mobile friendly plans?

12 Replies, 4186 Views

It's not very nice to use on a mobile, lots of left right swiping to see content. Any plans to add a mobile friendly version/theme that is more 'inline'? Hear good things about WallBB on the MyBB support forums.

Nowadays I contribute casually, and read more from my phone, than I do from my desktop, which is like everyone else I guess from Google Analytics stats.

@Pollux is working on themes, I'll try to make sure he sees your post, Max. He has already contributed one: Psi Quest, which you can test out by scrolling right to the bottom of the page and selecting "Psi Quest" in the drop-down that (by default) reads "Default". Not sure whether that's more mobile-friendly than the default, but hopefully you can test and let us know.

A little better... but doesn't shrink enough to go properly 'inline', with text that is large enough to read.

If everything works there should be a theme available soon called W3 Repsonsive that is made particularly mobile-friendly.>> https://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=view&pid=776

This is awesome news!
A mobile friendly theme is now installed, with the totally unimaginative name; Mobile Friendly.

So check for it in your settings, activate it, and let me know how it works out - and if there are any bugs, missing tools/setting etc.

Excellent!

Do we lose the like function, or am I missing something?

The Likes should work now - and the logo should be in place.

Thanks for your good work here, Pollux. I'm unlikely to visit the site on a mobile device, but this is very good news for those who do.
