ChiefsPlanet Mobile CP Style - Page 2

**DaFace** · 05-06-2008, 06:47 PM

In case anyone cares...

Kyle got a mobile style up and running a while back that would let you easily browse the Planet from a cell phone, iPod, WindowsCE-based device, etc. Unfortunately, it kinda got screwy when we went to the new (beta) version of vBulletin.

Anyway, it should be working again. At least it works from my phone anyway. You don't have to do anything special - just browse to http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB from your phone. That's it!

Hopefully this will be useful to at least a few of you.

What's hard to read? If it's a color thing, we might be able to find someone who doesn't suck at CSS to modify them. If it's a size issue, there's probably not much improvement to be made there.

Is there a direct link because on my phone (Treo 600) it appears to be just trying to load the standard page (and throwing a "page to large to display) error.

You have to use the /BB link I posted in the header, if that's what you're asking. www.chiefsplanet.com itself won't do it.

I used that with the /BB and it still said too large.

First thing that comes up is a message stating that I am being redirected to the correct page. Then it says:
Large page. Content incompletely shown.

Hmm....have you ever been able to browse the Planet from your phone before?

Never really tried. I got a lot of it to come up. Even managed to log in after some looking around. But I still was not able to post a reply.

FTR, I have a Sony Ericsson w300i on Cingular.

K...with the content that DID come up, did it look loosely like the normal forum, or was it mostly blue? The "mobile template" has no graphics at all and is a combination of blues and yellows.

It could be that the software isn't recognizing your particular browser and isn't kicking you into the mobile style.

I had a similar problem last night. Try this url, it worked for me:

Mostly white with gray and black(or really dark gray) down the middle.

Thanks for trying but that didn't bring up anything but an error message.
