Would you like to see a Mobile-themed skin implemented? Keep in mind no new skins have been added for over a year...

Yes, the low-fi option is nice - except you can't post from your phone, PDA or Playstation Portable through that method.

You can post replies in the Lo-Fi version, you just can't start topics. As for a mobile version of the forums, I am all for it, but I am afraid it needs to be custom coded because no one made a mobile version for IPB 1.3 unfortunately... and upgrading isn't an option. pinch2.gif

Voted truthfully, but I knew it could not happen without custom code.

Perry put the reply option in lofi mostly for me. Thanks again! smile.gif

Is there a way to have the site redirect to the lo-fi version automatically if you are using a smartphone?

For instance, there is this sports network in Canada (the literal equivalent to ESPN) called TSN. When I go to their site tsn.ca it automatically loads a mobile version m.tsn.ca.

I voted yes, though I don't have a smartphone addiction. tongue.gif
I use an iPhone a bit, so a mobile site would be cool. It would certainly be the forum!s biggest advancement in a while.

One cool feature would be for post to autoedit a not in there saying that the post was from a mobile device, I've seen several different forums have this feature.

I thought it was still under testing... ^^

Glad to see it's operational... Just one issue I have is the button for logging in and such... not overly obvious that the button gives you that info...

Just checked this out, you should have thrown me in on the testing, since I'm always bored at work anyway!

Everything's nice and big at the default size, easy to tap, I love it.

Uh... how do I access it? facepalm.gif

1. With a smartphone or...
2. Select it as a forum skin (named IDW Mobile (Import))

Btw, on a normal computer, it looks good. But, on a smartphone it would look even better!

Guys, this thing is not fully online yet. There are MANY bugs that need to fixed. Please don't flood my inbox with bugs report just yet. For the time being, feel free to use it, it sure beats the Lo-Fi skin because this mobile skin offers many more basic features.

First time signing in on autodetect, user settings take preference and it resorts to whatever skin you had selected prior ( Kitty in my case )

Can't think of an easy way to resolve it though.

I'm thinking about it. I think I will have to resort to using cookies to save the preferences. We'll see!

So the preference would be by cookies instead of saved preferences?

Sounds like an idea.
