    Yup but it's the same on the official forum.. It's a solution, but a very very poor one and by the looks of it how this was designed.. SIGH....

        I'm turning it off as the style itself is FULL of bugs using an iphone/safari... The text on some threads is all down one side of the screen and the login icons are huge and in the middle of the screen....

        Check attachment. This is not on every thread but certainly on a lot of them and using iphone and samsung/andriod phones using their default browsers.

        EDIT: What's odd is when you find one of these threads that do not display properly if you hit refresh it will then load properly, most of the time!

        EDIT2: Seems to be only threads that have a lot of text content or a picture. So perhaps it's a loading timing issue?

            You need to allow users to change styles.

                How is that a poor way of doing it, it's been like this for all styles, it allows for a simple on/off switch.

                    Mobile style not detecting for us either. Only windows mobile was tested so far.

                        If you bothered to read previous posts from me on the thread then you would already know but to recap.

                        It allows non mobile device using members of sites to select it and use it and for sites which depend on adsence/advertising will (and are already on my site) be affected as users will notice the mobile style works on normal browsers and has no advertising so they use that style instead of the default one.

                          that is of course a major concern as the mobile theme is good enough to be used on a desktop web browser. less clutter. access to complete content.

                            I'm having the same problem... if I import the vbulletin-mobile-style.xml template as a child style, the page renders blank. If I then move that style to have no parent, it works fine. If I leave it as a child style to another, it will display the page with default stylevars if I delete the HTML tag's "ui-mobile-rendering" class and the "ui-page" class from the first body's first DIV tag. I can't yet get it to render with my custom parent style's stylevar values, though the stylevars seem to be inheriting correctly. Maybe this means the mobile style has a problem with those two classes?

                              Mobile Style is an independent style on my forum. Still shows blank on the homepage!

                                Playing some more, here's what I see. This css value is defaulting to hidden:

                                .ui-mobile-rendering > * {
                                visibility: hidden;
                                }


                                And this one is defaulting to none:

                                .ui-page {
                                display: none;
                                }




                                Disabling both CSS values (via Firebug) lets the page load... but it still doesn't pull my custom stylevars, even though they are inheriting

                                When checking this with no parent style, the visibility property doesn't exist and the display property exists but is overridden
