KWWHunction Mobile Design Ideas (Got talent?)

[brandont]

I don't disagree, from the research I've done IPB is probably a better upgrade path than vBulletin. But in order to switch software it's a massive job and one that I'd want to get perfect. No matter what it's going to upset members, some people just don't like change.

If we're on vBulletin for 3 month, 6 months, 12 months longer... Creating this Mobile skin is worth it IMO. I am not too bothered about EOL, the software is stable. Having said that I don't want to be on it forever.

where do u get dat facebook thingy dude

brandont Reviewed by brandont on 15th Mar 2011. KWWHunction Mobile Design Ideas (Got talent?) I recently threw around the idea of a mobile skin for KWWHunction. I do intend to put this into practice and with a little luck hopefully have something in place some time within the next month. This is exciting, for a few reasons... I like checking KWWHunction when I am out and about, and this will make it so much easier. The whole idea is to optimize for medium to large size phones so that no zooming is required yet all critical information is left in tact for an enjoyable browsing Rating: 5

Yes is a massive job, but i think long term it would be a good idea to do it, as ipb are innovating, while vBulletin are dieing and imitating.

I agree it will upset some members becuase people don't like change, but the longer it is left the more they think it can just stay how it is, and they still wont like change 3 months, even 2 years down the line, so might aswell get it over with now... IPB 3 offers some great features not just for members but mods aswell, for members the PM system is much nicer instead of 50 thousand pms where you have a conversation with the same persion its stored as one conversation.

The thing if people really like this skin so much then you could always get the skin converted over to ipb aswell and it can be called KWWH V1 or something...

If you dont want converting to IPB to be a massive pain, then they offer a conversion service, so while you are sleeping or working etc there profesionals can do it, which means no stress for you, when you come on you have a nicely working ipb forum.

How about we trial a already made mobile skin for Vbulletin? because I'm sure we have a wide selection of mobiles us members can test it on

Myself I have a Blackberry and a HTC HD2.

I don't think theres a need to switch to IPB to be honest. People are used to this forum the way it is plus switching to IPB means everyone will have to reset password, that may not sound hard but trust me you lose members when stuff like this happens.
