Could the owners of this website add a mobile version, given that it's impractical to use the desktop version on a mobile device?

Thanks

Kindred

there will be a responsive theme when this site upgrades to 2.1

poll removed as it was trollish and we're not changing until 2.1 anyway

We've been waiting for a mobile theme since 2015. I don't think a new version of SMF is needed to add mobile capability, only requires a few CSS alterations.

BAD management :o

The responsive curve theme works great.   Close enough until 2.1 is available:

Address the process rather than the outcome.  Then, the outcome becomes more likely.   - Fripp

No, he's demanding that we install a mobile theme here...


And the answer is - as I said - when 2.1 is installed, we will have a responsive theme. We will never have a mobile theme, though.

Incidentally, I have been using this site with a mobile device for years now with very little trouble.  While not optimized, it is not really difficult, either.

If you really feel that way, why not remove mobile usability on your own websites?

Kindred

I don't have a mobile version on my own site...   :P

But, let's be clear, your language continues to be trollish. It's not "mobile usability".  It's correctly called responsive design.
