I would like to know these additions, your forum responds so nice to different screen dimensions...
So, to be honest, it was a huge discussion on our forum but we finally just decided to say "screw you Google" and we went back to the full SMF desktop theme for all devices.

The handling of images was the biggest issue for our members. Any large image would load out side of the view port and with no possible means of zooming or scrolling, if left essentially all attachments and inline images unable to be viewed.

So as of a few months ago we dropped mobile support all together. Google search can suck it haha

I built a test forum to test out the Responsive Curve and see how it does with some ads and ad images on my site.  And that leads to my chicken and egg question:

--I only need the Ad Management mod and the Responsive Curve mod - just those two.  Which am I supposed to install first? 

I've got one more question:

--Do you have links that give guidelines for what kind of imagines and ads it will and will not work based on phone, etc?  (I have two medium sized Google banners and a Google square.  I'm assuming that it will shrink the banners to where they are useless.)

The order should not matter... Regarding your second question however no we have no specifics on what adverts should be included or not because that is outside the function of this mod / feature. Responsive curve makes your basic site responsive, more or less. Mods such as an advert mod, portal mod, or any other man for that matter, may affect the responsiveness

It shouldn't matter which you'll install first ;)

Also you need to check Ad Management support topic. Last I remember it wasn't properly "responsive'ing" :P
Furthermore, as far as I remember, Google itself also doesn't like having its ads resized. In a test forum I worked recently we chose to hide the MODs (via CSS) in the mobile resolutions...

if you are using SMF 2.0 RC3 you should upgrade to 2.0.11 ASAP and not worry about this mod until that is done for security reasons.

So, do you not recommend installing this mod in a productive forum? Any clues of when to expect a release?

Kindred

this mod works just fine in v2.0.11
in this case (as opposed to the actual software) beta is not an indicator that it should not be used in production.

installed it yesterday and it is such a nice feature! Very well done!!

I'm looking for assistance with a problem I am running into on a install of the 51beta on a fresh 2.0.11 forum. When I make the responsive curve theme active none of the images/styles load and I receive the following messages in chrome:

Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "forum.somedomain.com/Themes/responsive_curve_beta51/css/index.css?fin20".
index.php:1 Refused to execute script from 'hxxp:forum.somedomain.com/Themes/responsive_curve_beta51/scripts/theme.js?fin20' [nonactive]; because its MIME type ('text/html') is not executable, and strict MIME type checking is enabled.


Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

If you uninstall the MOD, does it work again?
Does it work in other browsers?

You need to look at the Developer Tools. The "Network" tab should tell you what's being loaded. Can we have a link?

That's nice...   what makes you think that any answer to you has changed since you still have yet to display the SMF copyright on your site?

Maybe a complaint from SMF to his hosting company complaining about copyright infringement issues might get his attention.

Kindred

Oh...  it is LEGAL for him to remove it.   That's one thing that became allowed when we went to the BSD license.
The thing is -- this user, in particular, has been told numerous times that - while he is legally allowed to remove the copyright; by doing so, he is essentially stating that he doesn't need the help or support of the SMF community.... and therefore, we don't give it.   In general, we do not provide support to people who have removed the copyright - in specific, this user has exhausted any good will and patience we might have once had toward him (going so far as to try creating a sock-puppet account to get around having been noticed without the copyright)

Basically, it's simple...
If you don't need help from the community to run your forum - do what you want.
If you DO need or want help, leave the copyright in place.

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. I wasn't aware of the license issues since I haven't read the license since my salad days at SMF.

Does SMF have any objection to leaving the notice but removing the hot links? And removing the SMF version info? Just leave the copyright and toss the rest overboard?

I myself would never remove the copyright notice text. I'm proud to be running the best open source forum software available on the Internet! Plus, I have a bit of my own blood spilled to make SMF better.

Kindred

We take those on a case by case basis...    although removing the version sometimes makes it harder to provide support --   and the main reason people do that is because they (mistakenly) think that it provides some protection from hackers

I'm not going to mention the URL of my site at SMF anyway so having the version stated in my footer has no effect on any support. In any case most of my support requests involve advice on writing my modifications which are all intended for the current SMF release, and otherwise I specifically mention my version in my few if any support requests.

My reason for reducing it to the minimum has nothing to do with hacking. I just prefer my site to have a clean look. My members could give a rat's hiney what version I'm running! They don't even know what an SMF is. ;)

Antes

Lets step up for stable release :P, after releasing Beta 5 we didn't find any UX problem or big issues (can be resolved with CSS).

Version 1.0.0 - March 21 2016
! Padding of select and imput boxes enlarged to avoid bad UX.
! Admin menu changes to improve its responsiveness.
! fix for main_menu weird background creation on tap/hover.
