Theme Name: ZetaFresh Mobile
Creator: Helena with help from the Zathyus team

At first glance, this mobile theme might seem similar to Blueline Mobile, but there is more under the hood in this version. Unlike some of the stripped down mobile themes, ZetaFresh Mobile has nearly all the function of a full theme, just re-arranged a bit. It also improves on my other attempts, in that it integrates with your mobile browser features to display dropdown menus, and replaces many of the existing text links with a simpler, less cluttered icon system. Moderation is easier on this version, and even the calendar is more small-screen friendly. Some responsive design elements have been added to create a pleasant experience even on small phone screens.

Mobile themes still have to work around the size of the standard ads, and there are a few less than graceful treatments in spacing and borders that you may notice, but those should not affect function. This theme is heavily modified so it will work best on boards with minimal extra coding.

I named the theme ZetaFresh because it is modeled on the ZetaBoards default but features a crisper blue, streamlined design details and a softer orange. A companion theme in a full forum design may be released at a later date.

Device compatibility: ZFM has been tested on iPhone4 (safari) and the Nexus7 tablet (android) and should appear properly on screens with a width of 320px or more, but is still quite useable even at a 240 width resolution. It has also been reported to be fine on Windows phones.

Preview:


Graphix: Copy/paste the image codes from this HTML Image Macros Page or use the quick image tranfer via developer tool method linked on the page. Images will remain permanently hosted.

Setup Notes:
  • The submenu will automatically direct links to your board as soon as the theme is installed. You may edit, add or subtract links as you wish in the Theme Layout. The submenu is accessed by this button at the top right:
  • The Portal link will only show the content installed in the Portal News (center section) and the Portal Footer.
  • Although you can install a small image banner (max 225px x 30px) in the Theme Settings, it is recommended to use your board name text instead. This will keep the screen layout simple and compact. Instructions are below.
  • The Mark Forums Read and Mark Topics Read index links have been hidden to reduce clutter, but if you would like to use them, please see THIS POST for instructions on how to make the simple CSS edit.
