[Forum] mobile user cannot change to mobile template

[emp1re]

We have a strange problem.Since we upgraded to version 4.1.8 (was 4.1.7) mobile users cannot change to mobile skin. If they want to change from default to mobile it just returns to default.However when they change on their PC to mobile skin it works fine..!!. It goes wrong with allmost every mobile, not just a pariculary brand or type..I also tried making another default template changed vbull to make that one default and started testing.. Mobile users also where unable to change the template, but on PC it worked fine.anyone an idea ?

i dont know exactle what kind of software works .. i have an alcatel OT-799 that doesnt do it.. Also other users with nokia phones do have this trouble.
Just upgraded to version 4.1.9 and had no luck.. also just bought mobile suite for 199 dollars (had publishing suite) and also no luck..

I'm having same problem with users using Android phones, keeps reverting back to our default style.

I do NOT have VBSEO installed.

and also vbseo installed ?

I've never had vbseo installed and have this problem.

The problem remains even when I disable hooks.

Seems a lot of people are having the same difficulty;

"Allow Users To Change Styles" in "Settings -> Style & Language Settings" seems to have been broke since upgrading to 4.1.8.

Works okay now.. had to change some things in admincp

Settings>options>Style and language options ..
I had Default Style for Old Mobile Browser and Default Style for Modern Mobile Browser set to none.. Changed it to Mobile and it did the trick.

Maybe this can help you

It's only just stated since 4.1.9 for most of us.

Sorry, misread, please dont copy/paste your post to multiple threads though.

I'm on 4.1.8 and the problem exists.

I'm not upgrading to 4.1.9 because evidently, the problem persists - having checked forums on the upgrade and having read whats relayed here.
