Mobile devices are the future and the future is now. :P
IMHO it would be nice if SMF would come with a mobile default theme along with the regular default theme and be able to auto detect what theme would be used when someone visits your site.
I know about tapatalk and other mobile themes, but I think it would be so much better if it was something SMF offered as a feature of their forum software.
We have every intention of having SMF be mobile compatible. Already working on a jquery mobile theme.
Awesome! Thank you,

I am also waiting for a Responsive SMF Theme :)
Can't wait for the mobile theme to be released!
Mobile theme comes with standart SMF forum like part of default theme (like curve etc.) and when an phone connect to site it's reach mobile smf theme.
karalahana.... what?
Although there is a WAP2 mode, it is not really a "mobile theme". At least it's not a "theme designed to be viewed on a smart phone-like device" which is what most people mean when they ask for a mobile theme.
That being said, there is some work on a mobile-optimized theme for 2.1
It's going to be a great day when this topic can be marked solved. :D
What's wrong with this?

It's old with no support.
It's a mod and not a default theme. ;)

It's still a valid (read useful) tool! I still use it on a HUGE forum. 2.0.3 Works flawlessly.
So it's no good simply because it doesn't come standard? It's your forum. :D
It's just not what I'm looking for, but thanks anyway.

Seems to kind of contradict the part in the description that says..." I have discontinued development and support of this theme a while back".

I don't know if it's too early to ask, but will the mobile theme be customizable? Like changing colors to match your forum's color scheme and adding our forum's logo to the header area?
It's probably too early to ask.

The edit I made was only to add the discontinued message, I haven't worked on the theme itself for over two years.
Hello
old version is not supported this type of the software in auto delete mobile them
but new technolgy in mobile then useful this type of software is use ??
Personally I hope SMF dont build in autodeteck. Its a constantly updating thing and there are modifications out there that do an excellent job and are regularly updated, whereas smf is updated less frequently.
A mobile theme, yes, but even there the landscape is constantly changing, what is mobile, is it wap, is it smartphone, is it galaxy s3 size, tablet size, theres no one size fits all anymore.
I have a tablet/mobile version, using the autodetect mod, but the theme is basically identical to the main forum theme, but the side panels are all removed, conts are changed and increased in size to be more visible, some extra text navigation is put in for devices without mouseover, and an extra login box is put at the bottom of each page floating. Works fine for tablets and larger screen smartphones, for smaller screens not so.
The trouble with the theme approach is that invariably they are the curve theme with all the images removed and the text left the same.
SMF Mobile theme, great, but leave off the auto detect please, or base it on screen size rather than browser, hardware etc.

Any news about that?
SMF 2.1 is responsive by default, so no separate mobile theme is required.
Glad to hear! Looking forward to 2.1!
Smf will not be using a mobile theme.
2.1 has a responsive theme design
This design will not be back ported to 2.0... But there are several responsive themes for 2.0 and one or two mobile only themes along with a (paid) mod to detect mobile access.

Um, do you know which ones they are, or should we randomly try?
Bloc has released 4 responsive themes (available on tinyportal) studio-001, studio-002, studio-003 and alphacentauri
We have also released the responsive curve mod which turns the default, Curve, theme into a more-or-less responsive theme
Of course, mods with modifications to main pages or their own pages will likely break this responsiveness
:)
Thanks Kindred!! ;)
Will check into these. It seems that one should set a forum's default theme to Curve and then let the individual members choose which mod they want to use. In this way, guests that visit via a mobile phone will be able to "see" everything correctly.
Be Well,
