[Suggestion] Mobile theme for Niftyhost! - Serial Thrilla - 05-30-2011

Dear Zack and dear Yoruichi Shihouin,

I want suggest you a really great thing that would help people with cell phones browse your site easier (at least the forum part). Its a mobile theme with user-agent detection and it works with all phones that are currently on the market. From Symbian to Android and more. I use it at my own forum and it works great so far. Decrease the load time even more (as I see you use Cloudflare to boost your sites performance and security).

So about the theme. Its pretty light with a small amount of images. The most is pure HTML (colours and stuff). Its free for all users, but please keep in mind its pretty beta and so far it does not look like the developer is working on it. Though its beta I have to say it works really awesome, you can add more user-agent strings if you miss one. You can modify the templates and add things you want (I added a shoutbox at my forum :D).

Wow very nice I think this should be added too

This is a great idea (considering I'm posting this from my iPhone). iWebkit is a good option but I'm not sure if it is available for MyBB forums.

That theme is better then iWebkit.


RE: [Suggestion] Mobile theme for Niftyhost! - meds - 05-30-2011

This is iWebkit

Seriously, I don't care about Apple... The theme supports all devices. So why only install iWebKit for you rich guys with your toy phone?


RE: [Suggestion] Mobile theme for Niftyhost! - meds - 05-30-2011

Whoops... I thought iWebkit supported all devices too. Oh well I've actually never used in my site. Anyway I'm fine with any mobile theme as long as its implemented.
Yeah I did some googling and GoMobile is probably the best option.

Sorry for bumping this old getting topic, gentleman.

If noone is interested just close the topic or remove it.

Why didn't I see this before? This is a good idea. Let's do it.

I have no clue, I guess because it was bumped back through the topics about "my site is missing" and so on.

I would really love the theme. Its pain to browse NiftyHost on my phone (on all phones) because its a lot to load for phones and the connections are not really fast (unless you use WiFi).
