Can someone clarify the directions included with the download? I have made a subdomain (http:..m.mysite.org) pointed to the directory "m" where i made an index.php file as instructed to that calls settemplate.php to set the template to advancedmobile. That works fine, but then the problem is that on "regular" browsers, everyone is stuck with the mobile template.

For a paid template, more verbose instructions would be much appreciated...

In an ideal world someone would only be visiting the mobile template through a mobile device and therefore not have the need to change the template.

If you do happen to visit the mobile version of the site on a "regular" browser you can use the settemplate feature to change it back.
It's as simple as going to yoursite/settemplate.php and click on wistie
You can also access a template directly by the template's name through the url like yoursite/settemplate.php?template=wistie

Hope that helps

OK, so that is the way it is supposed to work....I see.

I guess what I need to peruse is a browser detection wrapper, thus if iPhone Safari or another mobile browser is detected, it will settemplate to advancedmobile. Humm, but that will not really work if two or more users are browsing simultaneously (for instance, two iphone users our and about and one person at home). I guess I need suggestions on a per-session variable to settemplate. Or maybe some kind of user-characterization, where mobile browsers are assigned to usergroup 2 and thus the wrapper can be an "if usergroup=2" type of thing to make them see advancedmobile, while others see fusion template.

Any suggestions would be most appreciated!

Does anyone have suggestions for this issue? Settemplate does not work for multiuser sites....you can simply not change templates for ALL users on the fly - there must be some user_agent control variable.... I already have changed the .htaccess file to detect iphone/ipod browsers and send them to a specified file. Is there some easy way to just have them see the advancedmobile template? advancedmobile looks nice, but not so nice on a large screen....

any suggestions are more than welcome - anyone out there?

I'm not sure I fully understand your customization issue.

Why would you need to change a template for ALL users on the fly?

If a user is on a mobile device and visits your site using m.yoursite.com it will show them yoursite in the mobile template.
If a user visits yoursite.com on a computer using a regular web browser they will see what ever default template you have configured in the admin panel.

It still sounds like you are trying to view the mobile template through a standard PC web browser.

I think there is a misunderstanding occurring. And i think my issue is shared by others in the past (found this outdated post: http://forums.pligg.com/pligg-templa...html#post43633 along with a few others - but the fixes presented there do not seem to apply to pligg 1.0+)

So, let me explain from the beginning because clearly i am missing something that is obvious to others, but maybe my post will help clarify this for people like me if there is a straightforward solution.

I have a website where i use fusion template for regular browsers. Fine. But, i want a separate template for iphone/ipod users - and I bought advancedmoble to customize. However, when i follow the included instructions with advancedmobile by redirecting iphone users to a new php file that calls settemplate.php and changes the template to advancedmobile, it changes the DEFAULT template to advancedmobile. I have an iphone and ipod and emulators - this is not me misunderstanding browsers. I do not want to see advancedmobile on a regular browser....it just happens after you access my site from a mobile device....does that make sense? like i said, i am SURE i am missing something - and hence, the reason why i am asking here..... please educate me (and future readers of this post!!!!

Best!

Hello,
i try to use the advanced mobile template for my two domains like myside.net and myside.mobi .
I could not handle this (Wrong security code) because of two different domains, how must I exactly configure this?
I tried a workaround and forward from myside.mobi to mobile.myside.net and configure the rest like it’s written in the readme file. O.K. that works fine.
mobile.myside.net =>myside.net (template=advancedmobile)
But now all requests to myside.net have the template advancedmobile until I delete all cookies in my Browser. After that myside.net has the template= silverbullet.
Is there a way to set template= silverbullet when you just call myside.net?
Thanks,
Andreas

I'm facing the exact same problem. I'm positive I'm doing something wrong, however I have no clue what it is.

Any help on how you managed to solve this issue?

Thanks.

It's frustrating that I'm following the exact steps described in the installation file and I get the following error: "Wrong security code".

I get this when trying to access the mobile site via my laptop and via my mobile phone.

Any help? Or since I bought this template, I should log a call via the Helpdesk?
