Anyone supporting WAP/mobile phone users?


Some of my users asked to be able to browse from their mobile phones, so I created a wap subdomain and installed the Mobi template. They checked it out, alternately sang my praises and complained about the template, and now they barely touch the wap version. What's your experience with trying to support mobile phones been like?

Re: Anyone supporting WAP/mobile phone users?


I had posed the question to folks and the ones using blackberry were okay with how the site is configured. So, I haven't done anything else yet. But, on my trip to Disney World last week, I didn't have access to a laptop and wanted to log into the site from my wife's Treo and it didn't seem to work too well.

Which hack do you have installed Chase?

I've thought about adding something here, but the site works fine on our phones.

Thanks Chase!

Even though it's in 'beta', it still works with no issues? Which skin did you use?

Also, if you're running Adsense, they have Google ads for mobile phones, though adding them is a bit of a different process
