Hi,
Some of my users are complaining that they get a mobile version of the forum on their mobile phones, even if they don't want to - When the URL doesn't have the trailing ?wap, ?wap2 or ?imode, just the index.php. Does SMF 2.0 automatically detect mobile phones and switches to the mobile version?
Smf does not do mobile that I know of. And mobile can't read php last time I checked (which was a while back so don't blame me if I'm wrong).
SMF does have three mobile versions.
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?imode
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?wap
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?wap2
I believe SMF tries to serve mobile pages to mobile phones since most can't handle the full page, or it would be costly in terms of bandwidth.
I think you can use
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?nowap
if just removing 'wap' from the url doesn't work.
SMF can interpret the browser-- thus making it switch modes.

SMF does do mobile, and PHP is interpreted on the server, which returns HTML and other stuff which can be interpreted by the user agent, as a response.

Thank you, I will tell my users to try with ?nowap.
If I have links to pages within the site that don't have the ;wap on the end because most people won't use it, is there a way for someone who starts with wap enabled to stay wap enabled without duplicating links?
