New Mobile Template

Post by hybrid »

For those of you who use mobile mostly, I've been working on a mobile template.
It's centered around the Forums at the moment, but seeing as most users only use the Forum 99% of the time, it should work fine.
It's still very much a work in progress at the moment, so there might be some things that look a bit strange.

You can either go into your preferences here:

And change your theme to mobile, or if you switch between mobile and desktop, you can just click either "Go Mobile" or "Go Desktop" at the top of the screen to switch between them.

Eventually I want to develop apps for Android and iOS that will directly open the forum in a very simple format that is optimised for mobile devices.
If you have any suggestions to improve the mobile template, let me know and I will see if I can incorporate the changes.

It's already a big improvement.

Previously the right column would scroll through the centre of my phone screen. All good now though.

Thanks

Yeah the side columns are completely gone from the mobile template now.
I also decided to switch back to text links instead of buttons.

While the buttons made it easier to press on for touch screens, they looked pretty horrible.
So I increased the text size instead, which should make the links easier to click on without fat fingering them.
