the index page earlier. To put it back in, do this:

Open the index_body.html

FIND

Code: Select all

         <!-- IF S_DISPLAY_SEARCH -->
         <td width="50%"><a href="{U_SEARCH_NEW}">{L_SEARCH_NEW}</a></td>
         <td width="50%" align="{S_CONTENT_FLOW_END}"><a href="{U_SEARCH_SELF}">{L_SEARCH_SELF}</a></td>
         <!-- ENDIF -->

REPLACE WITH

Code: Select all

         <!-- IF S_DISPLAY_SEARCH -->
         <td width="50%"><a href="{U_SEARCH_NEW}">{L_SEARCH_NEW}</a><br />
            <a href="{U_SEARCH_UNANSWERED}">{L_SEARCH_UNANSWERED}</a></td>
         <td width="50%" align="{S_CONTENT_FLOW_END}"><a href="{U_SEARCH_SELF}">{L_SEARCH_SELF}</a><br />
            <a href="{U_SEARCH_ACTIVE_TOPICS}">{L_SEARCH_ACTIVE_TOPICS}</a></td>
         <!-- ENDIF -->

SAVE and Refresh Templates

I have users that are getting a different template when they log in via mobile.

they said they used to get the mobile theme, now it's going to one of the other ones.

When I log in, I get the right one.

Any idea what would cause this??

[Sniper_E]

The ony thing that could cause their mobile device to pick up on a different style is the mobile browser detection script.

They need to connect to your site on their mobile device so that you can go to Who's Online and copy their mobile device browser info.

Then make sure their device is listed in the array list.

You do know that the mobile device style is not suppose to be set as active? It is not suppose to be a selectable choice in their UCP.

Check your array list in the session.php file and make sure they are listed.

I knew it wasn't supposed to be active, but I had to make it active, so that they could get to it since it was sending them to the wrong theme.

But I'll keep an eye on their info. Thank you!

[zenrei]

ok, so I got one of them to do it... and what I get is:

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows CE; Sprint:PPC-6700; PPC; 240x320)

I'm assuming I have to add sprint or PCC to this part of the script?

Code: Select all

$browsers_array = array('240x320', '320x240', 'apple', 'blackberry', 'diablo', 'Googlebot-Mobile', 'iphone', 'mobilephone', 'iemobile', 'microB', 'minimobile', 'mobile', 'opera mini', 'pda', 'phone', 'pocket', 'psp', 'sharp', 'symbian', 't-shark', 'wireless', 'X11');
      foreach ($browsers_array as $ua_match)
      {
         if (strpos($user_browser, $ua_match) !== false)
         {
            $style = 3;
            $this->data['is_mobile'] = true;
            break;
         }
      }
      // end mobile browser detection mod

[Sniper_E]

Yes, try adding 'sprint', to your array list and see what happens.

'iphone' needs to be removed because they can view a full page.

After adding 'sprint' have them select a normal style for their default style on their desktop. Make your mobile style so it is not active. You want the script to force the mobile style on their detected mobile browser without it being their default style.

Let me know how it goes.
