Making WP Site Mobile-Friendly?

by KenTheriot
9 replies
I tried a plugin called WordPress-Mobile-Pack, but it causes strange misbehavior on my site (unexplained broken links for starters). Is there something else I can do to optimize my site for mobile devices? I'm not married to the use of a plugin, though my coding skills are middling at best.

Thanks!

Ken

      Looks quite nice. I may check out the free version to see if I like it before buying it.

    We use WPTouch on almost every site. Works great for Smart phones. Not so good for BlackBerry phones.

    ~ But I still use it.

    I'm currently using MobilePress on all my wp blogs. No complains so far, and best of all it's free.

    You guys are right WP Touch does awesome job and if you wanna check in Mozilla how your website looks like in mobile version you can install mozilla addon called User Agent Switcher.

        I just installed it on mobilewebspot.com and it's awesome ... so awesome that I sprung for the developer's license. Makes mobilizing a blog a cinch.

    Another option is MobilePress, (a free plugin available through the WP search function) I use it quite a bit.

    i havent found a plugin that styles the site consistent with the main theme... only found templates that have a built in mobile version of the site... but then they dont have the functionality of choosing which pages i want showing/not showing in the mobile version of the site, niether does it give you any control over menu structures ie using menus over buttons etc... so i have resorted to building my own script
